Anyone who thinks an adult telling about being molested as a child is a liar --

246. They don't say Christie is "guilty until proven innocent."

They assume his guilt because he is Republican. To claim otherwise is disingenuous. Why is being a Republican governor worse than being accused of child abuse or rape. It's the pattern that disturbs me. As I said, I see it in every single case of sexual assault.

I understand not knowing. That was my position before Dylan's letter. I never looked into the matter closely, but it seemed an ugly custody case. Dylan's own testimony changes that for me. Her letter sounds credible, and my default position--indeed my bias--is to believe a victim. At this point, I see no reason to disbelieve her. That Allen married the teenage sister of his children shows he has serious and pathological boundary issues, at the very least. He clearly decided the impact of that marriage on his children was of less importance than his own desire for a barely legal girl. That is nausea inducing and was enough to put me off his movies for good. That he would molest his own daughter doesn't seem a huge stretch after that.
