So why do the dems pressure Conyers and not Franken to quit?

Black lawmakers wonder why Conyers has to go — but not Franken

I suspect it's more about senate deference but still...... Time to go Al.

Well, it IS the party of the KKK.

From what little I've followed I suspect the difference is that Conyers inappropriate actions took place while he was serving in congress.

The Dims are racists. No other explanation.

Probably because they know they have a safe seat in Detroit, in Minnesota maybe not so much.

Franken has more influence.

Neither did Roy Moore. LOL (though teenagers are a new low .. since Hassert)

Once again Democrats go after blacks while giving whitey a free pass.

Conyers shouldn't resign until Joe Barton resigns.

I have been following the Roy Moore story even less than Franken and Conyers. Which is to say, not at all. From headlines I see of threads I know he's running for election, didn't know he's being asked to resign. If it is something he did before holding his office my view is to let the voters settle the matter.

Update: Conyers shouldn't resign until Joe Barton and Blake Farenthold resign.
