In reply to the discussion: Fuck. This. Shit. [View all]Sunlei
(22,651 posts)238. rec & IMO Al ASKS for ethics review, will place the PEDO(s) & attackers of woman
on the same public stage.
By the way, I though it was mentioned the woman wasn't asleep when the photo was taken- they were pretending to sleep as part of a skit for photos.
I found most annoying the major media used the 'asleep' words the RW 'propaganda medias used when they 'crafted" this smear around a USO tour 'photo'. Crafted attack it was by the same RW medias known for years for their business of smears for republican party only.

Bullshit. People are a sum of their parts. Franken has been a huge ally to women.

So you really think a woman sleeping close to a comedian should be prepared for that to happen? n/t

I agree with every word. And I am mad that Franken even asked for this to be investigated.

Well this is how politics works right? Eventually even the worst behaviors have to be justified.

That what Sen Franken has done can be compared to Roy Moore's degeneracy is monstrous.
