Pictured below is Franken doing his perversion with a sleeping USO member in flight on a US military plane.

They really don’t mean it. What we need is a few protective husbands out there to punch them out. Obama stirred up the blacks to hate the police. Still paying dividends. Trump can lead the good men to do their first job which is to protect their women.

I watched about as much of Franken’s little skit as I could stomach and then eventually left the area. It simply wasn’t funny nor entertaining. To me he was insulting the military audience he was trying to entertain. Apparently believing that they could only be entertained by the lowest form of comedy. In Franken’s mind it appears that he thought that all that it took to get soldiers to laugh was a few dirty words and sexual innuendos. Franken obviously was mistaken since by judging the response of the audience most of his ‘performance’ fell on deaf ears. Not much different than his entire career in the United States Senate. Excellent post. This guy lives in a different world. I recall his first week or so in the Senate. He was presiding over something, (I guess they gave him the gavel that day). A republican senator was talking, and asked, for a few extra minutes. It's customary to allow this. Franken, said "no, I am not going to grant you any more time to talk." I think Senator McCain at this point got up, and said that in the 20 plus years in the Senate he had never seen a Senator being denied a few more minutes to talk on the floor. The rest of this guy's history in the Senate is your typical party politics, from a hack who should never have been there. Will he resign, or step down? I doubt it.

The real war on women is from the left.

Can any woman in this country now close her eyes without fear of being groped by Al Franken?

[HighSierra5]

THE most unfunny,ugliest,low life piece of excrement ever!

[Bon of Babble]

I'm glad this was an isolated incident.

Tucker Carlson said on his show last night that Franken is a terrible person who treats his staff like dirt. Surely the voters in MN have someone better than this failed comic to represent their state in the U. S. Senate.

[Kaslin]

I saw and heard that.

Is he up for reelection? The voters in MN need to wake up, but I don't have any confidence in them.

[Sans-Culotte]

While I do despise Franken, I don't see how his behavior in the past as an alleged comedian can have any relevance today. The voters knew he was a foul-mouthed jerk when they elected him.

I remember seeing him and his then-partner Tom Davis in a cable special they did for HBO or Showtime. They were standing before an audience talking about their days as writers an performers on SNL. A slide would appear on the screen behind them of one of the female co-stars of SNL. One of them would say something like "Who can forget Jane Curtin. A great comedienne." Then both of them said "F*cked her". Then they showed Lorraine Newman's picture and said the same thing, and then Gilda Radner's, etc. This guy's life as a sleaze had been an open book for some time.

He was one of those push the envelope go over the ledge comedians

The baby rape joke at rob Reiner roast was unbelievable. Reiner looks very uncomfortable

But let us remember that as the votes were counted on election night in 2008 Franken came up short and appeared to have lost the election by over a thousand votes. Somehow over the following month the Dems managed to steal the election for him.

[Biggirl]

Problem are those women who have no husbands. They have to protect themselves.

[Biggirl]

Amen. Second it.

[Biggirl]

Or the Dems will steal or try to.

“Surely the voters in MN have someone better than this failed comic to represent their state in the U. S. Senate.”.

They blew that opportunity twice when they let him “steal” the first election with some last minute “found” votes.
He is a loser and will always be a loser. Time to recall him ASAP before he gets worse.

[The Great RJ]

Franken needs to resign, but left wing loon MN Governor Mark Dayton will just appoint another left winger to replace him. Minnesotans need to be calling for an immediate special election. Hillary won the state by less than 10 points and if the state GOP gets off their collective butts they could pick up a Senate seat. Pete Hageseth would be a great candidate. Franken’s groping picture should be a prominent part of the campaign... tired of the hypocrisy?

[robowombat]

Not the first time in Mn. Rolvaag in 1960 did the same thing.
