This one hurts....

Full disclaimer...I’m a 46 year old married black male, farther of four...One daughter and three boys. I’m also the youngest of a four siblings, with three older sisters to a single mother.
I say all that to say this...I’ve seen and heard of more sexual misconduct and harassment then I care to remember and I’m not condoning anything that senator Franken ADMITTED to, but you can’t equate a “brush against a butt” or “against a breast” from anonymous sources to a man ADMITTING to “grabbing them by the pussy!!
I’m so disappointed in being a democrat today. I may be more disappointed today then I was happy the night President Obama was elected. I’m seriously sitting here thinking “What the hell are we about?!”
We have a group of senators that decided without a shred of evidence, just accusations, to FORCE someone to resign to show some fucking “high standards”?!
Senator Franken wasn’t given his due process and for that I will never forgiven the DNC to allow this shake down to happen. I’m just a every day Joe and see this was a fucking hit job and how the Dems fell for it just shows how gullible and stupid they are. We are at a tipping point in our country and the Dems decided to eat their own because of fucking peer pressure and Repubs are sitting back laughing their asses off.
