  One photograph of what exactly? You cant even tell if he touched her.

  Just look at the flowers Lizzie, just look at the flowers.

  Then why would he issue an apology, admitting he'd done it?

  Mr. Franken, who has been mentioned as a possible presidential candidate, almost immediately released an apology to the newscaster, Leeann Tweeden, who said that Mr. Franken forcibly kissed her during a rehearsal and groped her for a photo as she slept. After initially apologizing without fully acknowledging all of her accusations, he then released another lengthier, more contrite statement that contested nothing.

  I think it will be coming. He's guilty as the red handed butcher. He'll be gone by this time next week I think.

  My thoughts are generally clear. My typing, not so much.

  Hes a D at the moment, you could have video of him doing underage porn and nothing would happen.

  I heard last night that he (Franken, that is) is being investigated by the Senate Ethics committee.
  
  Isn't Senate Ethics an oxymoron?

  She accepted his apology, and claims she didn't want to ruin him, also she doesn't want him to step down...WTH?

  How about starting with admitted, proven behavior compared to unproven accusations.

  Mitch McConnell is the RINO poster boy. I think McConnell wants the democrats in control of the Senate, then he will have a excuse not to pass laws that upstart outsider Trump wants.

  tl;dr - creepily kissing a coworker during rehearsal for a scene with a kiss - bad. Creepily hitting on underage teen girls and possibly assaulting at least one - awful. The question is where are people comfortably drawing the line, knowing that once it's drawn it will be hard to undraw and will apply equally to both sides going forward.

  
  One is unproven actions with no proof, the other is admitted actions with proof. Both are harassment, in Frankens case it is actual provable unwanted touching. Even the accusers of Moore say that he knew what the word no meant.

  Why doesn't someone mention "Feel-em-Up" Joe Biden. There is video evidence of Biden groping young girls and women. Bill Clinton is strangely silent about any of these accusations. He's had multiple accusers, and a couple of them accused him of rape. Teflon Democrats.

  That's correct. I listed to an interview with Leeann on one of the Fox News shows, and that is what she said. Franken admits to the grope photo (what else can he do), but claims he doesn't remember the backstage kiss.

  It doesnt matter. He will not be ousted. All of the feministia that went after Bob Packwood will be quiet as mice because Franken bears the D of security.
