Moore says it's not over, they're looking at the recount rules, and God is always in charge.
Now he's quoting scripture.
Says it's not over.
(Evidently they're hoping the final vote count falls within 1/2% to trigger a recount. Even Fox News says there's "no way" it will be within 1/2%.)

He will almost certainly never publicly concede.

I'm curious how that works when one says this is all micromanaged by God, but you lose. So why did God choose your opponent over you, Roy?
And is Moore really trying to tell us that God chose to interject some drama by having him win only after a recount rather than having him win in a landslide? Because he was plainly saying tonight that the recount was God's plan.

It’s amazing how my expectations have been set so low over the past year that my faith in humanity can be buoyed by people crossing what has got to be one of the lowest conceivable bars of basic human decency: “don’t put the pedophiles in charge.”

In a land where a pathological lying, racist, sexual predator grifter gets the oval office via russian propaganda bots, racist vote suppression, and fbi malfeasance, while losing the popular vote by 3,000,000+ votes.

There's no Trump tax bill topic?
It seems Trump is trying to rush through his greed-based tax bill before Jones has a chance to vote on it. Am I right?

These people are idiots. And the Constitution very explicitly contradicts their position.
Article VI, Section 3 provides:
3: The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States.
So you don't need to take an oath at all; an affirmation will do. And religious tests for office are specifically banned.

John Quincy Adams was not sworn on a Bible, but on a book of laws.
In fact, there's no evidence that any of the presidents from John Adams to John Tyler were sworn in on a Bible.

Did Roy tell that to his spokesman? Wow!
Quote: |
Hawaii Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, the first Hindu to join either chamber of Congress, used the sacred text from her faith in a ceremonial swearing-in conducted by Speaker of the House John Boehner (R-Ohio).
“I chose to take the oath of office with my personal copy of the Bhagavad-Gita because its teachings have inspired me to strive to be a servant-leader, dedicating my life in the service of others and to my country,” said Gabbard, who served in the Iraq War, after the swearing-in. “My Gita has been a tremendous source of inner peace and strength through many tough challenges in life, including being in the midst of death and turmoil while serving our country in the Middle East.” |

I'm beginning to see why you guys lose yourselves in something as innocuous as women's college hoops. This shit has broken me. If Moore had won and we had to go through that horror show for months, on top of the other horror show... I might have set the DVR to record fucking cornhole matches.

I feel you. Tuesday morning, I felt as hopeless about this country as I have at any time since the November election.
