If Alabama votes Moore in now, knowing his past, loud social conservatism will become synonymous with child molestation for years to come.

(9,740 posts)Loud social conservatism will denounce Democrats for much lesser sins, though. Some things never change, especially IOKIYAR.

(6,979 posts)This is where Dems fall down on the job, in that they have to CONTINUE giving it back to thuglicans.
Keep reminding them that they are the party of pedophilia. One thing I have to admire about thuglicans (And it's one of the only 2 things) is that they KNOW how to stay on point. They can really do it when they're LYING.

(362 posts)If he wins conservatives will have knowingly voted in a child molester. Moore will be a poster boy for everything wrong with conservatives for decades to come.
Its disgusting and distasteful that we should be having this conversation, but I dont really expect good taste and decorum from the Republican Party.

(31,261 posts)I have pointed out before that I am a Warm Deist when it comes to beliefs. I think that God has laid a perfect trap for rightwing Christians so that others will clearly see what they are. Imagine being the teenage daughter or son of a parent or parents that call themselves moral Christians, but who voted for and still support Trump and plan to vote for Moore? How can the children take the morality of the parent(s) seriously?

(31,261 posts)Warm Deist believe in a God that sometime move affairs, like make certain events happen.
You are thinking of Cold Deists, who believe in God but believe that God made the world and left it and does not monitor affairs in the world or get involved to cause right to happen.
