The Stephen Colbert show is just terrible now

[redbreegull]

but it was only one 14-year-old, the other people Moore assaulted were older so it's not as bad

I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of this is politically motivated B.S. orchestrated by the democrats to win the senate seat.

Where's all the outrage regarding Franken? That guy actually currently forces himself upon people sexually which some would feel is even morally worse than a guy in his late 20's having consensual sex with a 16 year old in the 70's.

Both gross and wrong, no doubt about it... But a lot of this shit is just liberal sensationalism. No ones tearing Franken apart in the liberal media....Gee RBG, why do you think that is?

everyone is calling on Franken to resign. you are so dumb

[redbreegull]

all you've done here is defend Roy Moore and then say that's not what you are doing

Weren't you born like six or seven years after the Moore incident?

[redbreegull]

or imply you believe the accusers and then question if they are being paid. what the fuck is wrong with you

it's like you are trying to dog whistle support for Moore while publicly condemning him. but there is no one here for you to dog whistle to

[fuzzyroes]

Even though Moore was clearly in the wrong, at least there isn't evidence of him doing any such thing in 40 years. Maybe he came to his senses and awakened and gained some perspective... Still doesn't excuse his actions, but it's at least somewhat admirable that he changed his ways.

Can't say the same about Conyers or Franken.

Franken admitted to what he did and everyone is calling on him to resign. Fuck him anyway. And fuck Conyers

but Roy Moore is a sexual predator and a child molester. it doesn't matter that it happened 40 years ago fuzzy. even you admitted this. it doesn't matter so stop using it as a defense.

serious tip for future arguments: don't concede your point is wrong and then continue using it.

Hey, I'm just saying I don't know for sure. Who the fuck knows the truth?

Either way, I think a lot of this is media driven sensationalism in order to get the Democrat elected. In that regard I will be kind of happy if he wins, just to stick it to the system. And I trust Bannon politically and Bannon swears by the guy and besides, a Democrat winning won't do Trump any favors in what he's trying to do.

A lot within the party yes... But you don't see an iota of the crucification from the media that Moore is getting.

[redbreegull]

thanks for constantly reassuring me that you are in fact an intentionally despicable piece of shit who deserves to be shamed and abused

Therefore you play down what Moore is said to have done and make excuses for him?

Zero sense made.

[redbreegull]

"I'm not defending Roy Moore, I'm just defending him."

"I'm not saying it's less bad if it happened 40 years ago, I'm just saying it's less bad."

"I'm not saying he didn't do it, I'm just saying I think the accusers were paid by the Democrats."

"What he did is really really horrible, no excuse. I hope he wins because he's on my team."

[reprise85]

good, easy rule that we can all follow: people who sexually abuse others should not hold office. that goes for either party. that includes grown-ass men who have sex with teenagers. it includes people who grope others. people who rape others. people who sexually harass others. ALL OF THEM

there is so much evidence that roy moore was known for going after teenagers in particular. not only from the women themselves, but from others. just fucking accept it and be a decent person and accept that he should not be elected just because he is on your team of racists and neo nazis

[redbreegull]

I hope no one ever forgets that this was the day on which fuzzyroes used Kiss lyrics to defend raping teenagers

[buzzard]

Isn't Moore also said to have been banned from the Gadsden Mall in Alabama at some point during the late seventies or eighties for repeatedly harassing teenage girls?

So much for "socially acceptable," eh.

[redbreegull]

but.... rockstars

[fuzzyroes]

Hey look, I'm not trying to say that the guy isn't a creep. But if you're gonna throw out everyone in American politics who's ever acted inappropriately to women then you're not gonna be left with many people.

When it comes to politics you really have to kind of ignore the candidates character and vote more on what you actually wanna see accomplished. Having a democrat win in Alabama would be bad for Trump and his agenda.

really?
is that why you were so against hilairy? that didn't have anything to do with her perceived character?

Sex pests are not fit for office, regardless of party.

And before you even start, I would ******* Bill Clinton in that pile.

So, Franken's (rightfully) gone. Any other futile arguments you care to trot out?

Can't say the same about Conyers or Franken.

He is flat out denying any of it ever took place (see also: lying through his fucking teeth, ala Trump). If he was such a big man, wouldn't he admit to his transgressions and spare his accusers further pain?

[Cool As Ice Cream]

sure, one or two sex offences, that can happen.

i have completely stopped sex offending. i do maybe one or two teenagers a month.

maybe slick willy abused his power but monica was a consenting party nonetheless.

you can't say the same for the rape victims of trump and moore and the women sexually assaulted by louis c. k and harvey weinstein or the 321,500+ victims of rape and sexual assault each year

regardless of how loathsome bill is, you really can't conflate the two acts. that's dangerous, y0.

[redbreegull]

bill clinton has been accused of rape

[ilikeplanets]

the fuck does any of this have to do with stephen colbert? is he a rapist too? i knew i didn't like him
