(2,190 posts)That's what *I* do, as soon as I find out that I offended someone.
And I think that Al Franken is a decent person, although I don't have any problem believing that, especially in his "comedian" days, he behaved differently than he does today.
And I think that the "decent person" response is endemic to Democrats and not Republicans. Therefore, we suffer.
I'd love to see a full investigation. I'd love to hear Leann Tweeden's response to her friend Tom Arnold's accusations. Other than her, I'm willing to believe most of the accusers. Let's have an investigation!
I think that if we don't investigate these things, then Democrats are going to resign and Republicans (except for people who encouraged their mistresses to have abortions, which seems to be the GOP hard line) will stay.
That doesn't help *anyone.*
