Reminds me of Richard Gere kissing that Bollywood co-star of his. Quite the flap...at least in India. Didn't seem to phase the USA much.

Now you are talking like Judge Moore and his supporters. We have a picture of Al Franken standing over that lady leering with his hands hovering over her breasts. To quote your fave, Hillary, "Well, I would say that everyone should be believed at first until they are disbelieved based on evidence."

I think this may be the only thing I agree with Hillary on, because this may be old-fashioned of me to say, but I was brought up to respect, cherish, support and protect women, even though many or most are strong enough to stand alone and stand up for themselves. To dismiss a woman's claims as a political set up is a little too convenient if the accused is someone you are politically aligned with.

Anyway, I think all sorts of women are coming forward, because all of the sudden they feel empowered and that they are being taken seriously for once. They feel that for the first time society is on their side. That should not be dismissed, but encouraged. We have a once in a generation opportunity to catapult women's rights up another very big notch. We shouldn't lose the opportunity.
