Democratic defense of recent sexual predator

Shameful but at least Conyers isn't on the ballot any more. Roy Moore is.

He is not a pedophile.  If they occurred, they were 40 years ago.  A person can be forgiven for acts 40 years.  The GOP if it wakes up can expel him he lied about the yearbook.  The proof would come handwriting analysis not DNA analysis.

Good to know that, according to many like-minded conservatives (those like yourself), pedophilia has an expiration timer for forgiveness.

[DrScholl]

How long ago something occurred does not make it irrelevant nor does forgiveness. And for what it's worth, his son has been arrested 9 times and is only in his 20s, so one has to wonder what was going on in that "Christian" household. Moore is a sexual predator after all...

[MAINEiac4434]

I agree with the posters elsewhere that a Democrat wave is building.  That danger is the final reason to support Moore. The GOP has things to accomplish, especially regarding the courts.  We cannot allow another Democrat in now, who will try to screw up the works.  

I want the courts to at least give me and the country protection from some of the thinking of some hard left Democrats.

You're speaking to a survivor. From the survivor community: Screw Roy Moore and screw anyone who defends him.

I don't think you should get any points against this message. Arkansas Yankee has gone way too far defended things that should not be defended.

I do not necessarily blame parents for children unless I know actual facts.

He has 3 other children, who seem to have turned out fine.

In my world I have seen very fine people who have had children go bad.

I agree with this. There's a lot a parent can do, but some people are just born terrible.

It is not just a random act 40 years ago, this was Child Molestation & ofcourse a repeated pattern of sexual assault when Moore forced himself on many women without their consent.

Are people going to pretend it is okay because Moore didn't rape those women?

[AtorBoltox]

I thought you had to show repentance to be forgiven?

I give up.  I already endorsed Jones but I can't take it anymore.  Goodbye GOPedos

Bill Clinton’s raped someone forty years ago. Can he be forgiven for that?

Trump endorsed Roy Moore.

@realDonaldTrump
Democrats refusal to give even one vote for massive Tax Cuts is why we need Republican Roy Moore to win in Alabama. We need his vote on stopping crime, illegal immigration, Border Wall, Military, Pro Life, V.A., Judges 2nd Amendment and more. No to Jones, a Pelosi/Schumer Puppet!

@realDonaldTrump
Putting Pelosi/Schumer Liberal Puppet Jones into office in Alabama would hurt our great Republican Agenda of low on taxes, tough on crime, strong on military and borders...& so much more. Look at your 401-k’s since Election. Highest Stock Market EVER! Jobs are roaring back!

[Warren 4 Secretary of Everything]

Wow Trump and the GOP aren’t even hiding how terrible they are anymore. They’re literally saying it doesn’t matter if Moore diddles kids, as long as he’ll vote for tax cuts and right wing judges.

Republicans, and I know there are great people among you, please introspect about what your party has become. Not_Madigan is on the right track here. Your party has abandoned all semblance of common decency.

Moore being an alleged pedophile may not cost him the race in Alabama, without a doubt, however, this will seriously harm the image of the Republican Party as a whole moving forward. Trump must have accepted the reality of a massive midterm loss if he is going out of his way to endorse this creep, as this sort of thing will most certainly turn away lean-Rs.

It has more to do with the fact he is an Internet comment section troll who treats politics like a sport

I am also a survivor.  My father was an alcoholic and was never in my life. Never had a good day with him in my life.  When I was 14 almost 15 I became active in the Republican Party. For a year a man groomed me and struck when I was 16. Luckily, I had the sense to put a stop to it right then.  I almost let it go on, as I was craving male attention. My father later killed my aunt, his sister, who provided him with lodging, so he was not homeless.  After killing his sister he committed suicide.  

I have suffered for years with depression and suicidal thoughts.   I and my counselors assumed it arose from the above described  events.  However, about 10 years ago I learned that depression can be caused by severe head injuries.  When I was 8, I tripped over a bat.  I hit my head on the floor.  I was out like a light for a day and half.  I started taking seizure medication.  It relieved much of my depression.

I have also discovered that fall may have caused the Parkinson’s I now struggle with. But the Parkinson’s medication seems to have relieved the remaining depression.  

I was lucky enough to marry a wonderful woman who was able to stay with me in spite of my overwhelming depression.  I have a wonderful son.  He is living the political life I wish I had had in the DC area with his wife and two boys. Faith in God also helped through my life.

Sometimes I wish my molester has died of AIDS. Other times I hope he has reformed and found peace. The real damage he did was to destroy our one year relationship and my relationship with men in general.  His actions confirmed my mistrust of men developed by my father.

So this all leads me to the point that everyone who posts here need to stop their personal attacks on people they do not know who post here.  Everyone needs to stop the use of foul language.  Folks tend to use language on the internet they would not use in person.

With respect to the two accusers who relate true sexual offenses, I would suggest the offenses  are not heinous enough to disqualify a man who has had a 40 year period of no additional charges. I have serious reservations about Nelson’s claims.  I do not believe that either accuser has revealed sufficient trauma from one incident with no grooming to overcome 40 years of no charges.

The fact that you literally plant the life or death of your fortunes on predictit is beyond stupid IceSpear. One day you'll make a major error and lose big.

Eh, let him. Maybe he'll learn a lesson someday. Or not. I find the people who talk the most often have be least to say.
