    Al Franken’s first response to Leeann Tweeden’s accusations was the kind of statement he would have laughed out of the room during a Senate hearing.http://nyer.cm/N97uBmv

        He’s called for an Ethics investigation on HIMSELF! His apology was accepted by woman in question! Don’t falsely equate Franken to DT & Moore! Bad / inappropriate ‘jokes ‘ I can forgive Rape - assault- wittiness intimidation! Not so much!

        CHILD rape. Not just rape. This is a Stone-inspired false equivalence attack.

        Yes child rape. Rape itself is bad enough child rape is especially sickening. Trolls have been out trying to equate DT & Moore to Franken & Biden. I don’t think it’s fair to equate child rape, rape, assault & witnesses intimidation to Touchy-feely or inappropriate ‘joking’

        So we're going to have an investigation over #Franken kissing someone against their will (do it), but not over #Trump sexually assaulting more than a dozen women, including openly bragging about entering the dressing rooms of naked teenage girls, or raping a 13 year old?

        Good thing then that after releasing something fast, as Twitter demands, he followed up with a very eloquent apology that also accepted blame for his stupid, crude attempt at humor. And called for an ethics investigation, just like Trump and Moore did ... oh wait.

        Tweeden is a right winger, who has appeared as a talking head on Sean InsaHannity, and though the photo is not funny, Franken is not actually touching her. As for her story it’s a she said he said. Leeann has quite a body of work toopic.twitter.com/iVXn18KLPb

        Just another Thursday in #Salem2017. When a single account of a single incident is conflated with a pattern of evil, and has the mob howling to destroy another demonstrably good person. I hate this moment in time. 😠 #MoralPanic #IStandWithFranken cc @SenFranken pic.twitter.com/oUnumGm90B

        OMG! It is obvious from the photo and the photographer stated it was staged. Stupid photo. Nail him to the cross.

        Masturbating in front of women clearly is not the same thing as a kiss, however forceful and disgusting the kiss may be.

        If this trend continues we will soon have no Congress left - not necessarily a bad thing, so long as they take the executive branch with them.

        Sorry Al Franken. You decided to objectify Ms Tweeden as a sexualized bimbo to make a joke. Hardly fatal, but you did it and now you must pay for your actions at the going rate...and the going hate.
