Klobuchar: If Moore Wins He Can Be Expelled After an Ethics Committee Investigation
Breitbart ^ | 11/12/2017 | pam key

Posted on 11/12/2017 8:13:22 PM PST by bkopto

Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) discussed the report in The Washington Post that accused former state Supreme Court Chief Justice Roy Moore engaged in inappropriate sexual conduct.

She said if Moore were to win in the December 12 U.S. Senate special election, he could be expelled if an ethics committee finds wrongdoing in an investigation.

Klobuchar said, “We may not have much choice on that, but we have choice on something else. That is that you can expel a senator once they are in with two-thirds of the vote after the ethics committee does an investigation.

Amy, I know I’m a teen but if Roy will be expelled for what he did, let’s expelled SENATORS who had abortions or let their wife/girlfriend/mistresses have abortions, senators who drive drunk and senators who lie. OK?

Didn’t McCain abandon his wife when she had cancer?

An investigation may be good for what it might reveal about demRATs.

Funny how no one complained when Strom Thurmond, age 66, married the 1965 Miss South Carolina, age 22, in 1968.... Wasn’t he a Democrat then?

Strom switched to the Republican side of the aisle in 1964.

Another milestone showing that the Republic is nearly dead.

Who knows. Maybe Moore’s support will hold steady and all the worry is for nothing. But then we have what the Senate might do to him.

He looks like he is winning. If this is all they got, he “never knew” the 14 year old. But yes, the senate will expel him. Still the best case scenario at this point.

Why all of the sudden is the Senate, Republicans especially, so concerned that he might be elected?

It takes 2/3 to expel a sitting Senator. Would that many Republicans dare do that? It would be open warfare on them.

Overriding the will of the people is playing with fire. The people who be voting have all heard the accusations. Let it stand with their decision, or the blow back will be unbelievable.

Another Minnesota Marxist heard from. By her standards, most of the Democrats in Congress would need to be investigated and then kicked out, including herself.

Just a list of Dems who supported various communist/Marxist protests of the Workers World Party and its front, IAC, ANSWER, Peoples Power, and its split off, the Party of Socialism & Liberation, as well as the Revolutionary Communist Party and its fronts, Refuse Fascism, Vietnam Veterans Against the War (VVAW from 1973 to present), and United for Peace & Justice, World Can’t Wait, Not In Our Name, etc. would delete the Dems to the point that the Vegetarian Party would be ranked higher.

And in Minnesota (home to Al “the corrupt election senator” Franken) and the relationship of the Dems to the Secy of State, far-leftist, Communist Party friend (see. Mark Ritchie at www.keywiki.org for documentation), would be enough in a normal society to get them all kicked out of office.

But then again, Minnesota is Jihadist-Central for the north-Central part of the US with the Somali - Al Shahab express line to Somalis.

Kuckie’s own leftist record should also be checked out. It won’t disappoint.

Since the Democrats have “No Ethics” there would be nothing to investigate unless you believe in the saying, “If it weren’t for No Ethics the Democrats wouldn’t have any”.

I think that people in their 30s dating people in their teens is not good. I also recognize it is often normal and historical. Moore’s apparent dating habits were 40+ years ago! Consider, stereotypically, girls were married by 16-18 back then. He was normal for the time. Look at Mexican culture then and now, and others. I don’t agree with them, but this is rather normal. I have not seen anything that suggests Moore was a pervert or acting outside of then established cultural norms.
