Saving Roy Moore Isn’t Worth It
National Review ^ | November 9, 2017 | David French

Posted on 11/09/2017 4:11:34 PM PST by WatchungEagle

"Roy Moore is a dangerous man who never should have received the GOP nomination. Republican primary voters selected as their champion a person who seeks to suppress the civil rights of his fellow citizens and defies the law whenever it suits his ideological and political purposes. Even before today’s allegations, he was unfit to be a United States senator. Now the question is whether he’s dangerous, unfit, and vile.

The Alabama GOP options for replacing him on the ballot are limited, at best. It’s time to consider a write-in challenge, and if he wins the election, the Senate should consider expelling him from the body. He does not belong in American government."

They all accept the accusations as truth and they all had their scripts ready. It’s *almost* funny.

These tyrants really don't believe that the American people are qualified to govern themselves.

ESAD is right. We have lots of time before the Dec 12 election for Moore’s accusers to step forward and lets see if they are concocting some BS.

After the Trump campaign, we know what this is.

Lindsay Graham, McCain’s best friend and ally, appeared in court as a “character witness” for Menendez, accused of corruption and traveling to the Caribbean for sex with underage girls. How about them both, McCain??

Saul Alinsky’s Rules from Rules for Radicals

Saul Alinsky describes 24 rules in Rules for Radicals. Of those 24 rules, 13 are rules of “power tactics”:

1. “Power is not only what you have but what the enemy
thinks you have.”

2. “Never go outside the experience of your people.”

3. “Wherever possible go outside of the experience of the
enemy.”

4. “Make the enemy live up to their own book of rules.”

5. “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.”

6. “A good tactic is one that your people enjoy.”

7. “A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.”

8. “Keep the pressure on, with different tactics and
actions, and utilize all events of the period for your purpose.”

9. “The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing
itself.”

10. “The major premise for tactics is the development of
operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition.”

11. “If you push a negative hard and deep enough it will
break through into its counterside.”

12. “The price of a successful attack is a constructive
alternative.”

13. “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.”

The remaining 11 rules Alinsky describes are concerned with “the ethics of means and ends”:

1. “One’s concern with the ethics of means and ends varies inversely with one’s personal interest in the issue … Accompanying this rule is the parallel one that one’s concern with the ethics of means and ends varies inversely with one’s distance from the scene of conflict.”

2. “The judgment of the ethics of means is dependent upon the political position of those sitting in judgment.”

3. “In war the end justifies almost any means.”

4. “Judgment must be made in the context of the times in which the action occurred and not from any other chronological vantage point.”

5. “Concern with ethics increases with the number of means available and vice versa.”

6. “The less important the end to be desired, the more one can afford to engage in ethical evaluations of means.”

7. “Generally success or failure is a mighty determinant of ethics.”

8. “The morality of a means depends upon whether the means is being employed at a time of imminent defeat or imminent victory.”

9. “Any effective means is automatically judged by the opposition as being unethical.”

10. “You do what you can with what you have and clothe it with moral garments.”

11. “Goals must be phrased in general terms like ‘Liberty, Equality, Fraternity,’ ‘Of the Common Welfare,’ ‘Pursuit of Happiness,’ or ‘Bread and Peace.’”

I think if conservatives don’t press this point all week long that if this man must resign, we are losers.

What happened here is that conservatives are being taught a lesson that they are less than human and deserve contempt. And leftists are being given training lessons on how to humiliate conservatives and if we let this happen they will be given a pass. This will be standard operating procedure.

40 years ago. The Compost had pics of the girl straight out of the family album all neatly arranged in the farticle. Of course, it couldn’t be that they’d sit on this story for however long until Moore couldn’t withdraw from the ballot and end up electing Commie moonbat Jones. Why the Compost would NEVER do something so underhanded would they ?

BTW, most sex predators who go after underage girls don’t do it just one time. If Moore was going after the under-18 set, this would’ve come up repeatedly, especially given how “polarizing” he is. The Dems would’ve taken him down before he reached the AL Supreme Court.

"Right on cue."

Crap like this coming out in the month before the election is so predictable when it pertains to Republican candidates. The left, and even the GOPe try their damnedest to get rid of honest, Conservative candidates using whatever means they can, even if it means making up stories about alleged incidents that happened 40 years ago. Nothing is beyond the pale for these slugs, and I hope they get their just desserts.

Very well coordinated RINO/NWO/Swamp long knives out for Moore.

The NeverTrump letter author, signed by MANY wolves, is of course putting out this pap against Moore.

The Swamp knows they are being forced down the drain. They are pulling ALL stops to keep the plug from being pulled.

You would never know Doug Jones was a democrat from his ads. Not one word about the party he represents.

I noticed that McCain, Collins, and McConnell were leading the charge here.

Now, in the current sexual hysteria, it is likely that Moore would have trouble getting elected if the charges ring true in the court of public opinion.

But, why are McCain and Collins, and even McConnell, so eager to throw the Alabama Senate seat to the Dems? It’s not principle. There’s no worry about that with this crew.

No, I think its because with all of the Dem Senate seats up for election in 2018, they are worried that the GOP might actually get a REAL majority, one where they aren’t the power brokers and deciders, and Trump could get things done.
