So, therefore we shouldn't lower it? Our President is going to try to do everything he can for our country.

These women are speaking up decades after statutes of limitation have probably expired.

Multiple women with similar stories of being molested as teens by a predatory creep using his position of authority to shield him from the consequences of his disgusting criminal behavior.

What "due process" is available to them at this point?

Moore is a slimeball and has been for a long time.

But that won't slow down his path to DC. It's good that he'll carry the status of "child molester" along with the title of "US senator."

The statute of limitations is probably not in play legally, but I think he's finishes, whether these allegations are true or not.

WashingPoo endorsed Moore's opponent as did Mitch McConnell and RINOs

Timing right before very important election. Judge has been in several elections and was well known in Alabama. Why did accuser say nothing before?

Is this woman credible? Remember the Duke Lacrosse players rape case?

Check her bank account. Unusual deposits? Credit cards paid off? Driving a new car? Someone envying her sudden increase in lifestyle might rat her out.

Statute of limitations

Presumption of innocence in the US.

A couple of the women were of legal age and let's not forget this was in Alabama. Trying to kiss a woman isn't a crime. Otherwise most men would be in jail.

Forty years ago the social climate was more permissive. No snowflakes.


Ignore the press. They get most of these things wrong because the public loves a salacious story and it's click bait.

I feel sorry for men now because if they asked a woman out more than once and were turned down, or tried to steal a kiss on a date, are terrified their careers and marriages could be over based on accusation from decades ago. It's a modern day Salem witch trials.

Friedman would also obviously agree that the Trump tax plan is garbage.

But he's been dead for over a decade.

I accept the opinion of many pundits that there is no such thing as corporate taxes. That's just another expense that gets passed on to the customer.
