(61,033 posts)for obvious repug hit jobs.
We should be discounting Tweeden, the first accuser's account, where she submitted a gag photo that alleged Senator Franken groped her but upon closer review showed he wasn't actually touching her at all?
But a photo did emerge as the story developed of her actually groping a guitar player's ass on the same USO tour? Is everyone forgetting that, that she actually did grope someone but wasn't pilloried like Franken was.
Not to mention the fact that she, Roger Stone and Hannity concocted the whole hit job, with Stone predicting what was coming hours before the story broke.
Come on folks, a little analytical thinking is required if we're not to make all of our male office holders and candidates vulnerable to what seems like a repug test run for their latest dirty tricks tactic.
The first incident that started the drip, drip, drip of the others sounds very suspicious, folks.
Let's be smarter than to throw our accused Democrats under the bus without the investigaton Franken himself called for and from which Tweeden immediately back off of by saying it wasn't necessary and she didn't want him to resign.
What was she scared of us finding out?
