Brett Kavanaugh: Where Were You When They Came For Roy Moore?

Its easy to argue that sexual assault allegations are the rage nowadays, a quick way to take out opponents and bring the high and the mighty down.

But in politics, the Democrat Party political machine saw how sexual allegations can win a political fight just nine months ago in Alabama.

They were able to use the notion of gross sexual misconduct by Republican US Senate candidate Judge Roy Moore to score and upset win for their candidate Doug Jones in a Special Election. Women came forward with various allegations including the notion of sexual assault.

So why not use the same tactic to take out Judge Brett Kavanaugh, Republican nominee to the US Supreme Court.

When Moore took his hit, who was there to support him and help him get over the top. President Trump endorsed by phone and from a rally in a neighboring state (Pensacola, Florida). But Trump did not campaign with Moore as he promised when Moore won the Primary Runoff Election over lobbyist Luther Strange.

Strange was endorsed by the President and supported at a rally in Huntsville, Alabama by Mr. Trump.

Vice-President Mike Pence made a slew of campaign appearances for Strange, but none for Moore.

The failure of the Gee Oh Pee and the half-way endorsement of President Trump for Judge Moore allowed the Democrat "sexual assault" strategy to work, emboldening them to this filthy, slimy new low.

Is the President ready and are the Republicans ready to go to the mat for Kavanaugh?

They only have themselves to blame to being put in this position.

Clarence Thomas called what they did to him a "high tech lynching". This is a "high tech beheading".

And hopefully we are not witnessing an opening salvo to be followed by additional allegations as happened to Judge Moore, but who knows.

RE:”Yes, they had “the goods” on Cain, but Moore did not seem to know how to reply to the allegations against him. It was terrible that he left the state on the Saturday before the election too.”

I saw his Hannity interview.

He appeared as a person who needed time to get his lies straight, by the end of the interview his answer was different than the one in the beginning.

Like Hannity was making it clear, you better deny dating minors.

They were not legally underage in Moore’s 20s

This notion that’s girls 16-18 are rape victims if the guy is over 18 is only about one generation old

It used to be age of consent was the law

13-16 depending

Now a 19 year old boy with a 16 year old is a rapist

That said ..Moore apparently was in search of young wife material maybe..a bit odd but so far I’ve seen no crime

He’s damn sure stood up for our side for you to be that derisive

[gov_bean_ counter]

Hear, hear! In Ireland in particular, the tradition was that a man didn’t marry until he inherited his father’s farm - and an unmarried woman over the age of 20 was “a spinster.”

Now, it has to be said that a substantial age difference like that just naturally tends to make the “girl” (as we would now call her) the junior partner in her marriage. But that was the norm. You nor I created that system, but there it is. Or was.

Treating a Roy Moore as a creep for a now-anachronistic perspective on courtship is ex post facto behavior.
