even has a picture in there grabbing the breasts of the woman on the USO tour while she was sleeping.

he needs to resign and step down.

Why is this whole thing starting to remind me more and more of the Salem Witch Trials?

The difference of course is that in many of these situations there is a valid complaint to be made, but the tone of the situation seems to be devolving into hysteria.

Al Franken WAS one of my favorite Senators.

Yeah..mine too..but he's got to go..that picture..is damning...what a perv..he groped her while she was sleeping??

Woman accuses Al Franken of kissing, groping her without consent

I'm the biggest prude here according to some, but I don't see what he did as being in the same class as what Moore was accused of, or Weinstein. Those things were for personal sexual pleasure. Franken's behavior was more in the Trump class. He obviously thought the pic was funny, which it wasn't, but giving a woman a feel over a kevlar vest? C'mon, that's not sexual--that's disrespectful, rude and ticks all the boxes of a guy who is low class and tasteless. Predators don't take pictures.
So go ahead and kick him out if low class and tasteless is the bar. It doesn't matter his politics.
I was hoping the groping list of the legislators wasn't going to be made public, but I guess we're going to hear about all of them/

You must not have read her account of the incident.
There was a lot more going on than just the picture.

I read the link I found since the OP didn't provide one. He forced a kiss that he insisted on rehearsing and she was demurring on. Maybe he was horny or maybe he was just insistent on rehearsing it; I'm not an actor, I don't know why you would or wouldn't.
That's all I read about.

i am the OP - i listed it and showed the pic a few posts later.

Well, it has been fun watching all the partisan hacks defending Moore for the last week show their true hypocritical selves

We have women who have confirmed Trump did exactly what he claimed he did.

You are willfully refusing to absorb this fact.

And 11 have said it never happened:

Of the 11 (contestants) who said they don’t remember Trump coming into the changing room, some said it was possible that it happened while they weren’t in the room or that they didn’t notice. But most were dubious or dismissed the possibility out of hand.

Allison Bowman, former Miss Wisconsin Teen USA, cast doubt on whether it happened. "These were teenage girls," Bowman said. "If anything inappropriate had gone on, the gossip would have flown."

The allegations about Donald Trump and Miss Teen contestants

You need to explore news other than far-left outlets,

It's amazing how you tards openly confess to saying Trump is a liar when it is convenient to you without your heads exploding from cognitive dissonance.

And now you want to disbelieve accusers when it is convenient to you.


In this case, Trump did exactly what he said he did. There are women who confirmed his admission was fact.

Then, why did 11, 11, women say it never happened? And why tdo you keep bringing up Trump?

Tu Quoque fallacy.

An allegory:

Trump claims he shot someone on Fifth Avenue. The victim tells the world it's true.

Someone who wasn't there said Trump didn't shoot anyone, and THAT is who you believe!

Amazing.

You have lost it pal... Trump never claimed to having shot someone on 5th Avenue.

Please look up the word allegory, dumbass.

 

[Mac1958]

Sure, no problem.
Once the same applies to ALL that get's caught red-handed.
However, what we see instead are rightwingers overly enthusiastic and gleeful to report when Democrats do it, but totally defensive and denying when Republicans do it.
You people are uncanny.
And that's putting it in the nicest terms possible.

I haven't read through the thread, but I'm willing to wager not one liberal will defend this.

Keep 'em coming.

The Lefties are acting just like the Righties do.

Deflect, spin, attack.

The two ends are very similar in their behaviors.

Yearbook with Roy Moore's alleged handwriting.

Dems: He's a child molestor definitely!!!! Proof right there!!!

Picture of Al Franken groping a woman.

Dems: Umm... well... Roy Moore framed him!!!!

 

[ColonelAngus]

He shouldn’t be forced to do anything.

He should willingly do it and Tweeden should file a sexual assault report.

If she feels it was sexual assault, absolutely.

Yes, it’s in an article she wrote that was published today.

Unfortunately, we have a President who BRAGGED on the air, to millions of listeners and viewers, that he busted into women's dressing rooms to try to catch them naked.

This was not a fantasy. This was not locker room talk. This was not a hypothetical.

