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.

Touching those dirty pillows causes a toxic shock. Maybe that is why Franken is so evil.

Franken swears he had to be very drunk, paid well and on a dare to do it.

What really boils down to is the treasonous, globalist socialists are attacking the Uniparty from the left and patriotic Americans are attacking the Uniliparty from the Constitution.

The 2018 primaries will be a bloodbath for incumbents of both parties and I suspect it will be one of the largest shakeups of Congress in modern times.

Great advocates for women don’t treat women the way Franken does.

Leering sexual pic-taking using a sleeping woman as a prop is okay? Words fail.

“It was disappointing to hear this about Al Franken. I can’t back Al...................Roh ruh, when you lose Behar you might be in trouble? Oh wait....he is deep state and nothing will happen to him. He apologized and said he didn't remember the kissing event and that is the reason that all accusers should be believed. He wants the ethics committee. Of course he does. Ethics committee in congress is a criminal enterprise. Heck all of congress is.

Why would she allow him to do that in public?

Doesn’t she get it, that this more or less makes it look cool to do this?

This is no favor to women. It’s a betrayal of them.

Drat, more Franken stuff.

For a minute I thought that somebody had ACTUALLY roasted Rob Reiner.

Al is hardly a man at all, so it’s probably no big deal.

Why in hell have the Republicans demanded he resign? There is visual proof that he's guilty.

The double standard between how they have reacted to Roy Moore and Franken is outrageous.
