Maybe they had that one prepared for bad times like those. But even if that is so and even if the kissing part were a lie. Does not change the fact that Franken definitely posed for a very inappropriate and potentially demeaning photograph and that still is a grave misbehaviour. Whether he actually touched her or not doesn't matter too much, it's demeaning behaviour either way. Not quite Roy Moore child molestation bad, but bad nonetheless.

Is it groping if you don't make contact? This is what is wrong with this forum, and politics in general in this country.

Agreed. There's a lot of moral cowardice on display here and it is indeed a microcosm of the country in general. As I said earlier, the Franken allegation surprised and disappointed me. I see absolutely zero indication that this is manufactured and there's photographic evidence to back it up. GMDino won't even respond to a pointed question about whether he believes the women who have accused Bill Clinton of raping them. Lots of moral cowardice to be sure.

RE: Al Franken Accused of Sexual Assault - Bengalzona - 11-17-2017 Here's the thing that I don't get. Why didn't he just draw a penis on her forehead with a marker, like the other junior high kids?

Disappointed me as well, but hard to be surprised at this point. While I don't think its manufactured in the sense that it probably happened (gross mouth kiss thing); I do think the timing of a CD with this image showing up on her doorstep is quite fortuitous for some. She still has all the right and responsibility to go public with the story, but it seems like a grand distraction to much more egregious actions of others. Call me crazy, but I don't think groping someone is best done in front of a camera with a smile on your face. I take the picture as a terrible joke in front of the troops. The optics are sub-optimal in the current climate. RE: Al Franken Accused of Sexual Assault - ballsofsteel - 11-17-2017 (11-17-2017, 11:50 AM)Sociopathicsteelerfan Wrote: Agreed.

Lots of moral cowardice to be sure.Agree, there is a lot of fact cowardice going on here by a group of Righteous Pin heads, aka Mike Pence clones. "there's photographic evidence to back it up" The only photographic evidence is of Franken appearing to put his hands on her breast which as another poster said, " posed for a very inappropriate and potentially demeaning photograph" Which was a bad joke. Big F'n deal. Franken wasn't hiding anything and freely admitted it. Then apologized. The whole putting his tongue down her throat in the dressing room is all her account of what he supposedly did. She will be well compensated for her humiliation. Believe what you want if it makes you feel good but you should watch who you are calling cowards. Don't make crap up like your idol Drumph and the DailyWire.

Well he already admitted that he fake apologized for his jokes about women when he ran for the Senate, but this is a real apology I guess.

Apparently if you grope a woman and force her to kiss you it's "Ok" if you say you're sorry and don't respect a man that would do such things.

Franken himself called for it. But just a day ago, when it came out that more than $15 million had been paid off in settlements to women for sexual harassment and other charges by Congress, there was a lot of question about, should Congress really be in charge of investigating itself? Can we really? RE: Al Franken Accused of Sexual Assault - michaelsean - 11-20-2017 (11-20-2017, 05:27 PM)bfine32 Wrote: Ut Oh: That jokester.

How many accused apologize, have it accepted by their accuser and agree that they should be investigated? Seriously. How many? The answer is only one more than time than Trump has accepted blame for something.
