I don't either. But Moore's interview with Hannity disturbed me.

At one point Moore was obviously in the mode of trying to think and going back 40 years in his memory to find something that made sense to himself as an honest person would do. At another point Moore could not find anything in his memory and said very clearly NO. I find nothing wrong in his conversation. Moore was obviously under much pressure to remember and be honest at the same time.

Sure, it's Friday, but how much have you had to drink?

It wasn't just one woman. He went to shopping malls, high schools and picked up the girl in question while he was sitting outside family court. How many 32 year olds do you know that pick up multiple girls 18 years and under. He went to another woman to ask if he could date her 16 year old daughter, do you know anyone that comes close to that track record. It's slightly strange to be dating high school girls if you are in college but it does happen, it is extremely weird for a 32 year old man dating a 10th grader.

I believe that at 14 the girl would have been in the 9th grade. But yes, definitely weird. Creepy even. And just the facts that we know about this guy that are beyond dispute would indicate that he had some disturbing tendencies. A man in his 30s hitting on teen age girls has some serious issues, Bogart and Bacall, and Joseph and Mary notwithstanding.

Why should he when the voters don't believe the Washington Post story?

During a segment that aired on Friday’s broadcast of Birmingham, AL ABC affiliate WBMA 33/40’s 5 p.m. local news, political reporter Lauren Walsh sought out voters in Columbiana, AL to gauge their reactions to the Washington Post report that alleged Republican U.S. Senate hopeful Roy Moore engaged in inappropriate conduct with four teenage girls more than 34 years ago.

None of the respondents according to Walsh told her they believed the Post’s reporting.

“It’s hard to believe the events that transpired yesterday,” Gordon Fluker of nearby Wilsonville, AL said to Walsh about the Washington Post report. Fluker’s response was the standard according to Walsh. “Out of all the voters we spoke with Friday in Columbiana, we didn’t find one voter who believed the Washington Post report about Moore,” she said.



does this bother you?
One of senatorial candidate Roy Moore’s accusers is has worked for the DNC as a sign language interpreter for Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden. The accuser, Debbie Gibson, had also publically supported Moore’s opponent Doug Jones.

After hearing this interview, I'm left to think that he did date under aged girls, which I have to admit makes these girls stories credible. Very sad to have to say this. Like Gregg Jerrett said, he was unconvincing.
yeah, I agree. Way too much equivocation for an innocent man.
  • "Speaking of the late 1970s and early 1980s, Moore said he "dated a lot of young ladies" after "my return from the military."
  • "I do recognize the names of two of these young women," he said of Gibson and Deason, denying that he gave the latter alcohol when she was underage. "As I recall, she was 19 or older."
  • Asked if he remembers dating teenage women when he was older than 30, Moore said, "Not generally, no."
  • "I don't remember dating any girl without the permission of her mother," he said. He later pointed to The Post's story and said, "These two young girls actually said their mothers encouraged them to be friends with me."

Again

How about you wait for the facts to come out? We've already heard how one of those "involved" has played this game before and been outed as someone who isn't credibile. Not that you care about the truth.

The people in that area don't believe the women either. See my post above if you care about the truth. Or you can just go by unfounded rumors. Either way How about you wait for the facts to come out?

Hope this helps.

If the Alabama voters want to be known as the dumbest, most backward voters in the developed world, then, yeah, voting for a child rapist, criminal and Christian Taliban would certainly be a good start.

Major firms like Mercedes will rethink Alabama investments if the state's voters send the world a message that they're pro child-rape.

Sure didn't sound like that to me, it sounded like he was trying to figure out which of these incidents he could safely deny and which ones he had to "sort of" admit - maybe because there were witnesses or photographs that he's afraid might show up.

Moore didn't deny having sexual relations with women under the age of 18 last night on Hannity.
Quote:
When pressed by Hannity on whether he dated teenagers as an adult, Moore said “not generally, no.”

"At that time in your life … would it be unusual for you as a 32-year-old guy to have dated a woman as young as 17?” Hannity asked.

“Not generally, no. If I did, I’m not going to dispute anything but I don’t remember anything like that,” Moore replied.
