#MeToo for you but not for liberals

Jeezus, they are actually trying to resurrect Franken's career as a politician. The original article is such a joke it is amazing that editors allow that crap. Multiple women and photographic proof and they are now just saying Al was cracking a joke.
The hypocrisy from the left is astounding at times but this one takes the cake.
Dems don't like when their out of control and outside of due process hissy fits go against them.
It was just poor old Al trying to be funny.

Al Franken's sexual assault is what #MeToo was created to address and now liberals feel victimized by it
Democrats and liberals in the news media have found a sudden nuance when defining “sexual misconduct,” though the concept was conveniently a lot more clear-cut when a Supreme Court seat was on the line just 10 months ago.
The New Yorker’s Jane Mayer published a lengthy article Monday that all but clears disgraced former Sen. Al Franken, D-Minn., of the multiple accusations of sexual assault he faced in 2017, which ultimately led to his resignation from the Senate.
Mayer offers a sympathetic ear to Franken, who believes he was wrongly shafted. She gets testimonials from Senate Democrats who have since come to regret their initial demand that Franken resign. And she casts doubt on the allegation that started Franken’s pursuit because the victim, Leeann Tweeden, may have misremembered insignificant details about the time Franken forcibly kissed her and touched her breasts while she was unconscious.

Franken shouldn't have acquiesced in the first place.

I saw the photo but none of us knew any more than that other than what he was being accused of. The irony here is that his own party told him to step down and now they all regret it.
Do you think his party members regret the terrible lies and unfounded accusations they hurled at Kavanaugh? Not a chance.
This is all about politics. -

I’m on record saying Al Franken should have told everyone to fuck off. If you don’t want a comedian in the Senate, don’t elect one. Problem is the dems fucked themselves over and left no wiggle room. The schadenfreude was pretty fun though.
