    Remember, the man was a comedian at the time. Sophomoric comedy was all his style, along with his peers. While today we may frown upon his antic, they were common at that time. We're judging him today as a politician, not a comedian.

    Like "locker room talk".
    Bull. His hand was on her breast.; not hovering. Any lying excuse for you people.

    Lying excuses are from your camp.

    Trumps admitted assault, is a lot more evidence than that photo.
    What part of "I moved on her like a bitcj" did you not get?

    His resigning is an attempt for the Democrats to say, now it is your turn Trump! Well, it isn't going to work since we all voted for Trump already knowing the allegations against him. We do not care about what he did before he entered politics, we only care of what he does going forward.

    His spoken "resignation" speech was revolting enough. Why would I want to read it?

    Has he resigned yet?

    No?

    That's what I thought.

    Stupid fool can't even get a resignation speech right. Guess he thinks he's still on SNL.

    He was the only Democrat who hoped Moore won. Then he wouldn't have to resign. He didn't intend to but got caught short.

    I'll bet Franken doesn't resign. Any takers?

    I think he will back out of it. He was really hoping Moore would win in Alabama.

    Franken was forced to resign in order to give Democrats the appearance of caring about sexual harassment in contrast to President Trump, judge Moore, and the GOP. This transparent tactic is certainly novel for the Dems. Traditionally they hailed their sexual harassers / rapists, as heroes. See Clinton and Ted Kennedy as examples. Will this new strategy work for the Dems? We shall see.

    Franken didn't kick off the new contrition campaign well. His non-apology is pretty lame.



    We have photographic evidence that Franken groped one woman. His attacks during his apology speech do not serve the Democratic Party well in its new attempt to rehabilitate its image with regards to the treatment of women.

    We have photo graphic evidence? You mean that wasn't a staged comic scene?
