    That's many steps down the road, and the commune's going to have internet.

    This won't go to trial, he will settle out of court, and the actresses who squealed on him will be blacklisted.

    What's the moral difference between the gropings of Trump and Affleck?

    How can Hollywood be a moral sewer over sexual behavior and this oval office not be a sewer?

    First of all, Trump said his was locker room talk and the girls let him do it, none of the women he bragged about groping ever came forward that I know of. Affleck admitted to doing something wrong after the woman he groped accused him of it. For all of the other women accusers - on both sides - there doesn't appear to be any proof and the allegations against Trump dried up immediately after the election when their claims no longer could influence the election.

    To be fair, I watched this “groping” video and the whole thing seemed to be consenting on her part. She didn’t seem to mind one bit.

    I imagine now that it will help her to complain she is.

    Burner phones are an alternative. I tend to keep my cell turned off unless I need to call. Twitter and Facebook are not our friends - unless you are Donald Trump. Computers are useful, but leaving WI-FI on all the time when you are not using it is a bad habit.
    They are a waste of money. I wait until they come out on cable now if I watch them at all.

    My wife and kid still go to the movies. Get this - you can buy tickets online and get assigned seating. Now that might not sound like a big deal, but I live in the Land That Time Forgot, so for the people around here it is a big deal. Plus she said the new seats recline and you can put your feet up. Things have changed. But I'd still rather watch TV in my home than anywhere else.

    I wasn't really aware of Hilarie Burton until she started showing up on Lethal Weapon.

    But I will say, she's quite good in that show. She's not just a hot airhead.

    "It’s worth noting that the women in the clip voluntarily played this game for a comedy bit, and is not equatable with Weinstein’s actions (despite what some on social media have insinuated"

    Nothing beats your own bed, your own HD Big Screen, your own remote, your own popcorn, and your own wife.
    In reverse order - of course. :)

    WASH POST: Used media like bludgeon to keep victims in line...

    One technique: Supplying information that would drag an accuser’s name through the mud.

    The Italian actress Ambra Battilana Gutierrez found that out when she filed a sexual assault complaint against Weinstein in 2015.

    “Details about Gutierrez’s past began to appear in the tabloids,” the New Yorker reported Tuesday in its exposé of Weinstein’s sexual misbehavior.

    The fix has been in for decades. Why did the MSM stop procuring and covering up for him now?

    I've seen that before. I'm worried about what goes through the mind of progressives.
