30. He didn't admit to "unwanted" tongue.

Said he remembers it differently than her.
But the idea that he wrote the skit with a kiss because of his intentions for her doesn't pass the smell test, since he was doing the skit without her 3 years before he was doing the skit with her.

I was not pay much attention to the "kiss" since it clearly falls into "she said/he said" question everything Nov 2017 #1
The photo has shadows under the fingers that show he's not really touching her, pnwmom Nov 2017 #2
Of course he is not touching. This is a flat surface this is why is "cupping." question everything Nov 2017 #4
He apologized for the photo and she accepted his apology. pnwmom Nov 2017 #5
Yes, it should question everything Nov 2017 #6
And that's fine. I suspect she won't want to participate though. We'll see. n/t pnwmom Nov 2017 #7
Of course she won't since there are plenty of questionable photos coming out from that occasion still_one Nov 2017 #8
Right. They won't really want to set the precedent of investigating every single claim pnwmom Nov 2017 #9

That is exactly what they do. n/t pnwmom Nov 2017 #10
They did it to Shirley Sherrod for the same reason. wallyworld2 Nov 2017 #17
ffs give it a rest. Lil Missy Nov 2017 #11
Sure I will. As soon as people stop calling for him to resign. n/t pnwmom Nov 2017 #14
Its not necessary to cast aspersions on the victim. Nor should he resign Lil Missy Nov 2017 #15

I don't see anyone on here calling for that, though. moriah Nov 2017 #21
I think its pretty obvious Franken didn't write the skit for her specifically, considering LisaL Nov 2017 #22
I have no idea, truthfully. I'm going with what he's admitted to. moriah Nov 2017 #27
He didn't admit to "unwanted" tongue. LisaL Nov 2017 #30
Exactly. He didn't admit and it wouldn't be a crime here. moriah Nov 2017 #31
LisaL, where is the skit of Franken doing the act in 2003? I can't find it. n/t pnwmom Nov 2017 #34
The first video in your OP. LisaL Nov 2017 #37
That's funny. pnwmom Nov 2017 #39
Whoever twitted it apparently labeled it incorrectly. LisaL Nov 2017 #40
I saw a few, I think relatively early on. Other than that, it's a strawman. Denzil_DC Nov 2017 #23

With a different actress. This is an old skit. mainer Nov 2017 #35
Right. He was doing the same skit with a different actress in 2003. LisaL Nov 2017 #36
That's right. It was a three year old skit he wrote in anticipation of getting his tongue rzemanfl Nov 2017 #38
Thank you for not claiming she was lying because she showed her boobs in a men's magazine. Iggo Nov 2017 #41
Here's Franken talking about the skit in 2005 tammywammy Nov 2017 #42
I don't think he even made changes. It sounds like exact same skit was just repeated with different LisaL Nov 2017 #43
