He knows the new accusers name. He signed her yearbook: "To a sweeter, more beautiful girl I could not say “Merry Christmas.” Christmas 1977. Love, Roy Moore D.A." Judge Roy the Rapist!

They will twist themselves into pretzels to defend one of their own. And they’ll twist themselves into pretzels to take down an opponent. This is strictly tribal to them. They could care less about whether or not Moore is a child predator.

Lol!! Why can’t we punch them all?

Thankfully, they’re not the majority as evidenced last Tuesday night. They’ll completely melt down if Moore loses in December.

It wasn't for some odd reason. It was because the Marian cult appealed to the myriad worshippers of the Great Goddess. Her many manifestations -- Rhea, Erde, Venus, Isis, Ceres, and so many more -- made Catholicism more palatable. The original Holy Trinity was maid (virgin or not), mother, and crone. The virgin birth was a tradition among the Greeks; hard to find a Greek god who was NOT born of a virgin.

I do, I do! When the Great Blackout hit NYC, I had a working phone. Sandy killed my landline for a month. Of course, I have a touch-tone extension phone for menus.

Calling people and getting them to talk -- sure sounds like reporting to this old editor.

It shows that those assholes don't know how to write a story, much less how to use quotes.

I do not understand why the GOP does not turn on more of these jerks and launch a write in campaign for someone. Roy Moore will not fall in line when its time to trade favors and votes and pork. Putting him in the room does not get republicans closer to their goals. It is in their best interest to declare him NOT A TRUE Republican and run someone they can bend. Or already bent their way.

FYI Mary's conception was immaculate. She was conceived without original sin. Just so she could carry the Son of God. Long term planning.

I'm not saying one thing leads to another. Just that if they are willing to compromise their integrity for Nazis, which they did will full knowledge of who and what they were supporting, there should be no surprise they will set aside integrity for a child molester.

Calling them out on it would be, I think, ineffective and counterproductive. Especially with the Evangelicals who are the ones more likely to support Moore right now. They have wrapped religion and political party so tightly together, there is no daylight between them. To vote for a non GOPer is to vote against their own supposedly deeply held beliefs. Toss in the whole concept of he is forgiven but not perfect, with a huge dose of the White Evangelical persecution and martyr complex, and any argument from the left is going to fall on deaf ears and likely cause his support to rally even tighter around him.

This is a problem that is going to have to fixed by the sane GOPers. If they want to save their party they will have to be the ones to do it. They need to purge the crazies, the religious nutjobs, the Tea Party no compromise at any cost crowd, and the Nazis out of the party. The left cannot do it for them. Either they take it back from the monster they thought they could control and reestablish some sanity, the monster keeps purging out the sane members for being impure, or the party splits. The last two doom the GOP to never holding power again, and require no political will or courage. The first one is the only viable option for them to stay a national level party, but takes will and courage they have not shown. In any case it has to be them that does it.
