Forget that. What if it was about a Democratic Senator?
Menendez trial: Judge tells jury to start deliberations over againFour jurors and three alternates at the corruption trial of U.S. Sen. Bob Menendez told a federal judge Monday that they had read or heard something about the case over the weekend, prompting the judge to interview them one-by-one in his chambers.
The "corruption trial"? He's accused of trafficking in underage prostitutes, it has passed the stage of probable cause, he's being tried and the jury is deliberating--with some obvious political fanfare from some of the jurors.
Dems mum on whether Menendez should step down if convictedSee? There are no standards. Any Republican running away from Judge Moore is doing so strictly because they disagree with his politics, but want us to evaluate the charges as though they were meritorious and somehow strike a moral pose. I cannot be relied upon to do that, because the establishment is what's wrong with this country.

Well we are finding out about a lot more people than just Weinstein now, which I think is telling in the wake of Hillary Clinton's defeat.

We should take the establishment at its word that Islam is not the enemy. That leaves one possibility left: it's the establishment itself.

It wouldn't surprise me a bit if their sales fall. I don't think it will be as bad as the NFL, but I think Trump supporters--and Trump isn't a Moore guy--hate the establishment more than anything anymore, and the lack of action by the House and Senate is only fueling their rage. Trump's approval numbers have risen, while Congress' ratings have fallen.

Tell me Mr. follow-the-money jimjam, is Keurig pulling their lobbying dollars from the Democrats for supporting Menendez's trafficking in underage prostitutes?

You never tire of that shtick do you? You voted for Hillary even though she stood by a rapist politician. That didn't bother you, and it didn't bother her either. Why the caution? Why not a belief in the justice system? If Moore could be convicted--and I know you know he can't be--he could be removed from the Senate. Yet, the Menendez story is buried in the back pages of the newspapers even though it met the threshold of probable cause.
Drlee wrote:I note that when Bill Clinton got a blowjob from an adult in the Oval Office, the right came unstuck. Long before the allegations were proved true they were calling for his impeachment.
People were calling for his impeachment for crooked financial dealing regarding White Water. Starr was not able to substantiate charges against the Clintons themselves, but was able to convict the likes of Web Hubbell. Starr also investigated orthogonol matters, like the rumors that Clinton had an affair with Monica Lewinsky--something he directly denied while under oath in the Paula Corbin Jones sexual harassment suit. Keep in mind, Hillary Clinton was all about trashing the female plaintiffs alleging sexual misconduct at that time. Well, they could have gotten away with it had Clinton not lied, but once the semen-stained dress was admitted into evidence, it was all but over other than the Senate wasn't going to convict him. This is why it's pointless to take sexual scandals seriously anymore. They have no moral bearing whatsoever.
Drlee wrote:Now remember that Moore is the guy who brandished a firearm at a political rally.
Are you campaigning for him or against him? Remember, his supporters love that about him.
Drlee wrote:He ran on an openly racialist agenda.
Hillary Clinton ran on an openly sexualist agenda. Welcome to identity politics, where white people aren't a majority and many of them aren't interested in playing the PC game anymore.
Drlee wrote:But in the end it will be white women who disappoint us again.
White women like Hillary Clinton who didn't take her husband's political advice and lost an easily winnable presidential election?
