So? You never verbally abused anyone? What is that to you?You saw what fraken did. You didn’t see what porter did. Two totally different situations. Again, you’ve never had an argument? If you did, you are no different than porterI find two ex-wives and one ex-girlfriend telling the same story to be evidence. We're talking about whether he should be in the White House. Jail is a different discussion.
What's unfortunate is how this standard by the media is only for one party while Democrats are held to no standard.
Franken would still be in the US Senate other than that he botched his handling of the accusations. All he had to do was hunker down and ride it out, and he didn't. He seemed to grasp that at the end, but he couldn't undo what he'd already said
Franken had pictures of him groping a women - he was in the act. Quite a different situation.
Porter was forced to resign not because the evidence was compelling, but because the Gestapo press could use it as a club to harm the administration.
We have become a nation governed by demagoguery - it is a dangerous proposition. There are no safeguards against this, it is the Salem witch trials on a national level.
Just want to be sure you realize your point on Frankin supports my point, it doesn't contradict it. Frankin was a Democrat and the press was protecting him. If he'd simply ridden it out a little longer, the story would have been gone.
The press only reported on the Rice / Slick meeting for 12 days. Frankin wasn't a politician and didn't know how to play the game.
I find three accusers to be sufficient to believe that the guy is at a minimum verbally abusive to his partners, which sickens me. I just want Democrats held to the same standard. And they are held to no standard by Democrats.
The particularly pathetic ones are the ones like Coyote, OldLady and Bodecea who claim to support women, yet only support leftist women and hang the rest out to dry. They do support on the other hand leftist men.
The thing is that there's actual abuse out there, and they are protecting them by turning all accusations into a left/right issue.
I look at Porter and ask if I believe him. His party isn't part of that question. And the answer is no, I don't believe him. Just like I didn't believe Frankin
No one is criticizing Porter because they think he had an argument with anyone. That's what you thought was the issue?
And we're discussing White House jobs, we're not discussing criminal proceedings. Not even civil proceedings
