well there was a photo of him groping, or at the very least pretending to fondle, a sleeping soldier, like a pervert.

He is a comedian and we all know he never touched her (and that is why you added the last part).
So the Dems. made a man quit even though you just admitted he never touched her and yet the Repubs. elected someone who has multiple sex accusations against him (and let's not forget Roy Moore where 550,000 people voted for a pervert/pedophile) and you think the Dems are the party that is morally bankrupt.

Accusations are not evidence. They are accusations. |

"He is a comedian "
Ha ha ha, a 60 year-old man pretending to grope a sleeping soldier, oh please stop my stomach hurts from laughing so hard.
Has Franken denied that he did anything wrong? I thought he apologized. If he confessed, well that's pretty good evidence he acted stupidly.
Here's the photo. If this is genuine and not doctored, it looks like he's touching her in a way I wouldn't let him touch my wife. Is this not the photo?
"you think the Dems are the party that is morally bankrupt"
I think politicians in general, on both sides, are corrupt. If you want to talk about degree, the democrats are worse, every day and twice on Sunday. |

Staunch conservative who wasn't upset w/the picture until he bc a Senator. On a comedy tour to visit the soldiers together.
Has Franken denied that he did anything wrong? Yes, in fact he did. Admitted to nothing. I thought he apologized. If he confessed, well that's pretty good evidence he acted stupidly.Never confessed - I believe he denied.
Here's the photo. If this is genuine and not doctored, it looks like he's touching her in a way I wouldn't let him touch my wife. Is this not the photo?It is but everyone says you can see shadows below the hands.

So we disagree on that statement. I see some/(many but not all) Republicans and having bc morally bankrupt. Falling in lockstep w/Trump - environment, fiscal policies, etc. Allow his lies and scummy deeds to go unchecked (more news today about that Trump and Eric talked about Stormy D. even thought he repeatedly said he didn't). They have risen to a level of anger and pettiness previously not seen. You can see it here.
So the Repubs are corrupt but the Dems are some degree more corrupt yet that "degree" causes you to hate the Dems. the way you do - wow. |
