 I believe this is a bug in Wordpress, or at least there has to be a way
 around it.

 It is impossible for me to grant a user the ability to moderate all
 comments (not just ones they authored).

 I tested this by granting a user every ability available in the editor
 role, however they could still only moderate comments on their own posts.

 I need to grant certain users to moderate all comments regardless of the
 author without granting them full admin rights.

 I certainly granted them the moderate and moderate_comments abilities
 (like I said even if I granted a role full abilities and they still
 couldn't moderate the comments.)
