Dem. Rep: Roy Moore Will 'Harken Us Back to the Days of Segregation'

Alabama Democratic Representative Terri Sewell appeared on ABC News’ “This Week” to discuss the senatorial special election between GOP candidate Roy Moore and Democratic candidate Doug Jones. Rep. Sewell warned voters that Roy Moore will take the state “back to the days of segregation.”

"We who have been proud Alabamians know that we have been trying to overcome our painful past, and this candidate, Roy Moore, will only take us backwards and harken us back to the days of segregation,” Sewell said.

She also added that the people of Alabama “deserve a senator whose character and integrity won’t be in question” adding “there’s no reason to doubt” Moore’s sexual harassment accusers. 

.@RepTerriSewell to @ThisWeekABC: “If Roy Moore goes to Washington, we will always be questioning his character.” https://t.co/r8pECECbmF #ThisWeek pic.twitter.com/ZnHvT33HnH— ABC News Politics (@ABCPolitics) December 10, 2017

It is worth noting similar racial rhetoric regarding a GOP politician was also deployed by Vice President Joe Biden in 2012, when he told a crowd of largely African-American American voters that GOP Presidential candidate Mitt Romney wanted to "put them all back in chains." 

The special election is slated for this Tuesday, December 12th.

[I]t looks as though Trump is… saying that Israel's sovereignty over Jerusalem is negotiable...
It's exactly what he said:

That’s still on your first page of posts.

It’s very easy to browse through your posts, and see you trolling a wide variety of topics.

I was just looking through some of your posts about Judge Moore, where you pretend his accusers are telling the truth.

Is there any topic in which you hold a conservative view?

That's a direct quote from the transcript of Trump's address on Jerusalem provided by the White House. And in retrospect I should have said Israel's sovereignty over all of Jerusalem rather that Jerusalem itself. Poor wording on my part, and for the record I did not mean to say or imply that Trump believes Israel's claim to any part of Jerusalem is negotiable or at risk.

What I have said is that I don't know if they are telling the truth or not. We do know that they have claimed to know Moore and that Moore has denied it. One side or the other is lying. Where is that wrong?

America is presently a segregated nation. We no longer need to worry about bus seats or water fountains but several of the various black subcultures have segregated themselves from mainstream America.

So you didn’t mean any of the things you said?

Why don’t you go back to all of your liberal posts, and post retractions?

Harvard is racist and a bastion of white privilege. They don’t want to walk in cap and gowns with the black graduates.

I meant it all. I can't be responsible for your confusion.

I can't think of any liberal posts I made. And I do not see any need to retract any of my other ones.

Have a nice day.

I never doubted that you meant every liberal word you uttered, even when you denied it in post 102 of this thread.

And I have no doubt that you consider them all liberal. I just don't accept your opinion.

Of course you don’t accept my opinion. You’re not open to conservative opinions. And with that, we’ve come full circle. I was right to begin with.

I'm not open to wrong opinions. Conservative has nothing to do with it.
