But not a surprise.


A god fearing paedophile beats a liberal saint every time.

You seem upset that Ray Moore lost.

Ignoring the sexual assault allegations, Moore's career is riddled with details indicating that the man is, objectively speaking, a despicable lunatic: At various points, he has opined that Minnesota representative Keith Ellison is unfit to serve in Congress because of his Muslim faith; that kneeling during the national anthem is illegal; and that homosexual conduct should be illegal. Oh, he also supported the removal of his own party's Senate Majority Leader as soon as it becomes practicable.

This man as state Supreme Court justice was removed from office twice for failing to comply with various court orders—not a good look for a judge.

Moore refused to talk to a Washington Post reporter, citing their employer's endorsement of his opponent, Doug Jones, while simultaneously demonstrating a remarkably shoddy grasp of how reporting works.

"Y’all endorsed my opponent already, so, you know, that’s a hard position to be in,” Moore said. “But all these newspaper reporters, I wish y’all would print me as I am, and not as otherpeople say I am. That’s the only thing."

Yes, how dare a newspaper print an editorial in which it expresses an opinion about Roy Moore's fitness for office based on things he has said and done? Don't they know it's rude to point out that an unrepentant bigot with no respect for the law is, in fact, an unrepentant bigot with no respect for the law?

The exchange continues:

“Okay. How are you? Who are you?” a reporter asked.

“Well, I’m a lot different than how the Washington Post is portraying me, that’s for sure,” Moore said. “I don’t hate people. I’m a Christian. I don’t hate people.”

No, Roy Moore does not hate people. He just has repeatedly demonstrated a sincerely-held belief that certain types of minority groups are entitled under the law to fewer rights than other, non-minority groups. What's so wrong about that?! Eventually, Moore allowed that he no longer believes that there should be a religious test to hold public office, indicating that he at least possesses the ability to grasp basic concepts of American constitutional law, even if the results haven't always been there.

I think that's unfair, Panther. The people of Alabama want a genuine paedophile in power. Why should they settle for this silly Democrat?

From here in Australia where we have a genuinely independent Electoral commission where all officials and vote counters cannot even be members of a political party, the USA system simply reeks of fraud. The GOP routinely cheats and stops people voting for opponents. And when that doesnt work, they have actually been known to count the votes cast THEMSELVES behind closed doors. Serious....
