I hope you’re right.

Many here are saying that the Dems will pull the last-minute sexual allegations trick in every single race and sweep the 2018 elections with that tactic alone.

Hopefully, voters are going to start wising up.

As things stand, from here on out, I have gone from a sexual harassment skeptic to a sexual harassment denier.

No more “it’s not the evidence but the seriousness of the charge.”

Women, accept the fact that there are some things that can’t be proven.

Not that I condone improper conduct in any way, but when it’s one person’s word against another’s, how do we judge?

One would think that after decades of feminism, women would have learned to take care of themselves. This would, I think, include not giving sleazy players anything resembling an opening.

Well, “you’re blaming the victim,” some might say. I reply, “I’ve learned not to put myself into situations where I might become a victim.”

As a guy, I know what parts of town to stay out of. If I go there and get robbed, at least some of the blame falls on my poor judgment.

Or more to the point, if a woman dresses provocatively or has a potty mouth — well, I’m not going to be asking her if she wants to hit Denny’s for a cup of coffee and a piece of pie. There are a lot of troubled people out there of both sexes, and it’s a good survival tactic to identify them early and give them plenty of space.

This sex allegation business is approaching Salem 1691 levels and can’t die down soon enough.

When I think back over the years, when I turned from liberal to Republican and then kept thinking, “Why don’t they DO something?” Meaning the Republicans ... about voter fraud, about the 800 files on Republicans grabbed by the Clintons, about all the crap going on with the Democrats over 25 years and the Republicans did nothing, nothing, nothing...it took me almost as long to realize that the GOP was as stinking rotten corrupt as the leftists. I can think of a hundred examples of my bewilderment when they did NOTHING when the filthy Democrats like Barney Frank with a whorehouse in his basement skated...and you can think of as many examples as I can. Burn them down. Destroy the GOP first. They are the primary enemy. Burn their house down. And I don’t even know how to start. We have no representation. More than half of America has no representation in this government.

I completely disagree with you.

As we all see, there is much more abject sex abuse going on today. It is cruel to subject teens and helpless employees to the worst of assaults. Good men are not at risk. No one should be subjected to the boss masturbating or an adult overpowering a naive teen. Women and girls deserve better treatment. For every starlet subjected to a Weinstein are the single moms working at the coffee shop subjected to the perv boss with no one to believe them. Good men should care about these women. They are your daughters and mothers and wives.

And no one should falsely accuse anyone, but powerful people WILL be accused and they need to be above the fray. No Moore style equivocating. Keep your life clean so no one can come after you. Own your few improprieties and show how you’ve changed. If you are innocent, fight back hard.

Voters wise up? Now that’s a laugh. Hell yeah they will use this strategy to take back the Senate and the House. And to impeach Trump.
