so here's the thing for ME on the franken mess coming from a COMPLETELY different world view: i've been in theatre for 25 years. i have dozens of pictures like this . implicating men. implicating women. my friends, my bffs, my frenemies, people i seriously hate. all of us have red eyes and all of us are making ill advised joke usually accompanied by a lot alcohol. i totally recognize that picture.

that's not an excuse. just a thing that we did.

(also, just fyi i am a woman...)

Agreed. It's completely reprehensible that women have to deal with this shit

I think it's pretty obvious that the Clintons murdered him because they knew the only person with a motive was Moore.

Usually they're more careful. This was kind of sloppy work. But they're under a lot of pressure now that they're both going to Gitmo to enhancedly interrogated.

Where satire is concerned, I'm at a bit of a disadvantage in that I'm quite literal-minded. Poe's Law and all that. But I assume you're kidding around.

Hay, wait a minute. Is that a short-person joke?

I think it's the difference between being a comedian making a bad joke, and being a sexual predator. If given the choice of having a man grab my tits, or have a man pretend to grab my tits, I'll take choice B any day of the week.

I'm shocked how many people are saying "I'm through with Franken" because ONE Fox employee says he tried to kiss her. That's a LITTLE different than trying to rape a teenage girl.

Yes, there's nothing even slightly suspicious about that, though.

I would argue that Trump was the straw that broke the camel's back.

He got elected President even after admitting it. Trump was the last creeper to get by the goalie. Bill O'Reilly, Roger Ailes all happened before Weinstein.

Arguably when they tried to highroad and/or politically weaponize Weinstein, that busted shit wide open.

"Oh, so you DO care about this now? GUESS IT IS TIME FOR ALL THE BURNING TO START!"
