Breaking- senator Al Franken to resign tomorrow 🚨

[skeeter]

Why not? Expecting sainthood from our elected reps is delusional. I am very concerned that they do their jobs well, but I don't care much about their personal lives.

I would not fund payouts for their sexual misdeeds from taxpayers' money. I would not pay their legal bills,, if sued for sexual harassment of assault. Let them fair for themselves.

Not all districts expect a puritan. Let them elect who they want.

   

My point is the left's brand is based upon accusing their opponents of being misogynists, racists, homophobes, etc.

How will that sound to the great masses when they openly tolerate an obvious one (and more) within their own ranks?

Thanks @LMAO ...

This is getting weird - two guys agreeing on something which does not exist: An answer.

Once again:  What precedent has been set?

I would imagine this is in response to the gripes by the CBC about Conyers going out so fast...and they have pics of Franken.  Failure to treat this eruption with some racial parity would maybe result in Black Democrats wandering from the Plantation, and the Dems can't have that.

I'm sure that's part of it. It also seems clear that the rats intend to Continue using Moore As a fund raising tool as well as an anchor around the neck of the GOP. Brand.

It will be interesting to see if the rats in the Senate go after Moore Aggressively or if they let the GOP establishment do the deed.

Will you publicly release the papers when the audit is done?

Audit hell... pretty sure it is 10 to 20 at club fed.

Rats by any other name.

Look, I'm not saying I agree or disagree, but dammit, she answered you.

Seriously?  Are you satisfied that a mere charge of any definition of sexual harassment can cost someone their job?  Would you think this might necessitate an investigation and an opportunity to confront your accusers??  @IsailedawayfromFR

If you're not satisfied with the answer then ask for clarification of one point or another about it, but this is clearly an answer, even to me, and everybody knows I *never* stick up for RiV.

I can no longer function in the Senate and therefore I have decided that maybe I might resign sometime in the future if I decide to at that time.

If that is an answer, then he/she/it is incorrect on it being a precedent.  Franken never resigned so how is this a precedent for something?

Even if he did, this is not a singular case, and he/she/it knows it.  Others have gone through unsubstantiated allegations and had to bite the turf.

I always use HSI as I got cussed out once for gender confusion and will keep it gender neutral.

Yes.....unless I decide to run for President in 2024. In that case I will keep them private.

Or you can say they never existed.

I just got on this thread and I have no idea what people are arguing about.

Can someone 'splain it to me in a few words; I have a short attention span.

Poster says 'Sets a Precedent'

When you question what precedent is being set, just garbage comes out. 

Can't discuss garbage.

[Polly Ticks]

Well apparently someone set a precedent for bold-face type, so at least we've got that going for us.

[roamer_1]

Hot chick.  Boobies.

Well, that would be me it would seem.  Replied to Once-Ler ..bolded part of his post... and now. 

Opps, wondered if it was everyone or just me... guess I know now. Gotta' watch those "Fantom" powers I guess.

If tech is curious 'Bout this bug, get in touch. I have tried to change my post... all I get is  a "no subject matter" warning in red.

I got the same error when I posted the close-bold-face tag which seems to have ended the bold thingy.  I had to delete the icon at the end of the subject line to get it to post.

So, if you use <b  and close it with </B   you get  perma bold.

LOL  Nope, my good deed for the decade is done.  Besides, I could not pretend to explain you and do you justice.
