He admitted groping her AFTER the photo of him groping her was released. He has not admitted the earlier sexual assault. "He just put his hand on the back of my head and mashed his face against me," Tweeden said in a news conference Thursday. "It happened so fast. He mashed his lips against my face and stuck his tongue in my mouth so fast. All I can remember is that his lips were really wet and slimy." MN should read his apology closely. It is not true that Franken has admitted what Tweeden alleged. He has admitted to what was in a photograph for the world to see. He has not admitted the other serious allegation of sexual assault in Tweeden's account.
If Franken stays he will do a lot of damage to the Democrat party. I'm not complaining, but then you folks lose all moral authority to go after Moore. That also doesn't help if another Democrat sleazebag gets popped, you think this thing is over? Moore has consistently denied any wrongdoing. That includes anything with the 14 year old. If its legal it isn't wrong. Its not about who is defending who, the fact remains Weinstein's age difference with the starlets is as big or bigger than Moore and his accusers. Yet age difference only matters when its a Republican, total hypocrisy.
1. He didn't admit groping or touching her.... Read the apology... But you are correct in that he apologized for taking the dumb picture.. 2. He remembers the kissing situation differently and he did had her verbal consent to kiss her.... per her allegation... the probability that he does have wet and slimy lips isn't really relevant.. 3. Really tired of explaining this over and over.... it really is a pretty simple case if you'd bother to read allegation, apology, and apology acceptance. 4. I did post a goofy pic of Moore in response to a goofy pic of Franken, but another poster brought the complete Moore allegations in here in detail... I'd prefer to leave Moore (and Weinstein) stuff out as well... it's apples and oranges.... but it's my bad that I cannot let such obvious BS go past without comment...
He also didn't admit sexually assaulting her earlier when he forced his tongue in her mouth earlier, against her will. That was my point, his "apology" was bs. You were the one who presented it as meaningful. He doesn't belong in the US Senate. That is a job that includes confirming Judges to the highest court in the land. A guy who sexually assaults women and then creeps on them when they are vulnerable and sound asleep simply isn't suited for the office.
Moore molested young underage teens, Donnie told a shock jock that his own daughter was a hotie! What kind of so called "father" says something sexual about his own daughter?
I dunno man....if you do the crime you do the time. Same for Moore, if he did the crime he should do the time. Admitting a mistake because you've been caught means diddly squat.
No.....he needs to stay in office where he can more effectively lecture us mere mortals on 'respecting women'.....
Why would Franken resign? If the Minnesota voters don't like him, they can vote him out in 2020. Obviously, Franken has no intention of resigning. How is the RW Fever Swamp even coming up with this delusional BS.? Franken resign?
He shouldn't resign - he should get a medal. Maybe a couple of nice beefy ladies in flannel shirts could help him pin it where the sun don't shine. Poetic justice & all.
It is interesting that when something like this happens liberals are always waving conservative's morals in their face. It's interesting because liberals have no morals to violate so they think they've done nothing wrong no matter what they do.
Both sides do that. The alt-right waves morality in everyone's faces while rushing to the defense of a man accused of dating an underage girl, and supporting a man who broke at least 3 of the 10 Commandments for President who also supporting partial birth abortion and bragged about sexually abusing women. The left is rushing to defend a degenerate comedian who thinks sexual abuse is amusing. I'd say neither side actually has any morals.
