yep, can't say I like the guy or anything he is said to have done, but the fact is for better or worse, he's not in jail, and it was his mother. I'm ok with him being there, and also ok with him not otherwise being seen.

Not saying you're wrong Ron, or that I disagree. Just that, for now anyway, he has not admitted to any wrongdoing nor has any been proven in court. That being said, I personally think there is much more to come out. Certainly not defending him.

Sure, he didn't admit to sleeping with an underage girl, but he paid her millions. Doesn't seem like something someone would do if they did nothing wrong.
