The boob grabbing may have been comedy but the above action sure as hell isn't.

So, it may be on the front of every newspaper but it's what's written inside that's the key and what some of the Democrats and fellow comedians do to protect this guy.

“The first thing I want to do is apologize: to Leeann, to everyone else who was part of that tour, to everyone who has worked for me, to everyone I represent, and to everyone who counts on me to be an ally and supporter and champion of women,” Mr. Franken wrote.

“I respect women. I don’t respect men who don’t,” he continued. “And the fact that my own actions have given people a good reason to doubt that makes me feel ashamed.”

But, riddle me this. If the Junior Senator from Minnesota was really about being a champion of women why didn't he apologize to his victim before he got outed for doing being just another predator.

I will say that the plethora of Democrat and Republican Senators who've spoken out on this topic and demanded that the Ethics committee investigate finally got it right because the point is that it took all this crap for him to show any remorse and try actually to minimize his actions by claiming to be that champion of women who despises men who act exactly like he did.

BTW since he's been talked about as a potential Presidential Candidate do you expect people on the other side of the political spectrum to ignore Franken's actual actions which went far beyond the locker room talk Trump is being pilloried for.

I'm not making any apologies for Franken. Just pointing out that I don't see the press ignoring it. Sure, he'll have his apologists. So does Roy Moore. So does Trump. Maybe not Harvye Weinstein.

I'm half-expecting half of my ex-girlfriends accusing me of something.

It's ok raydan. As far as I know you are not a politician/actor/director/sports figure/reality show host so the tabloids won't pay any attention anyway.

The media's in a feeding frenzy and they'll publish any crazy accusation right now. The only reason I have faith in the Franken accusation is that there's proof and he admits it. Otherwise I hate to say but I'd have to give him the benefit of the doubt until actual evidence or a confession came out.

Sarah Palin on sexual harassment: 'People know I'm probably packing' so they 'don't mess with me'

$1:

Sarah Palin (R) on Thursday condemned sexual harassment in the workplace, adding that she has not personally experienced it because people know she carries a weapon.

Rare there's a sentiment from Palin I support.

She's been the victim of the most disgusting sexual harassment any woman politics has faced.

That's very true, it's not like Hollywood didn't create this monster themselves.

No. Palin was the target of entirely deserved ridicule. "Sexual harassment" doesn't apply when it came to tearing apart her flaky and dangerous RWNJ ideas.

I posted them too, from the Palin porn parody of yore.

It's nice to be a nobody sometimes. Being a male celeb just got a lot trickier.

Ah, so if you don't like the woman in question it's okay to abuse her?

Stay classy.
