Al Franken Resigns: Democrats Fail the GOP Sexual Harassment Test

Been away for a day and a half. Could not find that this excellent piece by Dr. GS Potter regarding the Dem Senators Franken Debacle has been posted.

Highly recommended. 10-15 minute read.

After you read it you may find you feel the same way I do:

I think we should ask Governor Dayton of MN to put a hold on naming a replacement. Franken has not actually resigned. He said last Thursday, in his speech, he will resign sometime during the next few weeks.

Senator Franken needs to be given the opportunity to clear his name. He needs apologies from all 33 of those turncoat Dem Senators. He needs to be restored and welcomed to continue on, for the next five years of his term that he duly earned, as the junior senator from the state of Minnesota.

"Al Franken Resigns: Democrats Fail the GOP Sexual Harassment Test. Again.

The Republican party is aggressively testing their abilities to pick off Democratic Congressmen with claims of sexual misconduct while simultaneously blazing a trail for a known child molester to take a Senate seat.

The Democrats, in response, are letting them.

Correction: The Democrats are doing more work to allow the Republican party to unseat their House and Senate leaders than they are doing to get their own Democratic candidates elected. Rather than defend Al Franken and his Senate seat from GOP attacks, they joined in. Rather than clarify the boundaries between false accusations and true trauma, they further blurred the lines between acceptable behavior and criminal behavior for political gain. Rather than defend women and their own party from attacks by pussy grabbers and pedophiles, they are leaving us on the political battleground to assert superiority on the moral highground.

It is completely inexplicable.

The Democratic strategy to eat their own no matter what the accusation, no matter how little evidence is presented, and no matter who calls for removal could not be more harmful to women, the Democratic Party or the nation."
