“Maybe the best test of all for our country would have been that Franken didn’t resign, but stayed to face the people who put him in office in the first place.”


Yeah, well, stay tuned. He didn’t actually resign, he only said that he would. I think that he is going to stay, and use the excuse of counter-balancing Moore in the Senate. He never admitted wrong-doing or apologized.

He hasn't resigned yet, he only said he would at some point in the future.

If Roy Moore loses and he is no longer an impediment to harassing Moore, he will most likely renege and hope the whole thing blows over. The problem with being a major league hypocrite is that sooner or later someone calls you out on it.

Oh I would agree with that and I even think that some lobbyists in Minn have already lined up their guy (probably two months ago) to be the replacement person. My bet is on the governor appointing either himself (he’s 70 years old), or his Lt Governor (Tina Smith).

I noticed regional newspapers that some folks think Tina Smith gets the job as a caretaker and doesn’t run in the senate election when it comes up (leaving this to someone else). My guess is that she’d come back to Minn, and run for governor in 2019.

“I’d say more Americans would be satisfied if their elected representatives just shut up, legislated minimally, and got the military funded to ensure national security.”

Yup. When politicians gather to “make life better”, that’s when I worry.

“Franken’s not going to resign.”

I hope you’re right (tho I don’t believe you are) because a crippled Franken will turn that Senate seat red in 2020. His numbers are at already at rock bottom and Minnesotans just aren’t all much for drama anyway.

Hard to believe Minnesotans want a man who feels up women when they’re sleeping.

It’s too creepy... like sexually abusing a women when she’s had too much to drink... or taking pictures up a women’s skirt.

Really creepy stuff.

Oh, I know. I’ve said that Franken’s signal to depart had the unspoken contingency that Moore would not be seated. And perhaps not even then.

If Moore wins his seat, it wouldn’t surprise me if Franken gives a fiery speech, withdraws his resignation, and liberals everywhere rejoice over it—including feminists who crusade against the kind of harassment we have solid proof of Franken engaging in.

It's time for an investigation into liberal women who 'put out' TO TOP men in Network News for advantage.

Liberal women who steal promotions from traditional women who DON'T 'spread their legs' for the powerful Matt Lauer types.

How many liberal women at ABC, CBS, NBC, Hollywood and the New York Times stole promotions from traditional women by dishing out sex to men like Matt Lauer, Al Franken and Harvey Weinstein?

Stealing jobs from decent women - BY WOMEN WHO 'PUT OUT' IS AN 'ABUSE OF WOMEN' It WOULD explain why there's so few conservative women at the top in Hollywood, the press and Network News.
