Fried Brown on Both Sides

So the campaign equivalent of a daisy-cutter bomb was dropped on the Roy Moore campaign yesterdiddy. There are certain things we don’t know, and certain other things are stinking obvious. Let us begin with what we don’t know. The allegations have been made, and Moore hotly denies them, calling them defamation. So, not having had …
