Glad to hear that.

Well the POTUS has endorsed him...by name.  Even called him to tell him to "Go get 'em".

The RNC is pumping money and resources in also.

Sooo...

I've spoken to countless Roy Moore supporters who overlook the accusations of pedophilia because he's "anti-establishment" but now that the RNC is funding his campaign I wonder what excuse they'll use to vote for him. Maybe his cute vest collection?

The only ideology existent in Washington right now is partisanship.

Christians sold out their religion for their politics when they elected Donald Trump as President.

Do comments like this really surprise you still?

The best part was McConnell smirking when he said "You complain about process when you're losing" after he's spent eight years trying to repeal expanded access to healthcare because of the process.

"Trump has good morals"

Heard that said around here. Funny.

Probably because he's an outsider?  Maybe the perfect outsider! 

All seriousness aside, everyone with open eyes and minds knew what Trump was/is.  But some deluded themselves that he was "better" than Clinton...somehow.

In a world with those two choices (yes, I know...third party) if you pick the snake oil salesman, on his 4th wife with multiple bankruptcies and 200+ current lawsuits that says a lot about how you define "morals" and "better".

And the "Give him a chance"™ crowd is slowly running out of time for the POTUS change,learn, grow, do anything differently.

People like Trump and Moore being anti gay/trans/Muslim/immigrant/etc is more important than actually being moral people themselves.  You have to realize the people who consider these guys to be good are convinced that they are legitimately combating people who are of imminent danger.

Religion blinds people to so much stupidity.

To clarify, she contends she added the date, but that Moore wrote the message.

Which, if you look through most of my mothers family photos, that’s how half of them are. She or someone wrote something and someone else came along and added the date or names or whatever.

The story says that she made this admission to ABC news, but I can't find a story on this from ABC News.

So your mother is trying to frame Republicans, too?  I'm not following.

Speechless.

Yeah it's still not good though. Why did it take so long to clarify that part. All things considered, her credibility sure takes a hit there.

If the ink don't match, Roy didn't want her snatch.  Case closed.

No idea, I don't watch TV news. It's horrid. I read most of it on the dinosaurs or a few sites.

No idea. Maybe she just thought it was apparent given that the comment and the date are written in completely different handwriting?
