Al Franken 'Allegedly' Grabbed Joy Behar’s Breast at Comedy Central Roast for Rob Reiner (Photo)
Breitbart ^ | 16 Nov 2017 | Jerome Hudson

Posted on 11/16/2017 1:03:53 PM PST by drewh

Amid the emergence of a 2006 photo of Al Franken groping journalist and talk radio anchor Leeann Tweeden, a photo of the embattled Minnesota Senator appearing to grab comedian Joy Behar’s breast has also resurfaced. The photo was taken at the New York Friar’s Club Roast of Rob Reiner. The event, which took place in October 2000, was presented by Comedy Central.

On Thursday, The View co-host reacted to the photo of Franken and Tweeden — taken during a two week USO Tour by, according to the USO, Sen. Franken’s brother Owen Franken — and said, “it’s just so disappointing.”

“It was disappointing to hear this about Al Franken. I can’t back Al. He’s a very funny comedian, he was during this time. He’s a senator from Minnesota,” Behar said. “He’s a great advocate for women. It’s just so disappointing. Men of all different stripes are out there doing crazy sh*t.”

Behar said Tweeden’s claims that Franken shoved his tongue down her throat without her consent during a rehearsal for a USO skit are “more upsetting than the picture, because in the picture he was obviously making a joke.”

“I don’t know if he actually had his hands on her, but it’s the part [about the USO skit] where he thrust his tongue down her throat, allegedly, and forced her to kiss him. That is what you call nonconsensual assault,” Behar said.

Franken apologized, twice, for groping Tweeden and called for a Senate ethics probe into his own behavior.

“I am asking that an ethics investigation be undertaken, and I will gladly cooperate,” he wrote.

“This is much ado about nothing. If he was touching her breast his hand would have been about two feet lower.”

What’s with MN electing someone like Franken senator? I thought outside the Muslim enclaves, they were mostly Lake Woebegone Lutheran types, but obviously not.

Franken lost the election until some boxes of ballots were "found" in the trunk of a car. He then won by a few hundred votes.

That photo tells me that Stuart Smalley takes his groping lessons from Joey Biden. He uses the same technique.

Tired of all this winning yet? If not for the blessed event of 2016, none of this would be happening.

That statement right there is beyond 100% correct!

Donald Trump's winning made the Uniparty member's heads explode and it is showing us how ignorant and childish they really are. They cannot control themselves and are lashing out like a three year old having a tantrum, which is actually their real emotional and cognitive age.

Our system has been twisted so bad for so long that sociopathic people (aka almost all politicians) are groomed and lead by groups of nasty, anti-American advisors and staff who are behind the scenes, to take over our Government and turn it into an elitist lead oligarchy.

They knew that if Hillary won that would have been the last step in the downfall of or Nation. They were so close that when Trump won they could not stop themselves from going nuts and now they are overtly trying to take over our Country by both political and physical (ANTIFA, BLM, etc...) force.

I’d love to hear that some liberal groped Woopie Goldberg.

Ted Danson did a LOT more than just grope her.

I need brain bleach after just thinking and typing this.

Their problem with this sex stuff is they’ve unleashed a firestorm of accusations that can go anywhere and destroy anyone. In the early eighteenth century the Salem Witch Trials did the same thing. The Mass. Bay Colony’s leaders shut the trials down for that very reason.

God, she’s hit the skids in the last ten years.

I have known quite a few nasty, soulless, women, and some men, who were good looking and became really ugly by the time they were in their 50s.

Yep. That is exactly the expression a woman has on her face when someone is taking unwanted liberties with her body (especially her breasts). Nope.

You’re not kidding about the brain bleach.

I still don’t believe that Huma A. slept with Hitlery.
