Ohio judge, trying to defend Franken, brags of sleeping with 50 women

Bill O’Neill isn’t just anybody; he’s a sitting justice on the Ohio Supreme Court. And he wants to be the governor of the Buckeye State.

And today on Facebook, he made a good argument for why, in the wake of sexual misconduct allegations in which people are finally listening to what women have to say, it’s a good time for men to listen more and talk less.

O’Neill acknowledged to the Cleveland Plain Dealer that he wrote the post in defense of Sen. Al Franken, but he also defended Alabama U.S. Senate candidate Roy Moore.

” Roy Moore apparently seems to be a challenged individual when it comes to morality,” O’Neill said. “I think that’s very, very clear. He’s been convicted of nothing and he’s never had the opportunity to defend himself and that violates due process in America. The media is about to determine the election of a United States Senate campaign.”

He also acknowledged his number of 50 women might not be accurate.

O’Neill’s Democratic rivals for governor called on him to resign.
