Where does the Hypocrite Party stand on this one



Didn't matter with rapist Bill Clinton

Nothing matters more with Trump and Moore

Now? No big deal?

The endless rape/sexual assault accusations have made a lot of prominent (and more importantly, wealthy) men vulnerable, and it seems the opportunists are rising to the occasion.

It isn't good for anyone to have so many allegations floating around, especially when they range from totally false to immature pranks with sexual undertones (Franken) to full blown rape of a (or more than just one) minor (Moore).

The lines between the incidents are blurring because of the timing as well as the media treating them like the most exciting story since Trump embarrassed the US on the global stage for the millionth time.

There is definitely a sort of hysteria that takes over when dealing with these issues and not everyone is capable of making the distinctions that need to be made, especially when it has become so politicized.

Not defending the cretin, but just want to point out that Moore hasn't been accused of rape. Sexual assault, yes. Rape, no.

Sexual assault of a minor should be considered rape. I know that's what I consider it to be.

Sexual assault on a minor makes one a pedophile in my book.

Regardless, it isn't rape. And it doesn't help discussions about the topic to characterize it as something that it isn't.

Yes! Accuracy is paramount! We wouldn't want to accuse people for things of which they are not guilty. That would be wrong.



Quality!

Does anyone actually look at this photo and think 'that fucking pervert was so turned on'?
I mostly got the impression that he thought she was an uptight, vapid bitch and was deliberately antagonizing her for the lulz.

Over a decade later, she's still bitter about it and saw an opportunity for revenge.

It's not appropriate, but it's a far cry from the overtly predatory sexual nature of the Trump/Moore stuff.

Well, the butcher’s bill for sexual misconduct just added another name: Charlie Rose. Eight women have accused Rose, who serves as a co-host for CBS This Morning and acts as a contributing reporter for 60 Minutes, of sexual misconduct. They all worked or had applied to work on his PBS show, Charlie Rose. The Washington Post had a lengthy article on the subject. Most of the women refused to go on-the-record out of fear of retribution, though they allege that Mr. Rose had a “volatile temper,” which was peppered with lewd phone calls, being naked in their presence, and inappropriate touching of their breasts and genital regions. In a statement to the Post, Rose offered a rather vague statement, where he apologized for some aspects of his past behavior, though he never explicitly cited which actions he was showing contrition for...

Michigan Rep. John Conyers, a Democrat and the longest-serving member of the House of Representatives, settled a wrongful dismissal complaint in 2015 with a former employee who alleged she was fired because she would not “succumb to [his] sexual advances.”

Documents from the complaint obtained by BuzzFeed News include four signed affidavits, three of which are notarized, from former staff members who allege that Conyers, the ranking Democrat on the powerful House Judiciary Committee, repeatedly made sexual advances to female staff that included requests for sex acts, contacting and transporting other women with whom they believed Conyers was having affairs, caressing their hands sexually, and rubbing their legs and backs in public. Four people involved with the case verified the documents are authentic.

bubba clinton was in the court of public opinion 20+ years ago and every week or so since.
dunno if you noticed, but times have changed. He cant be tried in a court of law, he cant be dismissed, he cant be impeached, has he had new accusers? could you please show me them???

bill is no longer president, or likely to be a senator, or a house member ever again.

I see your need to hold onto the past and only concentrate on dems, I understand.
You can call him a rapist all you want, but surely it doesn't mean that child molesters, and trump, Shortey, should be called any different. surely????
What? it does? wow, your mental acuity is broken beyond repair.

You can try to ignore trumps and moores accusers all you want. They aren't going away.
PS you are the one unable to see the double standard.
You are ignoring the republicans accusers, completely.
Because of your political bias, because of your whole ideology about women.
Even by your "standards" Republicans who support Moore(applying the associated guilt) are defending and gonna vote a child molester into the senate. over party and talibangelical "rightist family values".
