    Until it has been proven in a court of law he is not a pedophile.

    Regardless of party affiliation.

    But I guess the whole "proved beyond a reasonable doubt" is just a "legal technicality" to you right?

    Man you have tried every conceivable defense of this pedo...

    when are you going to get to ..."well it was only pedophilia"?

    I'm not you idiot. But you (and others) are way too quick to believe the worst about a person you already detest. I would wager good money that if he was a pro abortion/pro gay rights liberal agnostic liberal Democrat that you would be among the first screaming for "presumption of innocence" and "due process".

    Yeah, pretty much. Some middle aged guy sending dick pics to a teenage girl isn't exactly front page stuff.

    Say what you will about Weiner but he didn't deserve 21 months in prison.

    That's insane! A 32 year old courting a 14 year old is pedophilia, I don't care what decade you're in.

    80s were my later college and first professional years and I survived just fine. I was in my 20s and never occurred to me to court a 14 year-old child. My wife is 7 years younger than me, but she was 22 when I met her.

    You seem to have experienced a strange upbringing. What, according to you, did "pedophilia" mean in 1979?

    if true, he should step down.

    if folks come forward to confirm her story, he should step down.

    How can you make a moral judgment when the facts are not proven or verified in any way? Seems premature.

    Democrats elected a rapist. Would republicans electing an alleged pedophile be a step too far?

    Confirmation of something THIRTY EIGHT YEARS AGO which was never reported to law enforcement?

    And beyond the statute of limitations, for good reasons.

    I don't quite understand this new puritan attitude that's been going on, since at least Bill and Monica. Now we've got this weinstein dude, the weiner, trump grabbing crotches, tiger woods and his entourage of swedish groupies, etc.etc. etc.

    I wonder what's going to happen when women start saying that they were 15 when they were sexually assaulted by James Hetfield back in 1985 backstage at a metallica concert. Will the puritans be aghast when they learn about the concept of groupies? They obviously never heard of a casting couch until a few weeks ago, so this might come as quite a shock.

    Next thing you know, they'll be shocked to learn that there are places called "brothels" where young women are routinely taken advantage of by strange men for mere money.

    For sure. Look who you elected President. A ***** grabbing, spouse cheating, sexual preditor. Why stop now when you are on a roll.

    We'll overlook your rapist lie but the rest of that defense of a pedophile is revealing

    IIRC there was more current evidence against Bill Clinton for rape than there is against Moore for pedophilia.

    Oh, so accusations are irrelevant. Telling.

    The very second a 32 year old makes improper advances to a 14-year old it's pedophilia.

    "Proven beyond a reasonable doubt" is a legal concept. This is a moral issue. And party affiliation might not have to do with the legal aspects, but it's pretty obvious that, to you, it's definitive in the moral sense.

    It says a lot about your moral priorities. It says that you place partisanship before morality.

    But you shouldn't take that as a complete negative. It would be even worse if this had to be explained by something other than partisanship.

    So you believe accusations are relevant? Or are they only relevant when it is a Democrat.

    Not only that, but they supported all the rapist pedophiles in Hollywood with their purchases.

    What did you do about Roman Polansky, who was convicted of crimes? Nothing? Of course you did nothing. Idiots, all of you.

    Why not?

    They voted for a RACIST, MISOGYNISTIC, IMBECILIC P-Grabber as POTUS.
