Statutory rape means that consent doesn't exist because of one person being underage.

Corfman could not have legally consented.

It wasn't always so, but these days conservatives have lost their moral compass and have no shame...
I consider your view smug and short-sighted. To swap someone like Franken for someone like Cruz or McConnell would be disastrous for the liberal causes you support.

Thanks, that's why I said "I believe". However we all know there is a huge difference between consensual sex with 2 teens, one below legal age, and the allegations against Moore which did not involve consent and had a 20 year age gap. They are 2 totally different things.

I disagree. If you've read much of what they and some others have ever written you will see they speak strictly in lock step with progressive/liberal party lines just as some on here speak only in lock step with right/GOP lines.

If we're ever going to clean up D.C. aka "the swamp" this lock step has got to stop. Neither holds the high ground at this point and haven't for years...

So, that makes them not sick? Does not matter the party...

I consider your view immoral and short-sighted. To swap your values, morality, decency and self-respect would be disastrous for both liberal and conservative causes we both support...

From AL.com today: "the pro-life group and the evangelicals, they are still breaking for Moore nearly 3 to 1."

I've really lost a lot of respect for many Christians. So much for morals, character and integrity.

I can't believe those who excuse his behavior, a man in his 30's following young girls around, wanting them to be alone with him. He was so apparently compulsive that he called one girl at school while she was in class and hung around places so often, they had to ban him from being there.

What is it about those who prefer a R W cowboy SO BADLY, for no good reason, that they will overlook something terribly negative about them? (No different than the other ass with zero character they support).
