homersapien 11,600 Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Lindsey Graham is full of it. He's refuting arguments that aren't being made. Very disingenuous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing in all that stuff he grandstaded about that seemed to be an actual valid point, sexually assaulting women for two years and stopping. Sexual offenders usually don’t stop until their dead. That’s an interesting point in that whole speech. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitanTiger 20,568 Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 "Weak stomach?" Good Lord, man. Just fess up - you frequently drank enough to blow chunks. It by itself doesn't mean the allegations are true, but "I have a weak stomach" isn't an answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but I think it more applies to predators, not guys who just think they're getting it on with slutty girls who really want it. Goes to my contention of what attitudes were back then about party girls and informed consent when it comes to being too drunk to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On 9/19/2018 at 7:31 PM, AUDub said: I mean, it’s the FBI. They would bring a lot of tools to an investigation of this alleged incident, including skilled agents with experience interviewing sex crime victims and reluctant witnesses. And the bureau would be happy to investigate, but it can only do so if the White House asks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not necessarily regarding the drinking (assuming he actually stopped after two years). But no one has suggested he was a serial rapist as Graham implied.
