The senate race for Alabama is this coming Tuesday and the citizens of that great state must decide who will represent them. Will it be an alleged sexual predator or a Chuck Schumer puppet with San Franciscan values? What a conundrum.
The basic problem for Alabamians is deciding whether or not the accusations leveled against Roy Moore are true. One must consider the fact that no sexual transgressions have been leveled at the judge for over 30 years, a feat most sexual predators cannot overcome. We only have to look to the likes of Bill Clinton, Ted Kennedy, Al Franken and John Conyers to determine this kind of conduct is an ongoing character trait. A case in point, just recently a 70 year old man was convicted for possessing child pornography. This sickness doesn’t end overnight or with age.
Second, was it against the law for a grown man to date a 14 year old girl in the state of Alabama in the 1970’s? Apparently not. As a matter of fact, the law allowed for a 14 year old girl to marry. This stood until 2003 when the age was changed to 16.
What was acceptable then is reprehensible now. I remember watching Fiddler on the Roof and how the father dealt with his teenage daughter’s proposed marriage to a man that was older than he. This kind of arrangement was common prior to the 20th century. Times change and we should keep that in perspective.
In the meantime, Alabama has a decision to make. Were I a citizen, I would vote for Judge Roy Moore. This man believes in the Constitution of the United States and the redemptive qualities of Christianity. I cannot say the same of his opponent, Doug Jones or anyone who votes Democrat these days.
