This is so stupid

Attorney is doing a decent job of seeding doubt about the latest accusers proof. It could be all BS, but it's a tight race in a deep red state, so it might be enough for the undecideds.

Agreed, but it's Alabama, he has a low bar to meet to tip people back to Moore's side. This latest allegation may blot out the sun on the Washington Post story due to the high profile of it and its yearbook evidence.

Ivanka says there is a special place in hell for those who prey on children and that she finds the accusers more believable than Moore.

Is that Will Forte playing the role of a lawyer?

i thought "wow, i didn't know that many people were familiar with the members of the B Street Band"

but then i googled the name

And a new accuser steps forth.

Wonder if her father will have that special place refurbished in fool's gold. Over budget, of course.

By the way, yet one more screw you to the middle class in their tax plan is that the individual tax cuts under the bill would expire automatically in 2025, but the cut in the corporate tax rate would be permanent.

Trump's administration lifted a ban on importing elephant trophies from Zambia and Zimbabwe.

No doubt his son has a stash of them waiting for to come over

It's bipartisan. Donkey trophies will be allowed too.

2 more came out against the Bama Mall Creeper

He’s going to score a perfect 10 by tomorrow at this rate

Moore’s campaign did not directly address the new allegations. In a statement, a campaign spokesman cast the growing number of allegations against Moore as politically motivated.


“If you are a liberal and hate Judge Moore, apparently he groped you,” the statement said. “If you are a conservative and love Judge Moore, you know these allegations are a political farce.”

Most of the women voted Trump, btw

So Donald’s deafening silence/refusal to acknowledge the question yesterday is because if he comments on Moore then he fears the floodgates will open against him. Come on ladies, don’t hold back.

Making them bad people? Naw, just normal Alabama residents.

There is a slew of special interest stuff in the tax plan, but this is galling:

Lower taxes on storing and staffing private jets
Payments by aircraft owners to companies that manage aircraft are made exempt from certain transportation taxes. Aircraft management companies perform services like storage, maintenance and fueling, and hiring and operating crew. Aircraft hangars will be cheaper to manage with the changes of the bill. For years, aircraft industry leaders have asked lawmakers to eliminate management fee taxes paid by private jet owners.

Common man needs a break on operations and upkeep to his private plane.

no, showing the idea this is a 'liberal hit job' is bullocks; it's Roy Moore liked harassing teenage girls in his 30s.

Gary Cohn is reeling...CEOs don't raise their hands when asked if they'll reinvest the money they'll get from all the corporate tax cuts they might get in this plan

it's almost like this has happened twice before and they'll simply buy back some more shares or pay out dividends! it's like this has nothing to do with demand when the money goes to the very top

This is a perpetual conservative fiction. If demand doesn't increase, there's no reason for businesses to make further CAPEX or employee investments so of course they won't reinvest the money. It's Economics 101.

Further, American corporations are already awash in record amounts of cash. If they wanted/needed to make capital or human investment they could already do so. And for those with huge amounts of cash offshore, if they wanted to, they could borrow against that cash for effectively 0%.

Even if it hadn't been tried and failed before, as it was in 2004, it would still be what it is: a fiction to put more wealth in the hands of their shareholders either by increasing the stock price through buybacks or increasing dividends.

Yep, I've been posting a few articles here showing employers that are just PERPLEXED that they can't find people to fill their $9/hr hard working jobs that still leave people in the social safety net for the government to make up the difference. But they can't raise wages!
