with a wicked case of degenerate "republican family values.

Deplorable.

Now Trump has joined the pack, because Bannon told him to.
Hide your daughters, Alabama.

...watch out for the next "eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth," accusation coming from those quarters.

They don't seem to have much imagination, but what they have they use over and over and over...

he molested me because she did not follow him around 24/7 and should have made sure I was not in the house alone when he was there and she had to be somewhere else. What pathetic slime's.

My mother has been able to move on somewhat from it also.

I specifically know two families where the male (father) molester was spared reporting to police when discovered. The threat from the family lawyer was always that mom would also be considered at fault too, since she should have known earlier. Dad's psychiatrist insisted that the young child was 'too young to remember' so it was extra cruel to create this storm. She backed down.

In the other case, the mom did not respond to bullying (this as in AL, btw) and went to court - the old boy system worked. Dad had money and pull. No charges, full custody. The child - now grown and married - is also a molester.

if they needed to monitor him

I watched this on Andrea Mitchell. It was not the bombshell it was set up for. The officer said until recently she didn't know the warning was about underage girls. She said they never got any actual complaint. She just heard to watch out for him regard young women. I'm not used to seeing MSNBC pull a dud, it was disappointing.

The officer uses the word girls.

ARE GIRLS....NOT WOMEN!!!

Typically the oldest age a high school teenager can be is 18. The lowest is 15. But we know he also dabbles with 14. These aren't women. They're children caught unaware by a deviant man's aggression.

Your defense of this pervert on this board is.....disappointing at the least. Suspicious as hell if I'm going to be perfectly honest.

How do you explain the discrepancy between what you saw and the other commenters?

I've been a member since the Bush years. Credibility is lost when BS is pushed. It's not fair that they get away with it while we hold to higher standards, but there it is. She had no idea this was about underage women until a week ago and there was never a formal complaint. I believe her at her word. I'm sure there are better witnesses and I hope they come forward. As for the discrepancy between me and others, I actually watched the interview. Did you?

"W" has been out of office since January 2009 - that's more than 8 years ago.
How often do you post on DU? - Once a month?

She seemed to be trying to protect herself from any responsibility of not doing more to protect underage girls, by stating her ignorance of his interest in girls, by emphasizing that she only thought he was interested in young women. That's my take, that maybe she feels a bit guilty in hindsight and thought Andrea Mitchell might turn tables on her and criticize her for not doing more to protect the girls.

Roy Moore's defenders could actually use her statement to defend him, the way she says she only thought he was interested in young women, not girls and said that no complaints had ever been filed against him, although she says at the time she was expecting some complaints to be filed.

Most "high school cheerleaders" are under the age of 18, especially in the fall, during football season.

There WERE "actual complaints" concerning him badgering underage girls at the local mall,

Also, 14, 15, and 16-year-olds are often referred to as "young women"

"I'm not used to seeing MSNBC pull a dud, it was disappointing."
How often do you actually watch MSNBC?

Seems nothing has changed. Moore will probably be elected. He's a "good 'ol boy."

Anything dirty, nasty and low-down rises to the top in Alabama.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think know Alabamans. I wish Alabama was not a part of the Union.

I love my country. I despise Alabama.

The kid behind me tickled me under my arms during math class in Alabama. The teacher said and saw nothing. What a bunch they are. A pretty, sweet, naive, young is just a plaything to a certain mean crew of men and boys, and no one says or does anything. At least, that's the way it was back then. It was long ago, but when I read about the Moore voters, I am reminded.

My apologies to the decent people in Alabama. I know you exist. You are like my friends were. But the number of low-down, nasty ones is higher than anywhere I have ever been other than maybe "Hollywood." And Hollywood is only a small part of Los Angeles or California. Most of California where I live is pretty decent. I was sexually harassed once in California. Guess what! The guy was from Alabama. So much for Alabama men.

And I invite you to respond if you think I am wrong about Alabama. Maybe things have changed, but my memories are really ugly.

central texas now between dallas and austin - and I find it much worse here if that's possible. At least in Birmingham it seemed half and half (us and them) and people were informed. Here...only know one or two people who seem to know anything about what's happening in the world.

And he'll get all those good Christian votes.

how is it a big Alabama bubba didn't deal with him - the man was a KNOWN PREDATOR

... and Moore went on to become a District Attorney and Judge?

Isn't Alabama in the "Bible belt"?
Where were their 'family values'?

Moore gave some years ago, recalling his meeting his wife, Kayla. And he FIRST saw her, at age 15 or 16, at a dance recital for girls. He was a grown man, a professional, with no children, attending a teen girl dance recital!! For what purpose? He was recounting to the interviewer how he remembered this lovely young girl, and when he came upon her again, YEARS later, he knew it was her. They married with her 24 and him 39. I wanted to throw up. He was just smiling and retelling this tale of romance like it was perfectly wonderful. But this old perv was and is one of THOSE guys, who hang around kiddie beauty pageants and recitals because that's what gets him going. There is a LOT more of this to come out.

about how hot Paris Hilton was when she was 12. Creepy

- Trump told the camera - I'm going to date her when she gets older.

and another woman stated, in a U.S. District Court deposition, (also under oath), that she witnessed Trump rape the 13-year-old girl.

...community-wide tacit acceptance of his predatory behavior.

"We can keep an eye on him" reminds me of at least one sick family system of denial about dear old dad once the adults found out.

Ew.

That's the million dollar question. Someone should answer it.

Moore says those Christian mothers gave permission to date their daughters

…..community, given the choice they made of who to protect. Wow.

Will enough independents and some republican women believe her, over Moore, to defeat Moore.?

Perhaps they are Moore voters, and they do not vote at all. Will this video make a difference? This ex police officer sure sounds honest. Will this make a difference?

If that yearbook shows to be faked, it will hurt ALL the other stories.
Outside of that, I think Jones will squeak by

They like how he is on the issues.

The Pussy Grabber won, and that was the swing states.

These accusations do not work. Go back to the issues.

what sexual creeps they are...disgusting.

So she would have had to press charges while still a teenager, still traumatized and in fear of Roy Moore

Trump's kind of place

to try and slip one over on us and plant a fake supposed witness like her and then "expose" her as a fake in order to try and discredit the whole story about Moore going after underage girls for sex.

Has not really ever tried to protect women in this way. Cheerleaders at a game in AL 40 years ago? Just don’t see any school trying to protect them like that.

...they did it to keep Moore out of trouble. Moore was already a DA then, they couldn't have him seducing the daughters of their finest Republican families. Anybody else's daughters, nobody cared about.

Ugh, he makes me sick.

there is no reason to jump on the bandwagon to believe this.

Does anyone know if the media has been able to dig up any past police reports on this guy? He should have been locked up, nevermind elevated to a judge position. Wonder what went wrong here and why he was able to escape the law time & time again.

I wonder about that too

Is she okay?

Alabama is the state where a popular Democrat, former Governor Don Siegelman, was railroaded by Karl Rove, a corrupt U.S. Attorney (Laura Canary), and a corrupt judge.

(Alabama could be the most corrupt state in the nation)
