Part of the problem is everyone assuming the party of people who disagree (either side) I’ve been called a liberal a lot, even though I am not one. Just makes me roll my eyes and think less of the post when they default to dismissing detractors this way.

Hey someone else had a good answer to this one upthread:

If you don't want people to talk about themselves, you should avoid making generalized false claims about them in your interactions with them, so that they do not have to continually stop the conversation in order to clarify the misinformation you are attempting to apply to them.

I think it is silly to act like the majority of the Roy bashers on here are not liberal/Democrats. Obviously the Senate seat is why most people are interested in this in the first place.

That's an interesting assertion given you falsely accused me in your previous post of saying there is only one single explanation possible when I said probably. That was an obvious mischaracterization. Or you don't understand what the word probably means.

I clearly get under your skin and the reason is I say logical things. Adios.

Or could also be that you don't understand the use of the "sarcasm" eye roll emoji.

I saw the original accuser on the Today Show and she was quite believable and a very good witness on her own behalf. I suggest everyone listen to HER statement and then - listen to Roy Moore's tepid responses on Hannity and make up your own mind.

Well ~ many of them wrote letters for Dennis Hastert asking for leniency for him. So I don't know.

I've noticed the left often acts like it gets to set the terms of the debate.

My due process comment was in direct response to a person talking about the rule of law and justice, and suggesint not voting for Moore is supporting the rule of law and justice. It is fair to point out the rule of law and justice involves due process.
Nobody is stopping you from voting for a short-eyes if you want to. Just don't expect those who don't vote for Moore to approve of your choice. They won't. Nor will you approve of theirs. That's how elections are.

As has been already said, this is an election, not a trial. It's not about justice. It's all about the personal qualities of the candidates. That's always what an election is about.

For example, you can't explain why it is more moral to vote for an abortion supporter who campaigns with creepy Joe Biden and is a past Clinton supporter than it is to vote for Moore. Yet that is your premise.

I am all for a new candidate but if the choice is Moore or JOnes, I think Moore is the moral choice.
Moore molested teenage girls. It is immoral to vote for him. If you can't understand that, then there is little I can do to help you.
