Never Trumper's = Never Moore's at National Review.

Whatta bout Predatory Gerbilists?

[piytar]

Wow, the stupid and bias is strong with this LSM scum.

[HotHunt]

Three reasons not to read this claptrap:

One, National Review.

Two, "....my colleague, David French....".

Three, this woman just assumes Moore is guilty without any evidence presented.

Innuendo, unsubstantiated allegations almost 40 years ago without any proof offered, is called character assassination, not sexual abuse.

My mother was 14 years older than my dad....for all of the 55 years they were married. Was she some kind of predator or is this just a recent phenomenon?

[kosciusko51]

The allegations against Roy Moore are disgusting...

Agreed, and if they could be proven to be true, I would condemn Moore for his actions.

But these allegations come at a time too convenient, and the outcry too consistent, for this to be coincidence. This has all the makings of a smear job, including the ramblings of this 'useful idiot' author.

I find the National Review disgusting.

If you use your reportorial power to influence national elections with innuendo and mis-reporting about events form 38 years ago, never tried in a court of law. The publication is disgusting.

[NormsRevenge]

Guilty until proven Innocent?? Is that the ‘new normal’ for the Left? Intimidation thru lies..

No wonder so many nations see this nation in a dark light.. The corruption is as thick as their own.. and worse.

[EdnaMode]

Guilty until proven innocent is what is disgusting.

Kat is a simpleton. I revile this little _itch. Can’t stand to watch her on FOX or anywhere else.

[raiderboy]

Where was this article on Bill Clinton. Go to HELL!!

[Ohioan]

The obvious flaw in this argument by NR is that we are not refusing to condemn predators. We are refusing to condemn the victim of an obvious smear. Surely someone at National Review still has the intelligence to understand the difference.

That this is a text book smear attempt, is sufficiently obvious that I used a similar fictionalized smear by an antagonist (The New York Times) in a novel published in 1998, as a literary device:

Conservative Resource Center.

[goldstategop]

I do agree with every word she wrote.

We expect sexual harassers and abusers to deny. That’s what they do - they blame their victims for their vile behvior.

And basic human decency isn’t about politics. Moore has no business resorting to nuts & sluts defense and neither do his defenders.

His accusers didn’t come forward. They were asked to tell the truth. Moore has to prove a negative. Its virtually impossible here.

Whether Left or Right, our current social milieu is intolerant of sexual predators. Even Bill Clinton would not get away today with what he got away with over twenty years ago.

And no, every body doesn’t do it. That’s the exactly the point here.

[a fool in paradise]

Somehow this wasn’t important during the primary or last year or last decade or last century.

At first it seemed this editorial might have been about the hypocrisy of Hillary’s nasty cat women who excused his behavior in the most base terms.

[Chgogal]

So, Madame Tmipf, you don't believe in Due Process? OK. I heard from a very good and dear friend that you lure 5 year old boys and “play” with them. Prove me wrong.

[CodeToad]

If you condemn politicians because some paid opposition party liar makes false claims, you are a disgusting bigot.

[aquila48]

The Rats must be giddy with joy.

They must be saying, we got them again! Cuckservatives are so easy to guilt trip! This is like playing with a two year old.

Disgusting?? It sounded better in the original Prog-speak: DEPLORABLE.

[samadams2000]

Pedos are Mean! (their new slogan)

[NorthMountain]

If you condemn people based on false accusations, you’re disgusting.
