FULL TITLE: Planned Parenthood CEO Cecile Richards on Senator Who Groped a Woman: “Al Franken is a Leader for Women”
U.S. Senator Al Franken is in hot water for forcibly kissed a woman and later groping her as she slept during a USO trip in 2006. Franken, who was not a senator at the time, issued an apology statement.
On Thursday, a woman named Leeann Tweeden accused Franken of forcibly kissing her and later groping her while she was asleep during a 2006 tour to entertain U.S. troops, the BBC reports. Tweeden also produced a photo of Franken smiling as he appeared to be groping her breasts while she was asleep. Franken was a comedian at the time and did not enter politics until two years later.
“You knew exactly what you were doing,” Tweeden wrote in an article about Franken. “You forcibly kissed me without my consent, grabbed my breasts while I was sleeping and had someone take a photo of you doing it, knowing I would see it later, and be ashamed.”
Franken apologized after the story broke Thursday, but he also said he does not remember “aggressively” kissing Tweeden.
“As to the photo, it was clearly intended to be funny but wasn’t. I shouldn’t have done it,” he said. “… I send my sincerest apologies to Leeann.”
Ironically, the Planned Parenthood abortion business, which asserts itself as the leading organization representing women, absolutely loves Al Franken. Planned Parenthood abortion company CEO Cecile Richards heaped Praise on Franken previously saying that not only would you vote for women’s interest but he was a leader for women.
“I’m so happy to be in Minnesota today on behalf of Sen. Al Franken today and to make sure he goes back to the United States Senate,” Richards says in a campaign video. “Since Al Franken came to Washington, DC, he’s been an extraordinary champion for women and for Planned Parenthood.”
“Al Franken is not just a vote for women, he’s a leader for women,” the abortion giant’s president said.
Following his re-election, Richards said in a statement: “Senator Al Franken has been a strong supporter and advocate for women’s health and women’s rights. We look forward to working with him on important issues, such as health care reform and women’s access to reproductive health care.”
Franken raised more than $81,500 from feminist abortion rights groups for his Senate campaign, “making him the highest recipient of such cash of any congressional candidate.”
SIGN THE PETITION! Congress Must De-Fund Planned Parenthood Immediately
Planned Parenthood profusely thanked Franken during a rally he appeared at jointly with the abortion giant.
It should come as no shock that the abortion company that has covered up statutory rape, that has been found to be doing abortions on women victimized by sex trafficking, and that routinely kills and injures women and abortions Love’s a politician who Smiles as he gropes women.
Planned Parenthood calling itself a pro-woman organization or a group that cares about women’s rights is becoming more and more of a joke. Anyone who still believes the Planned Parenthood abortion business is all about women needs to realize that’s just a farce.
“He lets us be irresponsible and helps us kill babies, so he can commit as many sex assaults as he wants.”
To Democrats, the only crime is not being one. They’re doing everything they can to excuse slimy behavior only because a fellow abortion-supporting liberal did it.
Once again, as with The Bent One, any form of sexual harassment/assault/abuse is just fine with FemiNazis as long as the abusers vote for unfettered barbaric abortion.
It’s all about being able to kill their babies in the womb.
It’s all that they care about.
These people really stand for nothing whatsoever except ultimately, the accumulation of power.
Once again, as with The Bent One, any form of sexual harassment/assault/abuse is just fine with FemiNazis as long as the abusers vote for unfettered barbaric abortion.
You nailed it!
Abortion Uber Alles.
Leading the pack on sexual assault with Creepy Uncle Joe close behind.
I note how well Cecile Richards stands up for women and women’s rights. All she cares about is a pro-abortion vote. There is no concern in her about the women making the accusations. She only cares about making sure Al Franken stays in the senate and that a Republican does not replace him.
As the sex escapades of staunch liberals unfold, we now see that a male expounding on a woman’s right to an abortion means something far different to him.....it means he does not have to shoulder his responsibility to the infant.
I can almost hear the “impartial” Candy Crowley or Wolf Blitzer interviewing the Clintons: “After he got lubed by Monica Lewinsky in the Oval Office, then-pres Clinton handily survived b/c of his awesome political survival skills and his political effectiveness...b/c of the citizenry’s distaste for “ evil Republican” who repeatedly overreached...... and b/c Clinton brought the US peace and prosperity by protecting a woman’s right to abortion”
The genital-sniffing Planned Parenthood abortion worshippers who populate the Dem party are crazy over the Clintons.... God only knows what blood and gore Hillary will throw the genital-sniffing rubbermaids to assure them “aggression over the unborn” will continue...and is her prime interest.
It is the credo of the Democrat Party that vote-crazed Dem pols must keep the snarling abortion worshippers at bay by upping the political ante every election cycle.
Hillary would endorse post-birth abortions as the true measure of her abortion worship........if it means votes for Democrats.
