Roy Moore now says he doesn’t remember if he pursued teen girls in his 30s

Yesterday, he called the Post's story fake news.

On Friday afternoon, embattled Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore appeared on Sean Hannity’s radio show to discuss Thursday’s Washington Post report detailing allegations that he sexually assaulted a 14-year-old and pursued sexual relationships with other teens while he was in his 30s.

Moore’s initially denied the allegations in their entirety but he was far more equivocating with Hannity. Though he denied even knowing the youngest alleged victim, then 14-year-old Leigh, Moore acknowledged that he did know two of the other victims named in the report. He denied allegations that he engaged in unlawful behavior with any of them, including one anecdote that he provided one underaged victim with wine.

When asked by Hannity if he had any recollection of dating teenage girls when he was in his mid-thirties, Moore said “it would out of my customary behavior,” but stopped short of denying that he did. At another point in the interview he said he didn’t “generally” remember pursuing girls that young. Instead, Moore seemed to validate some of the Post’s reporting, confirming, for instance, that he would seek permission from a girl’s mother before he would try to date her.

Following the interview, Moore’s campaign released another statement addressing the Post’s report. The new statement denied “providing alcohol to minors” and “sexual misconduct” but did not specifically deny pursing sexual relationships with teenagers as an adult.

1. Why, I'll bet he can't even remember what office he's running for

But he knows for sure that God told him to do it.

[get the red out]

2. I must have a good memory

Since I recall guys I dated in college back in the 1980s way too well, and they were my age!

[DFW]

6. Funny thing about that

I remember all the girls I dated in college, too, and that was 1970-1974. But then, they were either my age, a year older or a year younger.

[CottonBear]

3. The 10 Commandments don't prohibit raping underage girls, so he's good.

Moore is an evil monster and child rapist. He should be in prison.

[JDC]

4. This is the first step in his withdrawing from the race

“For the good of Alabama.” He will on no way apologize, and still make it all about political assignation, but he looks to me as if he’s on his way out

[Dale Neiburg]

5. Just for fun...

Can someone please ask him if he remembers any meetings with representatives of the Russian government?

[Tanuki]

7. Wait....there's more...

It sure sounds as if serial child molester Roy Moore is expecting more revelations from additional victims whom he will then undoubtedly revile and/or claim not to remember:

...."Moore said he expected more stories from The Post before the election.

"The Washington Post has attacked my foundation, my wife (who is president of the Foundation for Moral Law) and now they are attacking me personally on a sexual matter. I don't know what's coming next but I'm sure that in the next four weeks, they are going to come out with another article. Because they've got an agenda and they are fulfilling their agenda right as we speak."...

8. Who saw that coming?

OOoh, oooh! Me! Me! I did! I did!

These assholes all follow a script.

12. It's tough when you leave the "Minors" and get in the "Biglys."

Ask any Clinton or Obama.

13. GOP supports Sex with 10 - 14 year old girls.

The GOP supports Roy Moore pedophile for Senate!

[UCmeNdc]

14. If a 30 yr old Man takes a 10 - 14 years old girl out and removes their clothing he is a pedophile!

What's to wonder about?

[Sunlei]

15. so many underaged little girls driven to 'house in the woods', he doesn't remember.(about 1975 yrs?)

from wiki- Moore was discharged from the United States Army as a captain in 1974, and was admitted to the University of Alabama School of Law that same year. He graduated in 1977




also in wiki- Moore was known to be very strict. Some of his soldiers gave him the derogatory nickname "Captain America", due to his attitude toward discipline. This role earned him enemies, and in his autobiography he recalls sleeping on sandbags to avoid a grenade or bomb being tossed under his cot, as many of his men had threatened him with fragging.[19]

19. Guilty. (nt)

20. "he would seek permission from a girls mother before he would try to date her."

Yes, because of course a mother has the right to pimp her daughter to a man twice her age.
Not to mention that, according to at least one of the girls, Moore took pains to hide what he was doing from the parents.

21. That requires a pretty poor memory...

Kinda like not recalling if you ate any food when you get handed the check.

“What’s this here charge, boy?”

“For the six bottles of champagne and three bottles of whiskey your party drank.”

“Now see here, son, we’re God-fearing Christians, we don’t drink likker.”

“There’s a picture on your phone of one of your toasts, drinks raised. You asked the waitress to take it.”

**delete** “ Well, now you’re just lyin’, boy. Ain’t no picture here.”
