If any harassment charge comes out against that guy you know the apocalypse is coming. At this pace he may be the only elected male left in D.C.

You know, it wasn't that many years ago when a black dude would get strung up from a tree just for looking at a white woman.
What has been impressed on me since the pussy grabber audio tape came out, and onward through today, is that white males apparently felt they could get away with this shit. Let's be honest, they are born with white male privilege and are protected by it to some extent. If we can't be honest about that, then we are just bullshitting ourselves and not learning anything from these sordid affairs.

Obama assaulted no one. He was a great man. Our greatest president.
What would you say to the white males on this board defending Franken? Isn't that pretty much white privilege defending white privilege?

What do you think I would say? Seriously?
I have been working all day and not following the festivities. But if Franken fondled women and kissed them without their consent, that is indefensible.
And you know this how? Are you an expert on who is gay?Pence,gayest man in America
When you call bitches ho's....I don't think males of color are immune from treating women any different.

If you haven't been able to read the board or follow the story then no problem. But not surprisingly partisanship and political power trumps all for many.
The political reality is democrats wouldn't lose anything by him stepping down because they would retain the seat. But if we're talking white male privilege and trying to end it then he should step down. On a relative scale his actions weren't that bad but they still fall under the umbrella of harassment and if the desire is to end privilege he should be gone.
You've called me and others out for not saying enough to racist people on the right. This could be your opportunity to call out fellow white male liberals on the board defending Franken.
I don't give a shit about what happens to Franken.
I also remember that liberals put Weinstein and Weiner on blast, while to this day most rightwingers are rationalizing and excusing what Trump and Moore did. You haven't noticed a substantive difference, Cawacko?
Now, if I see any liberal say Franken kissing women non-consensually is an okay thing to do, I will put them on blast,
.Senate Dems Leave No Room For Ambiguity In Denouncing Al Franken
Democratic senators were unequivocal on Thursday in their calls for an investigation into sexual assault allegations against Sen. Al Franken*(D-Minn.), in stark contrast to how their Republican peers have responded to allegations against GOP Alabama Senate nominee Roy Moore.*
About two dozen Democratic senators have come forward with statements denouncing Franken’s alleged behavior during a USO tour in December 2006. Anchorwoman and sportscaster Leeann Tweeden said Thursday that Franken groped and kissed her without her consent.
