Paul Ryan Says Moore Should 'Step Aside,' Allegations 'Are Credible'
CNN ^ | 11/14/17 | Phil Mattingly, Lauren Fox and Eli Watkins

Posted on 11/14/2017 2:46:03 PM PST by Enlightened1

House Speaker Paul Ryan called allegations leveled against Alabama Republican Senate candidate Roy Moore about pursuing relationships with teenage girls and committing sexual assault "credible" and that he should step aside.

"He should step aside," Ryan told CNN Tuesday morning. "Number one, these allegations are credible. Number two, if he cares about the values that he claims to care about, then he should step aside." Ryan becomes the latest high-profile Republican voice to call on Moore to step aside, following more than two dozen Republican senators, including some of whom have suggested voting to expel Moore from the Senate should he win the December 12 special election.

One of the following 2 MUST BE TRUE:

1. Either Ryan, Cruz, Linda, and other deep-state Republicans know MORE INFORMATION than we, the public knows.

— OR —

2. A person’s guilt is determined, at least in part, based on whether they actually like the guy.

To put it another way - there is ZERO EVIDENCE publicly disclosed regarding Moore. Lots of hearsay from people who would rather see a Democrat in that seat, but ZERO EVIDENCE - at least that we know of.

Hey Ryan if you really believe what you say, then how come you do not apply the same standard to Hillary, Obama, Lois Lerner, Holder, etc....?

Because, in his heart, he is a democrat.

The same standard should be applied to Mitch McConnell, too.

What is Mitch McConnell Hiding?

Is this how the democrats control Mitch McConnell? Perhaps he is being controlled by blackmail.

A former President who had sex with an intern in the oval office is receiving a pension and other benefits. Should Ryan demand he be blocked from receiving them?

McConnell must be so proud. Rand Paul, his protégé, is doing very well indeed.

My pet goat reacts violently to pictures of Paul Ryan. I think Paul Ryan touched my goat. He must resign immediately for the sake of goats everywhere.

1. Either Ryan, Cruz, Linda, and other deep-state Republicans know MORE INFORMATION than we, the public knows.

And if #1 is true then these scumbags have an obligation to the people to present that information BEFORE they put a noose around his neck and lynch him. Not after.

But of course they have no such evidence.

Paul Ryan true to form....Not worth voting for.

Why has my Congressman who beats his chest and calls himself a “Conservative” and a “Patriot” have a track record of voting to elect Ryan speaker and Boehner before that?

I haven’t voted for him in past general elections and will not if he makes it past the primary in 2018 as well.

Has something changed? As of late yesterday Rand Paul was the only congresscritter left still supporting Roy Moore.

Incredible...and she was just barely of legal age.

Biden has also long been criticized for his contact with women and girls in photos and videos, and was even referred to as “Creepy Uncle Joe Biden” by the Washington Post.

Time to bring out the obscene/creepy pictures of Biden fondling girls/teenage girls and women of all ages!

“And if #1 is true then these scumbags have an obligation to the people to present that information BEFORE they put a noose around his neck and lynch him. Not after.”

Absolutely...I was debating saying that.

“But of course they have no such evidence.”

What else can we assume...since they would have disclosed it if they did have it (i.e., why hold back if they want him out).

Women love to talk.

Teenage females love to talk non-stop.

Moore wouldn’t have been able to cross the street without comment within a week.

He probably would have been beaten up or shot dead by an irate father or boyfriend within a week.

Unless theses allegations have been given to the media in the past, I won’t believe them now. Moore has been famous for years.

All it takes is one piece of paper, one envelope, one pen and one stamp to send a letter to the police, a newspaper, a politician or to the bar association.

Pay phones were common and calls cost about 10 cents.
