Two reporters are in Alabama trying to discredit Roy Moore’s accusers. They haven’t found much
National Review ^ | November 14, 2017 | by THEODORE KUPFER

Posted on 11/14/2017 11:51:47 AM PST by Oldeconomybuyer

Roy Moore is a Steve Bannon fantasy candidate. He’s an insurgent populist, a self-described renegade who shares Bannon’s arsonist attitude toward the Republican establishment and cares little for the proprieties of D.C. Or the basic standards of a civilized society, apparently, given that two women have accused Moore of criminal sexual assault and three more say he tried to “date” them when they were teenagers and he was in his thirties.

But to Bannon, who has returned to a leadership role at Breitbart since leaving the Trump administration, deviance is working alongside Mitch McConnell, not setting a conduct bar so low that even Anthony Weiner can clear it. Bannon won’t let Moore’s odiousness stand in the way of his burn-it-down dreams: He’s a Leninist, a fire-starter, and he’s got a trick up his sleeve.

Make that two, in the form of Aaron Klein and Matthew Boyle, the reporters who together constitute Breitbart’s investigative team. Bannon has sent them down to Alabama on a mission to defend Moore and discredit the bombshell Post report from last week, and their work is already bearing fruit. Just yesterday they broke a whopping four stories, each headline beginning with a breathless “EXCLUSIVE.” Step aside, Bob and Carl — two new gunslingers just rode in.

Many Alabama voters think that Moore brings enough good to the table that it’s worth overlooking the bad, even as the bad gets worse, and worse, and worse. Breitbart is doing its best to persuade them to remain entrenched, while the party leadership has refused to go along with Moore and his predations. If Bannon wins, the Republican party will resemble a more sinister version of the Democrats circa ’96.

On second thought, maybe we should be thankful that he keeps Klein and Boyle around.

This is the yearbook that Roy Moore supposedly signed according to Gloria Allred.

1. Sevens are clearly different.
2. Handwriting up to Ray is one person, rest is a different person or persons.
3. Pen is clearly different.
4. Name in yearbook is Ray not Roy.
5. Signature is very different from Roy Moore’s actual signature.
6. Roy Moore was never a DA or District Attorney. It is weird that even if he was he would write it in a yearbook.
7. 12-22-77 was not written by the person who wrote the rest.
8. Olde Hickory House was not written by person who wrote beginning or 12-22-77

It looks like someone named Ray signed the yearbook in 1977. Moore, D.A., 12-22-77 and Olde Hickory House were later added with a different pen and different handwriting.
It looks like this woman is lying.

Comparison of Moore’s actual signature and the Ray on the yearbook here:

“The now 53 y/o woman who claims Judge Moore molested her at 14 is from a broken home, thrice divorced, attempted suicide at 16, and has had financial and legal problems. “

I hate to break this to you, but the behavior of the woman described in the above sentence, is pretty typical for someone who has been sexually abused at a young age.... I am not saying she’s telling the truth, but I am telling you, that sort of claims against her do more to support the fact she may have been abused than not.

If Roy had sex with 14 year old girls, thats a huge problem, if he dated legally aged teens in his 30s, that’s creepy, but not illegal. The fact they are muddying lots of accusations together makes me wonder about all of this.. but I am not going to say because an accuser has had a lot of issues in her life, that that’s an indications he’s not telling the truth... Been around enough sexual abuse victims who were abused at a young age to know just how much life long devastation it can and often does cause.

National Establishment Review.

No thanks. Stopped reading that rag long ago, along with the WSJ Editorial Page.

"That is so serious we have to assume that Ted should withdraw from public life and National Review should cut him loose. Its the seriousness of the charge that mandates it."

As Rep. Tom Lantos said to Craig Livingstone during the "Filegate" hearings: "With an infinitely more distinguished public record than yours, Admiral Boorda committed suicide when he may have committed a minor mistake."

She also has a history of making false accusations of sexual impropriety against male authority figures in her life. This, too, is consistent with actually having been sexually abused, by someone, but the behavior precedes any familiarity she may have had with Roy Moore to my understanding. This does not bolster her contentions, it undermines them. She made a habit in her life of falsely accusing men of sexual impropriety. Why is this accusation any different? I see little to support it, the recounting seems actually more like a carefully crafted statement to avoid making any actionable claims to me.

There was a Roy Moore who graduated in 1977: https://www.allhighschools.com/alumni-search/southside-high-school/roy-moore/5083198

This may be the Roy who signed her yearbook.

She is in class of 1979: https://www.allhighschools.com/alumni-search/southside-high-school/bev-young/5082985

I’m sounding like a broken record I know, but when I was 18 I met a 31 year old guy I wanted to date. He had a girl friend. They broke up. I turned 19. We started dating. The drinking age was 19. This was Alabama in about 1981.

We were not unusual in the circles we moved in. All of the musicians I knew dated younger women.

Why?

Because they could.

..it looks like somebody named “Roy” signed the yearbook with a black ink pen, and then somebody added “Moore” and the rest with a blue ink pen!


Actually, it was more likely signed by a guy named “Ray” , not “Roy”

Go up and look at the rest of the writing. The transition from cursive a to cursive y in “say “ is identical to the transition in the first name of the signature to “Ray” not “Roy”

In the Allred press conference, the name “Ray” was inadvertently used for “Roy” . Don't think that was a random accident. Allred and the accuser are aware that a guy named Ray signed the original and made a slip up.

Yes, looks like she knew someone named Roy, and the rest was added later.
