At what point will partisans realize that sexual misconduct is not a political issue?

[LoneLaugher]

Sexual misconduct is different than trying to **** a child

Mohammad fucked a child, why do you liberals love Moooslims?

Is that why you support Moore? Because Muslims?

Deflection noted.
.

Wait. What? Whose deflection did you note here?

 

[jillian]

While I do realize that many people view pretty much everything through a partisan political lens, watching the ends of the spectrum trade gotchas with each other on all these stories coming out is getting funny.

Do you think we are capable of separating the topic of sexual misconduct from partisan politics?

Are there any other topics that we're capable of separating from partisan politics?

Or is everything going to remain a simplistic Left vs. Right slap fight?
.

As long as a scandal, any scandal, no matter how big or small, can be used as a bludgeon to gain political points and embarrass or destroy a political opponent, everything will remain a political issue.

yes, mick. that's true. on the other hand when someone is an admitted sexual predator, they shouldn't be elected president.

Uh-huh, get used to it Mac; simple minded games appeal to simple minded people, not to mention sex sells, combine the two and you have the perfect pastime for partisan proles.

Look on the bright side, while all the partisan droids are busy squawking about who is touching whose naughty parts it'll keep them somewhat distracted from actively seeking to make life for the rest of us more difficult.

"What I may call the messages of Brave New World, but it is possible to make people contented with their servitude. I think this can be done. I think it has been done in the past. I think it could be done even more effectively now because you can provide them with bread and circuses and you can provide them with endless amounts of distractions and propaganda." -- Aldous Huxley, A Brave New World

Of course the Left claims the high ground when it comes to feminism and sexism. Much like the right claims the high ground on morality and religion. So, when they are caught breaking bad on their sacred cows, they deserve condemnation.

This is a topic in which both sides' sacred cows intersect, but neither appears to recognize that.
.

really? is Anthony Weiner still in congress?

did Dems vote for an admitted sexual predator for president?

did Dems put Clarence Thomas on the Supreme Court?

are Dems pushing a child molester for the Senate?

when our own is no longer in office and all of the above were repub picks, we look at them and laugh when they whine and say al franked should resign because of a dumbass photo.

Photo PLUS testimony from the woman he was inappropriate with.

Photo PLUS testimony from the woman he was inappropriate with.

The woman who was playing grabass the whole trip, but now wants to dress up like a school Marm.

You know, as opposed to this?

That's right, you're a leftist. You believe that because a woman is attractive, she's fair game for any pervert.

We can always count on Silly Jilly (our favorite LWNJ partisan hack) to think her side is blameless.

No, I think that when a woman dresses like a stripper, sells her sexuality, and acts like drunken frat girl on a USO tour, I just don't take her terribly seriously when she dresses like a school marm 10 years later and tells us that Al Franken made her feel icky.

Franken can make any girl feel icky. He has the face of a catfish. And why is an anti-Semite like you sticking up for him, just because he's a leftist?

I'm not anti-semitic, I'm anti-Zionist.

Sorry you are too dumb to realize the difference.

My problem with Franken is my same problem with Trump. He's a celebrity playing a politician- badly.

But THIS WOMAN saying she was sexually harassed is just silly.

Seriously, cover yourself woman, you'll catch cold!

Waaahhhhh.... Al Franken treated me like a cheap ho 10 years ago when I played a cheap ho!

Yeah, we know how leftists hate good looking women. So what did you want her to do, dress up in a bikini until she's 70 years old? When people age they change...........well most do. When I was younger I used to walk around in tight sleeveless teeshirts all summer long. But of course because of weight lifting and exercises, I could do that. Now I don't even like to tuck my shirt in my pants. People change.

Of course it's used as a political issue. That's the whole point of the thread, and my point has been demonstrated all the way through.

"Especially by the Left"? That would be the right wing perspective, obviously. The other guys are always worse, always.

Sexual misconduct is made a political issue. It stands on its own when it's happening, then it's turned even worse by politics. The act itself is not some partisan behavior.

If you disagree that false sex accusations are a tactic of a left you must not be very factually oriented.

They want to make "Yes still means no" affirmative consent bullshit a law so that any man can be accused of rape at any time. They also often claim that anything can be considered a rape - for the same reason, just read the timeless masterpiece of feminist stupidity:

PIV is always rape, ok?

(PIV stands for penis in vagina). You always seem to default to the position that everything and every side is the same. Well, I am here to tell you, the left simply is terrible on this issue. Western civilization is also much superior to gay executing savages. Your position is stupid.

My position is the behaviors of the Left and the Right are very similar. Not their positions, their behaviors. And that's borne out in here every minute.

Sexual misconduct in itself is not a partisan political act. It is made one by partisans, because that's what they do.

Yes, both sides want to win, and use tactics necessary to do so. The tactics are of course very dirty, and you may oppose to that - but at the end of the day, they work.

Before the right just took a beating and let America slide more and more left every year, as is evident from the size of the government:

Today, they have finally adopted the tactic of putting winning before anything else - the tactic that works and worked very well for the left. All the decency and whatever else counted for jackshit.

You and many other posters here are arguing a point I didn't make. And of course, the arguments in this thread have illustrated my point.

My actual point, if it matters, is that sexual misconduct is not in itself a partisan act. But it becomes politicized by partisans.

Because partisans will jump at every chance to partisan.

Wow, Ray, that was a diversion.

No, I don't want to see her in a bikini now that gravity and wrinkles have set in.

The point I was making, which you don't seem to get, is that she made a living being a sex object back in the day. She wasn't on that USO Tour because they wanted to listen to her radio voice, she was on that USO tour because she looked hot in a bikini. And now she wants to complain, "Al Franken remotely treated me as a sex object when I made my living as a sex object!!!"

Really? Really.

Well, I'm not. So we settled that, didn't we.

I'm opposed to criminal human-rights violating regime that calls itself Israel, but that's another issue.

Saying "Sexual Misconduct is made a political issue" is kind of like saying 'Graft is made a political issue".

It's kind of the most retarded thing you've said yet.

Dude, I can't help it if you say retarded things.

Of course, sexual misconduct is going to be made a political issue. It says a lot about the person's character.

Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

Poor little Mac, wanting everyone to take him Oh, so seriously!
