OK, now I'm just mad as hell........an Army vet comes forward saying Al Franken cupped her breast.

82. I understand the fear and intimidation victims of sexual harrassment feel and how, especially when

working with or for men, a sense of being powerless can freeze a woman from confronting the abuser. But this Franken stuff has me completely confused. If, what this woman says is true - and he kept his hand all the way over her breast -- why the hell did she not immediately say "Al take your freaking hand off my breast right now"? Or more politely, "Hey Al, I think you missed my shoulder" - or even moved away from him and not take the photo?

She didn't work for him. She was in a public place with people milling around. There was a photographer pointing a camera right at her when his hand was on her breast. Why freeze up and submit to inappropriate groping? I know I can't speak for all women - or how women "should" behave when faced with this - but jeez -- this woman was not in any way powerless to confront a man who she says is behaving inappropriately. Of course, that's if one is going to believe this story. Which I have a hard time doing. And this goes for the other accuser - the one who's husband was standing there taking the picture while she supposedly was groped. Very very odd and, for me, these accusations really diminish the real assaults and harrassment that real victims face.
