A woman says Sen. Al Franken inappropriately touched her in 2010, telling CNN that he grabbed her buttocks while taking a photo at the Minnesota State Fair.
It is the first allegation of improper touching by Franken, who is a Democrat, while he was in office. It comes just days after Leeann Tweeden, a local radio news anchor in California, said that Franken forcibly kissed and groped her in 2006, when Franken was a comedian.
Franken has since issued an apology to Tweeden and faces a potential investigation by the Senate Ethics Committee.

The powers that lurk in the shadows and the media are probing the enemy, the people. They are testing our emotional reactions to Alynski like dispersal of personal attacks. The new business in Washington is the assembly of fake or enhanced truth dossiers on sale to the highest bidders.
The president has been accused is inappropriate conduct by 15 women. Does that outrage you? I assume it does because you hate a double standard.
Just to be clear; did you mean MARK Levin? Mike doesn’t ring any bells.
The senate approves of their sexual assault.
Franken will probably resign, but Gov Mark Dayton (communist-MN) is standing by eager to appoint someone even more left than Franken.
The dam is about to break on all congressional sexual predators.
The tie was a nice touch.
Personally, I think the SOB should be disinterred from Arlington.
This traitor has no business sullying the soil where honorable men and true heroes lie.
Give me some hard evidence or shut up. You look stupid.
I agree, this is going the route of "adultery of the heart" kinds of standards which everyone could be found guilty of. The media should immediately put some kind of standard on new allegations of sexual misconduct. Perhaps a 5 year statute on new allegations, the telling of a close friend at the time, proof of opportunity, etc.
The photo from last week and what she said Franken did when they rehearsed the skit is enough for Schumer and McConnell to ask him to resign. This new woman’s story can’t be proven, so nothing will happen with it.
The same should happen to him as what they did to Robert Packwood.
McCONNEL MUST RELEASE THE NAMES OF PEOPLE WHO WERE PAID $15 MILLION TO SETTLE ASSAULT FROM CONGRESS-CRITTERS
Somebody show this clueless person an example of Al Franken hard evidence, please.
Rumor is the Gov. will appoint Muslim Communist Keith Ellison.
And not even an investigation; a `potential’ investigation.
It’s just more `rat special pleading. Forget it Jake.
Al Franken will be presented his Democratic Party Badge Of Touching next week
What kind of woman would want her picture taken with a Demonicrat politician?!?
What kind of husband would take a picture of his wife in close contact with a Demonicrat politician?!?!
Bill Clinton has spoken at every DNC Convention since he was President.
He’s greeted with loud cheers and applause.
So was Ted Kennedy.
