Franken himself asked for an investigation

[nini]

I wonder why the Republican controlled congress did not jump on that? hmm I just wonder.

Seems to me they'd jump at the change to disgrace him with the investigation.. but why should they if we're doing such on a good job doing that without his help. This is all way too suspicious for me. Putin is enjoying the shit out of this.

wake up people.. They're still playing games.. big one.

1. They've been mostly mum about Franken

Possibly because their own sins are so much worse. But still -- they never pass up a chance to make things difficult for Dems.

6. Why should Republicans do anything when Democrats will just do it for them?

7. Exactly -- it's the old cliche

When your opponent is digging their own grave, they don't need any help.

(I mangled that, but you know what I mean.)

2. well this asshole got an investigation

Blake Farenthold (R-TX) paid $84,000 to victim...went before Office of Congressional Ethics

HE'S STILL IN OFFICE.

3. yep

I don't want him there if he indeed do something. but he is entitled to the chances to face his accusers and clear his name if he didn't.

This is making me crazy.

4. Actually they did before Franken said the same

[angstlessk]

5. He WELCOMED an investigation.

And I hope he gets one!
