silly. you don't fight allegations with facts. you fight allegations with misdirections and run-arounds, then sic the IRS on the accusers. you obviously didn't learn anything over the past 8 years.
He repeated that actors really need to rehearse everything and that we must practice the kiss. I said ‘OK’ so he would stop badgering me. We did the line leading up to the kiss and then he came at me, put his hand on the back of my head, mashed his lips against mine and aggressively stuck his tongue in my mouth.
I immediately pushed him away with both of my hands against his chest and told him if he ever did that to me again I wouldn’t be so nice about it the next time.
I walked away. All I could think about was getting to a bathroom as fast as possible to rinse the taste of him out of my mouth…
I know this story isn’t about the husband. But had this been my wife, I would have gone after the comedian (now senator) and wound up pistol-whipped by one of Franken’s armed body guards. Probably while he was pushing for gun control.It wasn’t until I was back in the US and looking through the CD of photos we were given by the photographer that I saw this one:

I couldn’t believe it. He groped me, without my consent, while I was asleep.
I felt violated all over again. Embarrassed. Belittled. Humiliated.
How dare anyone grab my breasts like this and think it’s funny?
I told my husband everything that happened and showed him the picture.
I wanted to shout my story to the world with a megaphone to anyone who would listen, but even as angry as I was, I was worried about the potential backlash and damage going public might have on my career as a broadcaster.
But that was then, this is now. I’m no longer afraid.
You knew exactly what you were doing. You forcibly kissed me without my consent, grabbed my breasts while I was sleeping and had someone take a photo of you doing it, knowing I would see it later, and be ashamed. … My story is worth telling.
I'd agree for personal reasons, but the courts would not. Age of consent in NY is 17. Funny enough it is higher than PA or NJ which both are 16.
Al Franken Accused of Kissing and Groping Without Consent. It Gets Worse…
John Porter Thursday November 16 2017
Al franken
Yes, leftists. “Blah blah blah, this was before Al Franken was a US Senator. #fakenews #yesallwomen #unlessitbenefitsuspolitically.” We also had no problem calling out Roy Moore (see State Rep Says Moore Accusers Should be Prosecuted. Why That’s a Bad Idea… and Innocent Until Guilty? Yes. But It’s Not Looking Good for Roy Moore…). So replace Franken with a Republican, re-read this, then kiss my ***.
A leftist comedian, less than two years before being elected a leftist Senator, sexually harassed a reporter on a USO TOUR, and THAT isn’t even the bad part.
The story is as bad as you can get. But this is probably the worst bit:
So Franken is a creepy pervert. Who should probably resign now, yes?
I know this story isn’t about the husband. But had this been my wife, I would have gone after the comedian (now senator) and wound up pistol-whipped by one of Franken’s armed body guards. Probably while he was pushing for gun control.
So what is Franken’s excuse going to be? He’s entering rehab? He was drunk and has chosen to live as a straight man?What about all the good leftist work he’s done (see Sen. Al Franken Tries ‘Grilling’ Neil Gorsuch. Thoroughly Embarrasses Himself Instead…)? This is really the NRA’s fault, right? Or maybe Hillary will sell this as a vast, right-wing boob conspiracy.
Oh, before we forget, Al Franken tweeted this in 2014:
![]()
The internet is forever. Payback’s a *****.
Methinks we may have a senator’s seat opening soon.
I also don’t think Franken is the only one to fall…
Wait... Al Franken is straight?
Wait... Al Franken is straight?
exactly. divert attention elsewhere when it doesnt fit your ******* narrative.
My understanding is that those laws were created so that DAs wouldn’t have to press rape charges against 18-19 year old boys with 16-17 year old girlfriends.
Why would a 30+ year old want to be with a 17 year-old? By the time I was in my mid-20s, I couldn’t stand being around younger women.
Oh, lighten up!
Let’s talk narrative. The irony of this whole thread is the rule that the subject must pertain to democrat and liberal allegations only. So... one-sidedness... hypocrisy....diversion.... whataboutism.
the hypocritical angle, Flogodim, is due to how the elitist left will go up in arms over an allegation when it pertains to anyone on the right while running misdirection on any allegation for anyone that is aligned to their views or puts money in their pockets. We've cited a few such instances in this very damn thread. Weinstein, Bill Clinton, Takei, Al Franken.
McCaskill calls for ethics investigation of Franken
Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.) said Thursday she supports an ethics investigation into the accusations that Sen. Al Franken (D-Minn.) groped a woman without her consent, calling his alleged behavior “completely unacceptable.”
How do you figure? Weinstein is done. Kevin Spacey and Louis C.K. have had shows and movie releases cancelled. How is that running misdirection? Hannity did his best to run misdirection with Moore and it looks like the MSM has finally gotten to him. Ditto for Ivanka. Trump knows he is no one to shame for sexually assault. At least Louis C.K. and Franken were man enough to own up to it and apologize. When was the last time someone on the right did the right thing?
