    Yeah I think Franken should offer to resign if tRump does.  


    Figures these partisan hacks come out of the woodworks today when they all turned a blind eye to Trump admitting sexual assault and the 15 or so women who accused him.


    Striking how Franken came out, admitted what he did and apologized....meanwhile people like Moore and Trump who have been accused of far worse deflect and defame their accusers. Man up and accept responsibility

    Franken made a bad choice, did a dumb thing, no doubt about it.  Of course. much worse has is and will be going on out there in the world of political and other public figures.  But this isn't a liberal/conservative or a partisan issue.  It's a cultural issue.  

    Bottom line for me is, I vote for the best person or the least offensive person, but either way, I RARELY have looked to politicians as role models.  Really rarely. Really really really rarely. 
    Credibility.  Find some.

    If it were a Republican the mobs would be out here.  You know it.
    Franken has invited an investigation, and has apologized, even though he claims not to remember things the way the accuser did. He owned a mistake, even if it was a misinterpretation or whatever, and will work to make amends.

    Trump and Moore deny all the evidence, smear the accusers, and double down, while being disgusting human beings in numerous other aspects.

    Both sides are not the same. 
    I agree.  Good summation of the situation, CM.

    How long before they come out against creepy joe biden too?

    Or creepy Rand Paul?
    Hmmmmm, I wonder what might make your neighbor blind side tackle you? I wonder what it could be, particularly if your attorney claims it wasn’t a yard dispute and neither side is talking. Hush, I'd like to buy a clue.
    Considering his neighbor is a mentally unstable democrat it isn't a surprise.

    Now back to Al Franken, all of you were screaming for Trump to not get elected due to locker rooom talk, this guy actually did something.  Are you going to demand his resignation or are all of you just full of shit?
    trump’s wasn’t locker room talk, unless you’ve been hanging out in a locker room full of sex offenders.

    Annnnnd the deflection. Who here is defending Bill Clinton? You made the statement and clearly think what Trump is accused of and did is no big deal. No one here is defending Franken either. The difference is in his response and subsequent actions. 
    It's a hopeless situation...

    You know, for someone who’s so non partisan, unsung sure does follow that Trump 3 step formula that John Oliver talked about a couple of days ago.

    Was Clinton a sex offender? Or unfaithful?

    I still can't fucking believe that Trump had the nerve to comment on this, as though he's not a sexual predator himself. Jesus, that guy is seriously delusional. Unreal..... Still waiting for the public at large and the media to remember that the POTUS is suitable company for Weinstein, Franken, Spacey, and Cosby. Right now I am basically flabbergasted by the blinders that have been donned for Donald.

    Where’s Randy Paul’s comments on Roy Moore? Maybe he’s got some skeletons in his closet. Or is it ghosts?

    It really is quite exceptional. But it mostly goes unnoticed or uncared about because, you know, the president from 5 terms ago also did bad stuff.

    Are you sure you're not thinking about Trump? Because Trump has had 16 accusers (including 2 who were 13 years old at the time of the assault, as well as his ex-wife). As far as I've ever read, Clinton has had 4 accusers.

    I think trump brought 4 woman up to the stage with him accusing bill.  There were more than that I believe.  Either way, one is enough.

    Isn’t it crazy that almost every single thing he posts on here is hypocritical, and in most of said hypocritical posts he is accusing other people of being hypocrites?! It’s quite impressive actually.
