You use that word, but it does not mean what you think it means. That is actually a specific disorder defined by the American Psychiatric Association.
You can look it up on wiki for yourself.
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.
I love how right wingers always blame the victims in these cases.
We aren't talking about a case where Women are accusing Bill Clinton of sexual harassment.
Anthony Weiner is going to the slammer just for sexting with somebody of nearly the same age !
No, I don't just mean the corporate rate. I mean this is literally a massive giveaway to billionaires and Republican donors. Several Republicans like Lindsay Graham flat out admitted the entire purpose of this was to benefit their donors. Trump's family is expected to get at least $600 million off this tax plan.
Middle-class taxes, however, will go up.
If you're trying to argue trickle-down economics, it's a proven myth. Cutting taxes on corporations will not bring more jobs or higher wages. Corporations are already sitting on hoards and hoards of capital that are not used for jobs or higher wages, it goes to their share-holders and their CEO end of year bonuses.
And don't forget, neatly tucked away in the Republican budget are some nasty cuts that are needed to partially pay for this tax plan. Cut medicaid by a trillion dollars over 10 years and cut Medicare by 473 billion. There is no written explanation of what part of medicare will be cut but Paul Ryan has stated that he wants to replace medicare with vouchers, the value of which would be based on your income and raise the medicare eligibility age from 65 to 67.
Its been a crazy night, but Alabama officials are apparently saying that even if Moore did what he was accused of they will still vote for him. The reason? Any republican is better than any democrat period. The Alabama State Auditor, a republican, compared Moore to Joseph in the Bible. Joseph was older than Mary when they had Jesus. So, according to state auditor, what Moore did is OK with him.
Honestly, I really hope the people of Alabama will show us they are above all of this and reject Moore.
However, if they don't. The U.S. Senate has the right to refuse to seat someone. That should be the next stop. If the people of Alabama refuse to do the right thing. Conduct a formal investigation and determine the validity of these accusations. However, if they are vaild, no way should that lunatic Moore be allowed to sit in the United States Senate. His election, if it occurs, will be indelible black mark on the state of Alabama.

40 years ago, women didn't have a voice. They were told what to do and when to do it by men. Sorry, but thank god our social climate has changed where men no longer have that control over women. How right you are, women are not the "snowflakes" they were. No more intimidation by men. We are not talking about stealing a kiss, we are talking about groping and rape.
Weeks before an election, yeah, ok, whatever. Fake news strikes again.
