Discussion: Roy Moore’s Wife Says They Aren’t Anti-Semites: ‘One Of Our Attorneys Is A Jew’

Her comments are so outdated and bigoted that the comments stand as a representation (given that they come from the wife of a senate candidate - and former two time state supreme court judge) of how the bigotry of Jim Crow still lingers.

That was Roy. Honorable, disciplined, morally straight and highly principled

This would be the SAME Roy that has been booted from the state supreme court TWICE for not following the law???

Roy and Kayla paid themselves very handsomely from their “Foundation for Moral Law”. Roy was paying himself $180,000/year. Does anyone know if they reported that income to the IRS, since they tried to keep the payments hidden?

Ooops…guess they didn’t…

Jeez, we’re Living in The Onion… not sure whether your comment was satire or whether she really did say that.

So his son is attending a US Military academy which these days are directed by right wing religious officers. Perfect for what Roy Moore wants: Christian sharia law indoctrination, learn to tap into government and tax payers for a free ride under the facade of Patriotism (Alabama hates anything Federal government except the gov’t money keeping them afloat).

Our military academies are developing the wrong breed of leaders like never before. The religious right and Republicans control the academies and are influencing the curricula. The racism at the academies is getting worse. And if you don’t declare allegiance to the Christian movement then you are in for a rough ride. America is under attach from within. Right wing extremism, neo Nazi values, and white supremacists (Trump) are growing and gaining under Trump - freedom for all is in danger. It is alarming how a retired 3 star from the Marines (Flynn) could be so cozy and close with our #1 enemy in Russia…then you realize the connection: Putin’s neo-Nazi, anti Muslim, anti minority, global movement is loved by America’s right wing extremists who now control the Republican Party and our government! Our military academies are a problem if we want to an equal and free people - neo-Nazis have no use for that.

This Alabama peanut farmer may seem a bit of a caricature, especially as he repeatedly mispronounces pervert as “prevert” over and over, but his pain is very real and what he did was extraordinarily brave.

He’s protesting outside a Roy Moore rally talking about his gay daughter who committed suicide at age 23.

But both were just warm-up acts for a man who said he served in Vietnam with [Roy] Moore — and told a story about the two of them being taken by another soldier to a brothel they’d thought was just a private club when they’d agreed to go.

WTF did Moore think a “private club” was?

Wait just a minute here. Isn’t this actually a remake of an multiple Academy Award-winning 1989 movie,
retooled as Driving Miss Kayla?

I know a farce when I see one.

@geofu54 Seriously heartbreaking.
