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.

Investigation, my ass. Why is he not facing expulsion?
He is a Demoncrat, They will revoke his gym membership for 3 days as punishment.
If there is no picture, he’ll deny it.
I was listening to Mike Levin, I know, I apologize, but he said that there has not been a single disciplinary action on a single person under investigation. He also said that it takes an average of 9 years to do the investigations. So basically, the entire investigation thing means they don’t care.
If so, its another big nothing burger. Al Franken? everyone knows he's an aggressive homosexual with a penchant for pissing off womxn . . .
There have been something like 600 ‘investigations’ in the last 30 years and no expulsions resulted.
It’s a ‘kick the can down the road’ play out the clock stall and let the storm blow over tactic.
Funny seeing leftists online say the first victim was asking for it because she was a Playboy model. Wut?!
Inappropriate touching? Joe Biden did this kind of thing daily as VP.
Uh, I believe this is actually the third accuser, isn’t it?
I don’t care. I’m no franken fan, but this stuff is getting just stupid.
Give me some hard evidence or shut up. You look stupid.
Yep.
Menendez is still there. That’s all you need to know.
This will allow Big Media to equate Franken with the Coward Brother Bushes’ father.
Dems have double standards. I guess they figure better double standards then no at all!
I don’t care if it is the 500th, and I don’t care if it’s franken, Moore, Pence or Lincoln. If there is no evidence, they can talk to the hand.
And nowadays video evidence will be easy to acquire.
I will say that if I was an attractive woman that was considering working for him, this may give me second thoughts, but how a candidate seeking my vote treats women who are not his wife is irrelevant to me unless one of the following is true:
1. There is evidence beyond verbal claims by the woman.
2. He admits it.
This is nothing more than a distraction - and intellectually insulting.
Franken is inappropriately considered a human being.
What...is he a talk show host or something?
And take away his Bloomingdale’s charge card!
A classic sophomorish punk with a mind full of potty humor.
