Steve Bannon finally found his man: Disgraced Alabama Senate wannabe Roy Moore

NY Post ^ | Nov 16, 2017 | Rich Lowry

[Oshkalaboomboom]

Roy Moore is the Steve Bannon project in a nutshell.

For the former Trump operative, the Alabama Senate candidate’s tattered credibility is a feature, not a bug. If Moore had well-considered political and legal views, good judgment and a sterling reputation, he’d almost by definition be part of the establishment that Bannon so loathes. Since Moore has none of those things, he’s nearly an ideal representative of the Bannon insurgency.

Events in Alabama make it clear that Bannon’s dime-store Leninism — burn everything down, including perhaps the Republican Senate majority — comes at a considerable cost. In this project, the truth doesn’t matter, ethics don’t matter, and standards don’t matter. Being anti-establishment is an escape clause from personal responsibility, and #war means proudly defending the indefensible.

Once you’ve devoted time and energy building up the career of white nationalist fellow traveler Milo Yiannopoulos the way Bannon did at Breitbart, there’s nothing that you aren’t willing to do.

It’s no accident Bannon ended up joined at the hip to the one Republican in the state of Alabama who might be capable of losing a Senate race.

Even before the latest revelations, Moore was, at best, Sharron Angle — the accidental GOP candidate who lost to Harry Reid in 2010 — except running in what appeared to be an un-losable seat. The revelations of financial improprieties (Moore took an undisclosed salary from a nonprofit, despite denials) and accusations of sexual misconduct suggest he is wholly Angle’s inferior.

What project is this pussi boi referring to, the one that he and his fellow travler's are engaged in? The project to discredit President Trump?

Little fag lowry needs smacked in the mouth.

I just tweeted Lowery asking him to go to Alabama to campaign with Doug Jones. He can bring so NRO friends and take a group picture with them locking arms and Jones taking a knee in front of them.

Something else that isn’t getting enough mention re the year book forgery. The “Olde (Sic) Hickory House, as it’s written in the year book, has never in its history had its name spelled with an “e” after Old. Further indicating illiterate forgery.

Shove it Rich. Your day has long been over.

True. And who bothers to read National Review?

But closer to home with the GOPe, Laura Ingraham, Ted Cruz, and Mike Lee, Hannity, and "the Five" had better wise up before this turns more and they end up "sh!t-faced" for running away in the heat of battle.

Not factual. It’s spelled that way in several places:

Add Judge Jeanine to that list as well. I was so disappointed to see/hear her jump on the bandwagon that I decided not to watch her show anymore. How could a judge have rushed to judgement when she said the yearbook “revelation” caused her to believe the “evidence”. I don’t know if she has since redacted, though, because I didn’t watch her show subsequent to her appearance on the Hannity show.

Who let Lowry out of his National Review cage? Ah, well...a Rose by any other name still smells like a turd!

[Vehmgericht]

Lowry is what is portrayed as a conservative these days. He has as much use for Trump as he does for Moore. He writes about Moore’s “tattered credibility.” Whose credibility is “tattered?” Is it Moore’s or the newspaper that claimed that John Tower was drunk at Bergstrom Air Base based on the report of a psychiatric patient? Also the news reported that Tower danced naked on a grand piano with a Russian ballerina. These newspeople need to be drug tested. If Moore had “well-considered political and legal views, good judgement and a sterling reputation,” he would be part of the establishment. He would be a Mitch McConnell, a John McCain or perhaps an Al Franken. Who is trying to get a Democrat elected in Alabama? Is it the man who spent 9 million dollars to defeat him: Mitch McConnell?
He calls the homosexual, Milo Yiannopoulos a “white nationalist.” I have heard Yiannopoulos claim his boyfriend is black. He calls the claim that a globalist cabal within the Republican Party is thwarting Trump’s agenda. He next states that congressional Republicans “bite their tongues every day and play along with Trump.” In other words they are not motivated to pass Trump’s agenda. The charge “globalist cabal” is just a matter of semantics. Moore is a genuine threat to these people. He will have access to information that would embarrass or possibly jail half of our “representatives.”

Rich Lowry should remember, “a Southern man doesn’t need him around, anyhow!” Sweet Home Alabama! Vote Roy Moore for US Senate on Dec 12th on Dec 12th!

The Birmingham News has been on a rampage against Judge Roy Moore for many years, especially since their alleged lesbian editor took over as the main editor for the 3 largest newspapers in the state of Alabama and Judge Moore came out against sodomite marriage.

I've met her and she is VERY butch.

Kyle Whitmire is an effete "columnist" there (though he's married) and he's written with more vitriol against Judge Moore than anyone, with the possible exception of John "I forgot I declared bankruptcy and I've got a gay brother" Archibald.

They hate Judge Moore and they have made it clear that they do.

Their jobs are also dependent on pleasing their editor. Those 3 papers are owned by Advance and they have laid off over 40% of their employees in the past few years and now only print 3 days a week.

So you have lesbains and leftists calling the shots and maybe a couple of people who are afraid to speak out in fear of losing their jobs.

But this is a hate campaign of the highest order.

Have been told by people here in Alabama that Delbra is correct, but I don’t actually know her...

[hal ogen]

How is it that Judge Moore is “disgraced”? Only in the eyes of the perverts, LIBs and the Godless. I’d say the liars and cretins who are viciouslky attacking him with lies are “disgraced”. But, then, that is their natural state.

[Yaelle]

Well, to be fair, he was on heroin during that whole time. I suppose he is actually still alive.

[HotHunt]

The only “wannabe” in this picture is Rich Lowry.

Lowry and the other GOPE hacks are reminding us that we shouldn’t think for ourselves and trust the establishment, people like him and Rove to buy, eh vet our candidates, people who can be controlled when needed.

All this is the GOPE telling the peasants you will listen to us, you will continue to vote for, support and elect your betters. GTHGOPE!

[Yosemitest]

Thanks for clearing that detail up.

[RooRoobird20]

Rich, you lost a lot of credibility and respect when you became a NeverTrumper.

[Gene Eric]

The GOP-e is fighting to remain relevant. And thankfully it’s future looks grim.
