Let's see if all these Democrats that are "outraged" over Moore will demand Frank resign. Hell, I'd like to see the GOPe grow some balls and call for his resignation. I'm going to go out on a limb and guess neither happen.

Yep, won't even be an issue to them.

And I’m sure the conservatives will insist that proof be provided and that we must reserve judgement, just as they have with Moore?

Well has Franken denied it? And do you not consider the photograph to be proof?

Lol!

I’ll take this as admission of the same hypocrisy you accuse the left of.

Is anyone really surprised?

I mean - seriously - if we had an award for "Senator Most Likely to Have Groped Someone", wouldn't Al Franken be at the top of your list?

I don't even know who my second choice would be ... maybe Bernie (a long time ago) or Chuckie (seems to be the "laws are for little people" type).

I guess the photo isn't proof, but some yearbook from high school is?

Dude. C'mon. :o
A photo of the assualt taking place is several places in this thread.
Proof doesn't get more iron clad than a photo of a crime in progress.

WTF? How so? If he claims his innocence then I'll give him the benefit of the doubt until proven guilty. But can you show me photographic evidence that Moore did what he's accused of?

Now I'm asking for our Senators to be consistent in their behavior. The standard for dropping out of a race or getting out of the Senate it to just be accused. No proof is necessary. So let's see how consistent they are in their standard.

Franklin releases semi-apology, denying the accusation about the kiss and saying the photo was a joke.

https://www.politico.com/story/2017/11/ ... her-244976
"I certainly don’t remember the rehearsal for the skit in the same way, but I send my sincerest apologies to Leeann. As to the photo, it was clearly intended to be funny but wasn't. I shouldn't have done it."
(He followed it up with, "and I have now decided to live my life as a gay man".)

Wait, that's not good enough. The Dems now believe it's her version that counts. He should be asked to resign. I mean, it's only fair, right? Oh, and this just came out. How many more of them could there be?

Well do you have pictures of Moore? I see a picture of Franken. But yes just as with all the others I would like some proof other than she said this. As for the picture it appears from the picture that he did not actually make contact with her unless there is a later picture but in todays climate that would be classified as a sexual assault wether he made contact or not. But again as for the kiss allegation yes I need some proof, if he is denying it then somebody is lying.

Again, the only case in all of these we know about or not is Louis CK and very old GW bush, the rest remain allegations and being denied by the person being accused.

But if you are using the same method as the current Moore deal then yes, Franken should be kicked out of the congress immediately

When you're innocent, you don't say "I certainly don’t remember the rehearsal for the skit in the same way". I don't have to remember all of the details to know that I have never groped someone or forcibly tongue-kissed them.
