    Geraldo was right about impeachment (the Senate, at least)...but Bill Clinton's final LEGACY is indeed going to go down in flames - he's possibly the worst president ever (at least based on his constant sexual atrocities.)

    This is going to be a real TEST for the Dems. Keep Franken and their credibility as the women-friendly party will evaporate.

    Actually it does. And "inappropriate kiss" between a reporter and a comedian is an entirely different matter from an "inappropriate kiss" between a reporter and a Senator.

    And NEITHER rises to anything LIKE a sexual relationship with an adult District Attorney and a 14 year old girl

    Not sure this is true. Dems have an amazing ability to filter out the negatives in their own behavior.

    Are you able to answer the question without all the puffery your giving us; a simple yes or no would suffice.

    Slick WAS Impeached.Impeachment is a process.
    He wasn't Impeached from office.He went thru Impeachment.
    The Senate did not have enough votes to Impeach from office.
    The house did have enough votes.

    100% true. Good post.
    I think Slick is only the 2nd president ever to be impeached by the House.

    Perhaps you should learn something about what she said happened, and the time frame his "joke" took place. It's far worse considering the circumstances.

    Oh, wait, you were talking about BILL - I keep forgetting that HILLARY isn't the only Clinton who lies through their teeth as a standard operating procedure.

    Andrew Johnson was also Impeached.
    That was in 1868.The House's primary charge was
    violation of Tenure of Office Act,passed just a year prior.

    Much much less agregious "crime" than Slick Willy's crimes....clearly Slick Willy has to be considered one of the very worst presidents ever (second only to Tricky Dick.)

    Actually, "Tricky Dick" would be a good name for CLINTON, now that I think about it. Hehe.

    A bad joke, after he shoved his tongue down her throat, drew horns etc. on her publicity photo, etc.. This was on the plane home after she had to put up with two weeks of Al's BS. Bad joke? More like continued harassment and degrading sexist pig action.

    That's the part you were trying to avoid.

    However, I fully expect Al's party to completely ignore and run from little Al's "oopsie, my bad".

    I believe the headline was "he harassed her too". Where does that mention it was sexual?

    So it's only bad if a male sexually abuses? It's ok to mentally abuse and frighten?

    Besides, quite interesting you are excusing threatening behavior by Franken against a woman.

    So what are you actually accusing him of?

    Arguing?

    OMG! Something has to be sexual for you to condemn it!? Wow! Stop running interference for liberals who behave badly.


    From the article:
    After the show, Morgan said Franken wouldn’t leave her alone, insisting on continuing the argument.

    “He approached me backstage, angrily called me out on those numbers and insisted he would prove he was right. He wouldn’t leave me alone, he kept following me. As a woman, his presence and proximity to me felt very threatening and intimindating.

    “I didn’t realize his creepy behavior after the show meant it would continue in the days to come.

    “He approached Carol, the show’s producer and demanded my home phone number, which was a clear violation of network protocol. I had thought that was the end of the story and was shocked when he started calling my home, badgering me repeatedly.

    “I became fearful and called Carol to complain and asked her to tell him to back off. But he made another call after that. I thought that he might end up stalking me at my home in Northern California, it was that bad.

    “By the third phone call I was outraged and terrified, as he is really disturbed,” Morgan recounted.

    Are you inventing stuff now?

    I didn't hear her say anything about putting up with two weeks of Al's BS.
