Senator Al Franken Won´t Resign From Senate: Will Spend Thanksgiving ´doing a lot of reflecting´

I'm sure Senator Franken would offer to resign if President Trump offered to resign at the same time
I'm sure he wouldn't. But why should Franken behaving honorably depend on anything Trump does? Is that how honorable men behave?

No, they don't. They do the right thing regardless of what others do. They certainly don't put conditions on behaving honorably.
 
most of those on the right want him to resign because the left is CONSTANTLY calling for people to resign, be disqualified or fired for not following their line of thinking.

if you're "side" is going to set some arbitrary standard of ethics they damn well need to follow it and it's painfull obvious the left is not doing so. they have taken identity politics to horrible extremes and now WHO people are is punishable moreso than WHAT people do. someone they like can do something and nothing. not a peep. someone they don't like does it, OFF WITH THEIR HEAD.

so now when these occasions come up to rub their smug-noses in it, the right will do so and demand equal punishment for equal offenses and suddenly ANYTHING related to "sexual offenses" is now an extreme crime for the biggest reason of to hit the left back with them.

this mindset puts us in a perpetual state of "payback" we can't seem to get out of and it sucks.

Lotta words just to set up a strawman that can't stand up.

Unfortunately for you I already cited the example of Larry Craig. In both cases I wanted to know what the basis would be for resigning. In neither case did I get an answer, because there isn't one.

David Vitter's another example. While Craig didn't run again, Vitter did. That put his judgment in the hands of his constituents, which is where it belongs. As it will be if and when Franken runs again, as it will be for Moore next month.

Period.
you can't just put your dick away and talk to people w/o the digs and insults can you?

nothing changes the fact far too many people on both sides scream OFF WITH THEIR HEADS at every little move away from the social norm THEY hold dear to themselves.

the left did it for a long time and still does it and now the right is in a payback mode where they will defend their assholes cause the left defended theirs for 8 years and somewhere along the way right and wrong got skewed to preferences.

Once AGAIN trying to give the same strawman an erection. It ain't happening.

There is no action by "the left" or "the right". Those are collective sweeping generalization fallacies.
I fly solo. I don't give a flying fuck what somebody you lump me in with thinks-- that's your problem, not mine.
like i said - the way you talk to people dictate how the conversations go.

you just like to be an asshole to people. dunno why, don't care.

later.

Hey, don't insult people's intelligence tossing out blanket fallacies....... and you won't get called on them.
Ain't rocket surgery.

What "blanket fallacy" is that?

stereotypes, mass accusations based on limited behaviors - you know. the things common in here when one side says the entire OTHER side is ALWAYS full of shit.

He didn't do that. He referred to Pogo's behavior, and on one else's.

well now you lost me cause it was my convo w/pogo and he was talking directly to me about how *he* thought i over-generalized. now it looks like you're saying pogo was referring to his own behavior and that just leaves me befuddled at what you're reading vs. what i am.
 
Then there is this a picture of Leanne Tweeden with Franken a couple of three years after he "traumatized" her ...in 2006

Yup, he's doing some 'Reflecting.' Therefore everything's just fine. I'm pretty shocked that even Democrats would be on board with such Bullshite. If you just 'Reflect' afterward, you can harass and molest all the women you want? Crazy stuff. :cuckoo:
 
Excuse me, i'm gonna go 'Reflect' on Franken's 'Reflecting.'... :9:

There, i'm done.

He sexually assaulted her, asshole.

Remember when Anita Hill followed Clarence Thomas to his new job after he supposedly sexually harassed her? What was your excuse for that?
 
I just submitted a post where I predicted exactly this. The Republicans are assembling the circular firing squad while the Dims circle the wagon. Not a single Dim called for Franken to resign. There you have the double standard in spades.


A spokesperson for Sen. Al Franken, a Democrat from Minnesota, told the Minneapolis Star Tribune that 'no' the embattled senator would not resign over allegations that he fondled and kissed a woman without her permission 11 years ago.

'He is spending time with his family in Washington, D.C., and will be through the Thanksgiving holiday,' the aide told the newspaper. 'And he's doing a lot of reflecting.'

. . . . . . . . .

Franken's initial statement noted that he did not remember the USO skit happening that way.

A second statement was more apologetic, as Franken that he would cooperate in a Senate Ethics Committee investigation into his behavior.
The Senate Ethics Committee is a joke. Dim senators are positively mocking us. They are giving us the Bronx cheer. I just don't understand how anyone can be stupid enough to vote for these slimy shameless reptiles.

has Donald resigned yet?

roy Moore?

quiet, nutter

You are correct, he's full of shit.
Fingerboy follows exchanges about as well as he finds his own mouth with that spoonful of jelly.
 
liberals have trained their base to respect nothing and expect everything. that's why Creepy Al won't resign.

Why should "Creepy Al" resign? You live two thousand miles from Minnesota --- it's not your concern.

Should Doornail Rump resign? Because he did exactly the same thing.

>> We walked into that room alone, and Trump shut the door behind us. I turned around, and within seconds he was pushing me against the wall and forcing his tongue down my throat. <<​

Double standard much?
