Minutes before the Washington Post published a story where five women accuse Senate candidate Roy Moore of improper conduct, the news site Brietbart published a story pushing back against their stories.
Roy Moore, the Republican Senate candidate in Alabama, made a similar effort on Thursday to head off The Washington Post’s report that he allegedly initiated a sexual encounter with a 14-year-old and dated teenagers when he was in his 30s. But Moore did not use Twitter or any official campaign channel. He used Breitbart News.
Minutes before The Post published its report, Breitbart posted a preemptive response from Moore under one of its signature, all-caps headlines: “AFTER ENDORSING DEMOCRAT IN ALABAMA, WASHINGTON POST PLANS TO HIT ROY MOORE WITH ALLEGATIONS OF INAPPROPRIATE RELATIONS WITH TEENAGERS; JUDGE FIRES BACK DENIAL.”

I do believe the age of consent in Alabama to be 15, unless they changed it recently.
Alabama: An individual who is 19 years old or older has sexual contact with someone who is younger than 16 but older than 12 has committed sexual abuse.Nov 9, 2016
You can look up the term “churched” if you don’t know what that means.
what the dems are after is reducing voter turnout by going after a key strength of moore’s and making him out to be a holier than thou hypocrit. This will affect a certain amount of turnout. It’s an aggressive ploy and will impact his numbers. But will it be enough? Who knows?
Doug Jones is running non-stop TV ads down here pretending to be a reasonable conservative. The way he talks in the ads you would hardly know he’s a dem.
McConnell accuses Republicans of sleeping with hookers.
Ryan & McConnell are projecting their lust for pre-teen girls.
Hey Ryan, get over your disgusting fantasy of teenage girls. You sicko.
Thanks.
All the RINOS ARE BEHIND THIS, THE FEAR A REAL CONSERVATIVE, WOULD RATHER HAVE THE CLINTONS TOOL STRANGE.
It’s people like you who still think there’s a difference between the R and D next to these douches’ names that is the prescription for political death and a ticket to abolute national socialism.
Bannon has been for Moore since the beginning. Which is why I’m convinced this is all McConnell’s doing. Smearing Moore is an attempt to smear Bannon as well. If Moore goes down then Bannon goes down too.
I think you’re right about McConnell’s larger intention. But it’s a yuge longshot. If Moore goes down hard, Bannon and Breitbart News might take a hit, but they’d recover quickly.
I have been a Republican and Conservative since age 21 and am now well into my eighties. I know what I’m talking about. You split the Republican Party and the socialists will roll over both like a steamroller, and that my friend is a fact. It is far better to change the Republican party away from the party of special interests into a strong conservative party. If you look carefully at all that is going on you will see our political enemies who are pushing this divide. Teach and preach conservative principles - President Trump is doing it.
They've accused Moore of propositioning under-aged girls. I can't think of a much worse crime to be accused of from a political career standpoint. If they succeed in bringing Moore down and planting a permanent pedophile label on him, then Bannon and Brietbart will always be known as the group that backed a child molester. That will wreck them as a candidate support organization. McConnell would love that.
As a Jewess on the US, I can only point out that the number of women who allegedly DATED, but had no sex with, Roy Moore is EXACTLY the same number who accused President Clinton of FORCIBLE RAPE, a FAR more serious offense. Now we know why all REAL Americans put our 2nd Amendment FIRST. Just sayin’!
Shouldn’t there be a Conservative Party first, so they don’t vote for a worse party...Democrats?
In Alabama girls could consent at 14, then changed to 16 around 2004? Obviously 12 prior to that. So the people making up story forgot about changes and dates, when deciding to say she was 14!
