By announcing his impending retirement, and saying this was his last appearance in the Senate chambers, Al Franken is basically taking the holidays off on the taxpayer payroll.

Real justice would be; Al Franken goes back to Minnesota and is shot by a Somali refugee cop who is upset about how mean Al Franken is to women. (That would be a tough one to pick sides on...)

Simply that the expected doom and gloom of whomever or whatever follows Franken will turn to America’s favor.

The Establishment plots and gloats how it will get Trump, which is precisely why its days are numbered and the results won’t be as it plans.

The Establishment keeps causing its own demise and yet is utterly clueless.

Haman vs. Mordecai.

Wait till the next 6-7 accusers come out. And they will.

Al Franken, the freak of nature can't even be creative.
His announcement today of actually resigning continued the fiction of what Trump "confessed" to in the infamous Bozo Billy Bush videotape. That loser hasn't had the good sense to hide under his rock.

What I notice in that infamous tape is that the moron Billy Bush was deliberately baiting Trump. It was a setup from the getgo.
What is inexplicable is that Trump, usually an expert strategic thinker and planner, didn't see it coming.

Mr. Franken by his antics today only assured that the campaign against him will persist and likely become far more vicious. Just try to think about the time when Saddam’s soldiers claimed surrender during Desert Storm and maintained hostilities. Remember what happened to them.

Ooo! That would be nice. But I'm not sure she's inclined to re-enter the political arena. I shall hope.

He did NOT resign. If he was going to resign he would have said it and given the date he was leaving.

Franken’s putting off his BIG SURPRISE until after the Alabama election... He’s say he’s ‘grown’ and he’s going to ‘apologize’ and ‘take full responsibility’... whatever the hell that meaningless phrase means when falling from the mouth of a liberal.

If he was leaving he would have left...

He’s hoping by saying he’s going to resign at some future time, it will put pressure on Moore.

And then when Moore stands up to the pressure, Franken will use Moore as a reason why Franken backtracks on his promise to resign.

Franken probably wouldn’t resign even if Moore did.

That picture of him in a diaper just really creeps me out.

Nope he is staying. He said he did absolutely nothing to sully the senate, said it all happened before he became a senator, the women are liars, and used the platform to launch into the typical liberal tirade and sputtering spittal filled rant against POTUS and Moore.

It’s hilarious just how much the Democrats and the media would be ignoring any mention of “sexual misconduct” this year if HillBill Clinton had won the election.
