Al Franken must pay for Trump's sins ...

because Democrats have their heads up their asses.

The spineless cowards calling for Franken's resignation are the ones who should be resigning.

5. he, or whoever orchestrated this, certainly did

You can't go wrong by assuming that Democrats will form a circular firing squad at the slightest provocation. It's cute, the way we keep hoping that Republicans will be impressed with our high moral character. THAT HAS NEVER HAPPENED AND IT NEVER, EVER WILL.

From what I've read, the final straw yesterday for the Democrats who started the snowballing calls for him to resign was an accusation that is the only one he has flat-out denied.

To me, that suggests that he knows that incident is absolutely untrue (yet here we are today anyway), and his previous statements that he crossed a line and made some women uncomfortable was a decent and respectful acknowledgement, as a liberal man, that he doesn't have the right to say what is and isn't uncomfortable for a woman. That didn't mean he groped anybody with any kind of icky intent, only that he didn't want to say "those women are overreacting." And now his decency has come to this.

I'm so upset. And I feel so bad for him. I believe that he is truly a good guy.

6. We also lost a key voice in the Net Neutrality movement.

I believe that was one of Al's biggest platforms if I'm not mistaken. What pisses me off about this whole thing is that Trump has not been punished for his sex crimes. Roy Moore has not been punished for his crimes. You know who has been punished for their crimes? Al Franken and Anthony Weiner. Both democrats. This is a hit job.
