Also, Alabama, if you do elect Moore, we will concede that we should have let you leave the Union and you should go ahead and do so posthaste.

I totally believe he will win. Republicans will imbrace him and act like there are no accusers.

“Take Joseph and Mary. Mary was a teenager and Joseph was an adult carpenter. They became parents of Jesus.”

“Her abuse of those women aside”

She’s a total shit head.

There’s far too many gender issues in this story than one could unpack in ten lifetimes.

She really doesn’t seem to address the abuse and coercing these women to send naked pictures. A lot of “I felt trapped” but not a lot of “I was really shitty to these people for no discernable reason.”. The deceit isn’t the worst of her actions, but it’s the only one she’s addressing.

Great marketing for CarMax.

“...He described both women as laughing it off.

So your attitude is that when there is an “open secret” about a sexually abusive person but no one is willing to go on the record about it, people should refuse to ask follow-up questions and everyone should just be silent and ignore it?

I will not condemn a man on rumor alone.

I don’t even think it was malicious. Just, “FUCK MAN WHY ARE PEOPLE YELLING AT ME ABOUT THIS? WHAT, JEZEBEL SAID WHAT NOW? FUCK YOU JEZEBEL”. A totally understandable response when you’re under fire.

Here’s the simple fact: It’s The New York Times

I’ve come to a point where I have decided to believe ALL rumors of sexual assault and harassment. I’d rather side with a victim and be proved wrong than leap to the defense of a predator in the name of lofty ideals like “fairness”, thereby making it more difficult for women to come forward. There is nothing fair about…

I’m not sure why you’re bringing up the Washington Post? The New York Times broke the story earlier this morning — two different cities, two completley different media outlets.

It seems to me that you handled things very well, with Jen Kirkman. It’s unfortunate, if I had to guess, I’d say I think she was just frazzled by how much scrutiny she got, and lashed out at you guys. But you all did your job. This shit’s tough!

Thank you also for the much-needed periodic reminder that Mike Huckabee is garbage.

“a very regrettable dispute between two neighbors over a matter that most people would regard as trivial,”

Shows you how little empathy they have for other people that all they see is the “10/20 minutes of action” - not the fact that for the victims sexual assault changes the rest of our lifes.
