re: I loathe Roy Moore

I've struggled with this for days, and here I am -

I've always disliked him. He's a pompous, holier-than-thou jackass. His ten commandment monument stunt was just that, a stunt.

Any man who thinks God is actually on his side is deranged, delusional or both. Before you downvote, "God" gave us free will.

I seriously would not vote for Roy Moore to be our county sanitation supervisor.

Yet I'll go vote for him to keep a poisonous Democrat out, if that's what it comes down to.

I am pretty much on board with you - and if I lived in Alabama I'd vote for him as well.

I take small exception with one of your facets; I don't think anyone says "God is on my side" - I think they say "I am on God's side." I think Abe Lincoln first made this distinction.

I absolutely maintain that Moore - with all his 40 years removed 'interest in young teenaged girls" is still a more moral man than 2/3 of those already seated in the Senate - especially amongst the DEMocrats. I would not doubt there are a couple of recent actual pedophiles in theri midst. e.g. Menendez Anyone who has accepted a flight to Pedo Island needs to prove they are not a pedophile.

I haven't researched the topic (I get all my info from TD) but I have not heard of any 'offenses' by Moore in the last 30 years. That is much longer than convicted child rapists serve in prison. Without some indication of a recent indication that he is continuing that behavior from 40 years ago, I am don't even care any more on a moral level.

Yeah - he was an immature jerk when he was 32 - but he outgrew it, later than most, but he does have a lifetime of actual performance to judge him on, not just his ancient jerkiness.

There is a reason for 'statute of limitations' on certain actual crimes. If it was that long ago, we as a society are no longer interested in meting out punishment. Whatever he is 'accused of' in the 40 year old memories of some politically motivated mind is not relevant today.

I give this zero credibility as it pertains to CURRENT political issues. I didn't like him because he is a loony tune. I didn't like him because I thought there were better candidates. I didn't like him because I thought he would forever be making knee-jerk stupid remarks that would reflect badly on the conservative brand.

I didn't give a shite about the 'allegations' from 40 years ago unless they reveals some actual CRIME that survives the statute of limitations.

You think the Dems won't keep Franken?

I WANT them to keep Franken - so that we can mock the shite out of him with the PICTURE every time he opens his ugly face. I suspect they will prove their 'seriousness' by tossing him under the bus.
