What I like about this story is that you seem to have given her your number.
Hope springs eternal for pre-teen boys and the college-aged chicks that they're eyeballing.

and there is actual evidence (eg photos)....Moore is allegedly quite the unique sexual predator - with a range of 15 to 28 year old...I guess all the 60+ year old he assaulted have since passed and can't stump for the Democrats on this race.....maybe somebody mentioned him fondling them in there will...lemme check today's edition of the Washington Post.

To be clear, Water Dog thinks a 30+ year old DA calling a high school principal and having a teenage girl pulled out of Trig so he can pressure her into a date is perfectly fine behavior.
(And before he casts doubt on that accuser too, note he said everything else he was accused of falls in the realm of perfectly fine behavior people could do when we all weren't a bunch of babies.)
Have you engaged in any of this totally fine behavior Water Dog?
It needs to be emphasized that real danger of people like Roy Moore is that they are unabashed Christian Dominionists whose scarcely concealed (if at all) goal is to violate or repeal (if they can) the anti-establishment clause of the U.S. Constitution, and turn our country into a Christian Theocracy. This poses an even greater danger to all of us and our cherished rights of freedom of speech and religion than the accusations (even if true) that he is a sexual predator of vulnerable young women and girls. If that basis alone is not enough to motivate a majority to vote against him (and others like him), we are potentially in deep trouble, regardless of what is or not true about the allegations against him.

No precept or claim is more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

Yeah, that's right. His present day hard-right theocratic views are far more concerning to me in a would-be Senator than the fact that he was a sexual predator. I wouldn't downplay how significant the sexual predator angle actually is, though. You don't become a sanctimonious moral scold while privately being an amoral degenerate without that kind of screwed up mentality bleeding into how you do things and see the world. Moore has already given ample evidence of this and we have every reason to believe it would continue in any office he holds.
Good points, EA, and well stated, as you always do. I agree completely.