He actually did this, as was confirmed by some of those women, including one who was underaged.

He bragged about his predatory behavior. In an on-air broadcast with a fellow pervert.

He also bragged about abusing his celebrity and molesting women in the most vulgar way possible.

The pseudocons didn't care, and still don't.

They have set the gold standard along with the creep they hired to run our country, hilariously claiming he will make America great again.

no he didn't say that.

Sounds like Franken was going for some lovin’ and got denied. Can’t say I blame him for the persuit, have you seen this girl?! But wildly inappropriate to go in for the kiss as hot as he did. I think he owes her a public apology. I don’t think this rises to the level of destroying his career in the senate. Guys are going to make moves on girls, it’s nature, there is a line between inappropriate and criminal. Franken was inappropriate in my opinion and I do feel bad that it effected this women like it did. Hope he makes things right and apologies

except now people are going to dig until pretty much he was born and look for / create a pattern of behavior. this is a kiss of death right now.

 

[easyt65]

Before Al Franken was a senator he was a writer on Saturday Night Live. Franken proposed this “joke” for a SNL skit about raping CBS reporter Lesley Stahl

'Lie, Deny, JUSTFY...' - standard snowflake / Democrat Party ops.

"You forcibly kissed me without my consent, grabbed my breasts while I was sleeping..."

What is described here is not 'offensive'...it is not 'insulting'... It is not a 'skit' ... it was not a 'joke'.

What was described here is 'SEXUAL ASSAULT' ... it is a 'CRIME' .

Attempting to belittle or justify what Franken did to this woman is 'offensive'... it is ' insulting' ... it is 'enabling'.

Claiming it is ok for Liberal Politicians to sexually assault a woman BEFORE they officially become an elected Democratic Party Representative is hypocritical BS from Democrats / snowflakes engaging in hypocritical defense of their criminal politicians.

But hey, as Dan Rather said about Bill Clinton's rape of Juanita Broaddrick, 'It was a long time ago. time to forget it and move on.'

 

[PredFan]

Nothing will happen to him, he’s a Democrat and above any law.

 

[MarkDuffy]

LOL, 17 pages already

republicans think they are having a good day finally

 

[Zander]

Franken should be subjected to the same rush to judgement that Moore received. Right?

Despite being in the public eye for the last 30 years or so, he is now branded a sexual predator over a photo? See how fucking stupid we are?

Meanwhile, we have 3 carrier groups off the coast of North Korea, multiple undeclared wars being fought, a GINORMOUS bond, real estate, and stock bubble about to burst...BUT....

Please don't let that distract you from Creepy Al Franken or Judge Moore!! That's the shit that really matters...

oh wait...

SQUIRREL!!!!!

 

[OldLady]

You make it sound like that is the only thing which occurred there. That's total bullshit.

That's the same kind of bogus smear bullshit as someone showing a photograph of a celebrity or politician with a person who later turned out to be a predator, with the implication that celebrity or politician was complicit.

It never occurs to the dipshits to find out if there is a photo of someone on THEIR team with the same predator.

It's not just a photo of her with the predator, it's a photo of the predator caught in the act.

Just as there is audio of a predator bragging of his predation, with confirmation by his victims.

Your point?

And you are suffering from a comprehension failure. Visiting Epstein's island has been accepted by dipshits as evidence of participating in pedophilia. It's bullshit. Just like posting a photo of someone with another person later found out to be heinous, trying to imply that person is also heinous by association.

I've heard guys my entire life bragging about their sexual exploits... your point? There's a guy that hangs out in my buddy's sports pub, if I believed him, he's getting laid 24/7, 365.

I'm pretty sure I remember him admitting it somewhere--not to "lurk," of course, but as the head of the operation just to "check on things." Right, Donald.
But anyway, I don't think he's ever denied the dressing room thing.

unfortunately this is very true also.

we are one jacked up country.

It is time for a thorough scrubbing.

From top to bottom, from the Left to the Right.

who used that 15 million slush fund? Let's get those names.

We don't need to "rush to judgment" because Franken already admitted it and apologized.
Unlike Moore.
