Discussion: Two Republican Senators Rescind Endorsements For Roy Moore

2 Likes

“Having read the detailed description of the incidents, as well as the response from Judge Moore and his campaign, I can no longer endorse his candidacy for the US Senate,” Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT)

Yet you can still call a man thrown off the Alabama Supreme Court TWICE for not following the law “Judge.”

Awkward that his photo is still going out in fundraising emails. Probably awkward for those other two as well…

Two Republican senators rescinded their endorsements of Alabama Senate candidate (R) Roy Moore Friday night over reports that he’d pursued relationships with multiple teenage women.

Shouldn’t that be “teenage girls”?

Interesting to see the logo for the “National Association for Gun Rights”. I’m just curious about what rights guns have that people don’t.

Someone needs to make a one-minute spot focusing on Leigh Corfman’s accusations – interviews with her personally if she agrees to it, quotes from the Post article if she doesn’t want to appear on camara – and put that up in daily rotation in Alabama.

Let’s those hypocritical evangelical f*cks pull the lever knowing exactly what their hero did.

Moore did not “generally” pursue teenagers, he specifically pursued teenagers.

The rescinded endorsements will have little to no effect.

Until these so-called “leaders” start loudly and clearly telling Republican voters that they shouldn’t vote for this child molester, they are complicit in enabling the child molester in his efforts to become a U.S. Senator.

GOP = Got Outrageous Pedophiles.

Obviously qualified to replace Sessions. In fact, on the basis of that alone, he’d be a shoo-in for Attorney General.

Mother: “Sadie, Mr. Moore is here!”
Moore: “Hello. Sadie. I have come here to court you.”
Sadie: “Mr. Moore, I have heard some terrible things about you. I am not sure I want you courting me!”
Moore: “What, pray tell, have you heard? I assure you they are all lies and slander!”
Sadie: “My neighbor Mary Lou says you are a pedophile.”
Moore: “Pedophile! My, my, Sadie, that’s an awfully big word for a 12 year old. Now come here and look at these beautiful chocolates I have brought you tonight.”

And what about Trump and his unwanted encounters (on their part) with women?

Good for these two Senators. They dispensed with the lame, “if proven true” disclaimer as it’s pretty much impossible to “prove” these type of allegations. Not to mention we’re not in a court of law and Moore’s not a defendant.

The question is is he fit to serve as a US Senator and the question is clearly no.

Seems to me it would be pretty hard to accuse Mike Lee, a Ted Cruz clone, of being a RINO.

The deplorables will denounce him as a Mormon now.

Let the floodgates open. Personally, I believe Lee and Daines are simply covering their own asses, but I’ll take whatever crumbs fall off the table. Sadly, the final decision will rest in the hands of the voters in Alabama, unless Mitch McConnell finally develops a shred of a conscience, and leads a movement to refuse to seat Moore (if he is elected.) Not holding out a lot of hope for that last one.

And another via Twitter (but one already dismissed by the Trumpioids)

Once again, all profile, no courage. Where are the solons facing re-election who will make pronouncements like this?! Hello?

And yet, many evangelicals are still with him. What an interesting version of Christian virtues.

Right? In other words he sounds like a sane normal person. Same thing.
