Debbie Wesson Gibson, first met Roy Moore when he came to speak at her high school civics class in 1981. After the class Moore then a 34 year old assistant district attorney asked the then a 17 year old student out on a series of dates. Gibson said she sought her mother's approval to see Moore romantically and got her enthusiastic blessings. The relationship which Gibson says lead to kissing, but no further sexual contact , petered out after two or three months and Gibson went away to college. She and Moore . Gibson says , were on good terms and kept in touch over the years , even exchanging Christmas cards. "Looking back, I'm glad nothing bad happened," Gibson told the Post last month. "As a mother of daughters, I realize that our age difference at the time made our dating inappropriate."

Despite having a different outlook on the situation as an adult, Gibson, a registered republican, didn't appear to harbor any resentment towards Moore for their relationship decades ago. She recalled to the Post that he played his guitar and read poetry he had written. Hearing Moore's pursuit of other younger women irked Gibson, and when she shared her story of what was an open, public relationship at the time, Moore's blanket disavowal of their romance angered her. "He called me a liar." Gibson said. "
Roy Moore made an egregious mistake to attack that one thing-my integrity."

Gibson provided the graduation card which she says was given to her by Roy Moore and signed simply Roy along with notes in her scrapbook. One inscription in her scrapbook pertained to planning a guess list for her graduation and above her parents names was Roy Moore's name. The signature Roy on her card looks just like the signature Roy on Beverly Young Nelson's signature year to me.

I apologize for not providing downloads that would provide reference sites for you to view. The truth is, I simply don't know how to accomplish that since all the pages that I attempt to save are saved in HTML on my computer. HTML is an extension not accepted by DP. But everything I have elaborated on above is word for word from the online post article. I am offering this information and other post I have made so that the voters in Alabama can have all the facts and testimony pertinent in this matter, as their decision is not one they should enter into without fully knowing this story. The person they choose will represent their state to the United States of America. That's serious, and deserves due diligence.

Let me ask you a question. I cannot vote for Moore and if the allegations against him are true he should be facing replacement if he wins. But if you are a Alabama voter and you favor Trump/GOP policies over that of the Democrats and you understand that if Jones wins the election, it might well impede or prevent GOP legislation from being enacted, what do you do?

Vote for anyone except the child molester.

Surely at some point basic human decency and morals have to trump petty political slap-fights. Surely at some point keeping child molesters out of extremely powerful positions has to come before party affiliation and extend into general human charity.

And besides that, ya know what? It's Alabama. It's not going to suddenly turn into SoCal because one Republican lost one election. And beyond that, the GOP has a majority in both the House and Senate. Roy Moore not being a Congressman is not going to change that fact.

Especially in light of the fact that it makes no damn difference in terms of the GOP's ability to get things done (they're ****ing that up all on their own), there is no possible justification for voting for a child molester.

one less republican in the senate could have major repercussions given a couple of the GOP female senators have RINO proclivities and McCain has a hard on for Trump and tends to vote out of spite.

sorry, given how many scumbags there are in politics, voting against one's legislative interests is not something I'd support

I suspect your definition of the right thing is very different from mine. and I see it as a far bigger picture than a vote for someone that is accused of being a sleaze bag. its about what sort of laws do I want or not want passed. Not who occupies one senate seat in a state where I have no say

I imagine than that your idea of a representative government is different than mine. We vote for people to represent us. Sleaze balls need not apply. Also, you do not recognize the need for collaboration in making laws for the entire country? Your majority is quite narrow in the Senate....maybe your guys need to suggest better laws that might attract votes from both sides. Just maybe the laws YOU want are not the greatest for everyone. Maybe that's how representative government works.

There isn't really much variation in people's understand of the definition of the right thing. Just lots of reasons they talk themselves out of it sometimes. IMO.

exactly, if the GOP had 58 or 57 Senators I'd be less likely to hope Moore would win

Ya know, I've always put my personal beliefs first. If I vote it's for the Liberal Party candidate but I have no problem sitting it out if I don't like the candidate or something the party is doing. This idea that you should vote for someone you don't like because they're in the right party is, frankly, insulting to individual choice. Lockstep comes to mind, and toe the party line.

I think you are missing the point. there are two competing agendas right now. Dems and GOP. I don't agree with all the GOP positions nor do I oppose all the Dem positions But the stuff that matters MOST to me, the GOP is far better than the Dems. I put that ahead of the "party" and ahead of individual politicians.

You'd vote for Moore? Say you knew for a fact that he was guilty and as soon as he was elected he'd go down to an Ethics Committee investigation, would you vote for him?

I do not understand how it could be in any truly patriotic American's interests to give power to abusers.

It's truly sad that we've fallen to a level where this is even open to debate.

Let me ask you a question, if I bought a child into the room and said that if you molest this child what every laws and regulations you want passed or repealed will happen, would you molest the child?

Would you trust him with YOUR child?
Attitudes like his are part of the reason we are talking about the morality in our elected leaders, “hold your nose and vote.”
 
This is interesting. Democrats getting after Moore about alleged molestation, but they don't have any problems at all voting for the murder of the innocent unborn.

A wise Man once said, "What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world but loses his soul?"

It's time for y'all to remember that the cost of sacrificing one's honor and integrity for the sake of temporal power carries a cost far higher than most people realize.

And that's what every voter has to do. Moore might have dated teens at one time, but there is no indicate that he did anything illegal. Doug Jones was just called out for lying by Politifact, so he's not squeaky clean, himself.

Therefore, the best thing to do is to vote for the candidate that best represents your beliefs and interests.

that's a ridiculous analogy

you democrats act as if your candidates are squeaky clean. You all were willing to vote for Obama over Romney, Clinton over Bush and Dole. you really have no room to talk

We don't act as if they're squeaky-clean...but they are generally cleaner. Romney and Obama were both generally clean (as far as Washington goes), so between him and Obama, it really was a choice of whose policy. Clinton was certainly cleaner than either Bush or Dole - or do you not remember Iran-Contra? And when it came to McCain, do you not remember the Keating Five?

Yes, the Dems are generally cleaner - but we're far from perfect, as Conyers and Franken have both just proved. That being said, at least we Dems reject such people (just as we rejected Edwards for president after his mistress was exposed)...whereas y'all, well, y'all are defending an alleged child molester for the Senate and an admitted sexual abuser as president.

No sir, y'all got ZERO room to talk.

I have plenty of room to talk. Claiming Democrats are generally cleaner is partisan hackery. There is no evidence Moore broke LAWS

also its funny watching those who whine about the fat cat rich voting for so many democrats who have become RICH through public office.
 
Unfortunately, none of it matters. There are very few things in this world that are worse than a pervert. Unfortunately, liberals are worse. I would gladly accept a pervert candidate over a liberal one.

I was unaware that Obama was accused of sexual abuse and dated (or tried to) girls in their teens when he was in his thirties. I didn't vote for Clinton either time, so you don't need to go there.

Never said that, he admitted to breaking the law (not merely engaging what I would call uncouth behavior) by using narcotics. Now I don't have a big hard on for people who use drugs-even illegal ones but the fact remains, Obama admitted to what was at the time a felony and I suspect his pharmaceutical experimentation was more than a one or two time thing based on what people who knew him at Columbia etc said
