Also, I want to stress that SATIRIZING the act of groping, as Franken had, can actually be construed to be a good thing, especially when the woman being "mock groped" was mock gropping too (she had, just hours earlier, grabbed the ass of a bass player on stage).

Franken's satire and Kavanaugh's attempted rape are opposites.

What I'm saying is "get a brain America!"
