I am saying these shrinking violets ought to punch these predators and cuss them out publicly AT THE TIME, not slink away. What is your problem?

“Are you kidding? They blatantly STOLE that election. (boxes of ballots “found in trunks of cars”)”

Given an opportunity to cheat and win, the left will never be restrained by ethics.

Ethics Committee: Did you do any of the things of which you’re accused?

Frsnken: Only that one time in the picture we’ve all seem.

Ethics be Committee:. Thank you. This Committee is dismissed.

“And so little miss soldier (keep in mind I was a 100 pound female JAG officer) did you deck him or were you “nice”?”

I need to note the Mr. Franken effectively outranks her commanding general and with the Obama officers in charge, she couldn’t reasonably expect support up her chain of command.

These young ambitious women are willing participants to advance their careers. After years and its accompanying physical affects, as their careers wane, they suffer predictable regret.

The fems and cuckolds these women choose as companions just want to ‘support their woman’s choice’.

That worked when the cultural norms enforced sexual decorum and these men still had a sense of shame.

Giving a man a good slap today might effect something, but not what it did in the ‘old days’.

Thank you, dangerdoc, for a little common sense. Strangely lacking among most of the posts.

This was in 2003. W was president. Obama was a community organizer. Franken was still a bad comedian, not a bad senator.......................

> He's a Dhimmicrat. The rules don't apply.

Granted this bit of touchie-feelie was tacky and classless of Franken. He should be ashamed.

But "rules"? If copping a feel becomes the national threshold for personal destruction, every heterosexual man on Earth is as good as dead. Who among us males has NOT copped a feel at least once? Because that's all it takes to be strung up, apparently.

I can't wait to hear from the girls I dated in high school, complaining because I put an arm around them in a movie and explored a little. Good lord.

No /sarc here. Franken crossed some bad lines, no doubt. OTOH, this trend is getting ridiculous.

Let’s all stay off our righteous high horses. We are all, left and right, a nation of double standards. All we like sheep have gone astray.

Yes, who are we to judge?

Oh, and that bank robber over there, the one 'gone astray', just look away.

I have NOT lost my way. You seem to think a member of the armed forces has the freedom to do whatever she wants - the same way some lawyer can. Ridiculous on the face of it. Wake up.

A Minnesota paper editorialized Franken’s “apology” ...didnt like it.....said it sounded like he’s sorry for what “you think I did.”

A DISCOURAGING WORD FOR DEMOCRAT AL “THE CUPPER” FRANKEN
Here’s a powerful anti-Democratic campaign issue just begging for 30-second TV spot ads.

Democrat Al Franken raised $26 million from Hollywood celebs. He gave $25 million and change to other Democrat candidates (a bribe to get these Democrats on his side).

Peckerwood’s under siege as the Perv capital of the world........and tone-deaf Franken’s sucking up money from the likes of Harvey Weinstein clones and giving it to Democrat campaigns?

Like voters are gonna love that.

“BTW Al, you can forget about your long-held dream of being president....that pic of you cupping the breasts of a sleeping woman is your lasting legacy as a politician.”


Franken, GTH out of my government....this means you.

So, you go around copping feels? and approve of copping feels with members of the armed services?

I knew FR had fallen in recent years but this takes the cake.
