Will Roy Moore Win Because Of Gloria Allred?
newsweak ^ | 12/8/17 | JOHN HALTIWANGER

Posted on 12/09/2017 12:10:51 PM PST by MarvinStinson

One of the women accusing Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore of assaulting her as a teenager said on Friday she added the date and venue to an inscription from Moore in her high school yearbook, prompting attacks on her credibility and the competence of her lawyer, Gloria Allred. Many conservatives accused the attorney of mishandling the situation and claimed she'd essentially handed victory to Moore just four days before the election.

Beverly Young Nelson told ABC News she amended an inscription from Moore in her high school yearbook, adding the date and location. Nelson maintained the rest of the note was written by Moore, though he and his lawyers have repeatedly stated he did not sign the yearbook. The inscription states: "To a sweeter more beautiful girl I could not say Merry Christmas. Christmas 1977. Love, Roy Moore, DA. 12-22-77 Olde Hickory House."

In November, Nelson claimed Moore attempted to force her to perform a sex act when she was a teenager in the 1970s and he was the deputy district attorney of Etowah County and in his 30s. She offered the yearbook inscription as evidence to bolster her accusation. At the time, Nelson and her lawyer, Allred, said the inscription was written by Moore and did not mention that Nelson had added the date and location. But Nelson's acknowledgement she wrote part of the note somewhat contradicts that. Some have since claimed Nelson admitted she "forged" the inscription, but this is not the case.

Allred held a press conference on Friday and brought a report from forensic document expert that said the note and signature were written by Moore and said the date and location were written by Nelson to "remind herself who Roy Moore was." It was not clear from her comments when Nelson made those additions.

>>...a signature stamp to sign court documents for him she would add her initials behind his name.<<

Just like secretaries would type their initials on all letters back when. Accountability.

‘In 2004, I used to say that I wanted to kiss Dan Rather. He cinched it for W over Kerry.’

The Swift Boat Veterans for Truth defeated Kerry. And Rove hated and criticized them every step of the way.

Thune, Ryan, Tillis, Flake, and Gardner are still attacking Moore. TCruz rescinded his endorsement but has said nothing since. TCruz must have missed the lesson on “due process of law.”

Sean Hannity chose Moore blindly because of the R, the swamp, and what he knew about Moore prior. He moved heaven and earth to get Moore on his show the next day to exculpate him, clear his name.

The only reason Sean softened his tune after interviewing Moore is that Moore was lying to him and Sean could tell. He interviews people for a living and he has a pretty good judge of character or truth telling.

I am sure Sean is rooting for Moore to win, as am I, for seat purposes. Also we are probably both assuaged by there being no evidence Moore sought out any age females since getting married.

The “nation stage” needs cleansing by fire.

Doug Jones would not be a step in that direction. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Judge Moore would be a step in that direction.

Wasn’t he addressed in the Senate once as “the distinguish motorist from Massachusetts”?

It has been reported that Ms. Nelson had a case before Judge Moore at some time, and that it was dismissed. She would have a copy of the Ruling.

The most useful lie of the presser was not the claim that Moore wrote the whole inscription, but rather Nelson claiming never to have interacted with Moore after the alleged assault. In fact, she claimed to have quit her job the next morning so that she would not have to see Moore (supposedly a regular at the restaurant – a claim contradicted by actual regulars) ever again.

The lie claiming Moore wrote the date and venue was a completely unforced error. If she'd simply said she added the two lines after she got home that night, everyone would have shrugged and said, "OK, let's test the ink's age."

Oh please Nelson’s credibility was in doubt long before this admission.

Judge Roy Moore will win the senate seat in Alabama for many reasons...too many to count.

But a gem is the Communist, Democrat, Doug Jones invitation to Democrats, Senator Cory Booker and ex-Massachusetts Governer, Deval Patrick both radical left-wingers of the Obama/Clinton mode. Both will be in Alabama this weekend to campaign with and for Doug “The Baby Killer” Jones.

I am certain the voters of Alabama are overjoyed to have both Northeastern, Democrats, Booker (New Jersey) and Patrick (Massachusetts) visit Alabama and tell the “Rubes & Redneck, Religious freaks in Alabama just how to vote.

You gotta wonder about that nutcase Doug Jones.....is he with it or what? Alabama, vote for Judge Roy Moore on election day, Tuesday, December 12, 2017 and MAGA!!!

He’ll win for the same reason he’s Southern, by the grace of God.

I am getting tired of how blatantly the MSM lies. There are not women who have made accusations of sexual misconduct. There are two. The rest have stated Moore dated or ask to date them but they have never said is behavior was objectionable let alone criminal.

I pray that the people in AL can understand what a smear is.

“Posted on Twitter yesterday by Judge Moore:

“I am officially announcing this afternoon I filed lawsuits against each of my false accusers for libel and or slander. And I will not settle, see you in court.””

DESERVES A REPOST! Yeah baby!!

I forget which of Allreds crazy cases it was...but she was actually forced to go into a court room..everybody said it was a scream...she knew none of the protocols or procedures. Judge just looked and shook his head..

Something tells me that just maybe that year book doesn’t even belong to her..

She will never be trusted nor believed..

as for the other accusers they too are telling made up FAIRY TALES..all because democrats and liberals FEAR, JUDGE ROY MOORE AND DJT WORKING TOGETHER.. and they should..because the swamp will get drained faster...

SAYING A PRAYER FOR TUES..THAT THE WILL OF THE LORD AND THE GOOD PEOPLE OF ALABAMA ARE HEARD AND liberals shut up with these wild made up stories...it just lowers their creditability.

Has there ever been a clear image of the rest of that yearbook page and the page next to it? I ask b/c I could only get freezes from a youtube video of the press conference.

The other messages are kind of odd. Crossed out portions and a torn page...? Also the inscription on the page opposite the "Roy Moore" writing appears to be a poem as well "Violets are blue Roses are red"? something like that.

I just found it a little weird.
