God bless you.

I don’t believe the accusations at this point, but the women who are involved, really it seems more like they’ve been outed, deserve better than they have received on this forum. I too have a family member who was a rape victim, my sister, and she had all sorts of disparaging things said about her by the popular college student’s supporters. They had bullied other victims into silence.

Conservatives should behave better than this.

“I too have a family member who was a rape victim”

There’s the rape word again. I don’t get it. It’s one thing to think people on this board, and conservatives in general, are jumping to conclusions, and being unfair and insensitive. Quite another to compare this situation to rape. Even if it was harassment and enough to oust Cain from the race, I am almost certain it wasn’t rape. Were it, you’d be hearing entire orchestras of bells and whistles pointing to it, instead of the vague hints of impropriety we get.

I’m also sure, nonetheless, that various people want you to think of rape. They benefit, whether politically or career-wise, by you filling in the gaps with your worst nightmares.

You don't believe the accusations but say the women should be treated better?

Stunning bit of logic there.

How do you think liars who attempt to take down political candidates should be treated?
