Doesn't speak well for them, does it? Please produce evidence that they were and that she did it out of naked ambition. Remember to include links to credible sites to prove all your allegations.

She believed a lying birther over Franken wellst0nev0ter Jan 2019 #50
Plus 7 other women Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #55
Ah it's you again wellst0nev0ter Jan 2019 #60
Prove your accusation Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #65
You're going to believe a birther? wellst0nev0ter Jan 2019 #69
I'm not going to call 7 women Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #70
Playing the race card, are we? wellst0nev0ter Jan 2019 #74
So because they voted for someone you don't like Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #76
Yep, all those senators were wrong wellst0nev0ter Jan 2019 #89
They never claimed they were assaulted Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #91
So Franken never actually assaulted them wellst0nev0ter Jan 2019 #95
No one ever said he did. Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #97
So what did he do? Take a photo? wellst0nev0ter Jan 2019 #99
If you don't know what he did Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #111
With an ethics investigation, perhaps? wellst0nev0ter Jan 2019 #135
You really believe that the GOP Senators Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #140
So the only fair thing was to throw Franken out? wellst0nev0ter Jan 2019 #142
Life is unfair sometime. Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #149
A GOP controlled hearing wellst0nev0ter Jan 2019 #157
A GOP controlled hearing would be a circus Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #158
Franken asked for the hearing wellst0nev0ter Jan 2019 #160
After the first accusation Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #161
Read the thread wellst0nev0ter Jan 2019 #162
Have Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #164
How haven't the holes been poked? wellst0nev0ter Jan 2019 #166
Because there is no evidence to support Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #167
Nope, you show in detail how his argument doesn't hold up. wellst0nev0ter Jan 2019 #168
I don't have to refute opinion Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #170
Prove that they are opinions wellst0nev0ter Jan 2019 #172
They are not? Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #173
I've already posted the links wellst0nev0ter Jan 2019 #174
Go ahead Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #178
And as usual Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #188
Well said. At least we know the new excuse they're resorting to is OnDoutside Jan 2019 #192
And at the same time they demand proof that Franken is innocent wellst0nev0ter Jan 2019 #193
Then just post the links that Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #194
Funny that.... OnDoutside Jan 2019 #199
i think the Black Death is more popular than she is. trueblue2007 Jan 2019 #251
Shouldn't you that be Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #195
Actually no. Shame on them for not thinking straight when Gillibrand showed naked ambition OnDoutside Jan 2019 #198
So they were just all blind followers? Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #200
Yes, it doesn't speak well for them. Not playing. Thing is, she is so overwhelmingly unpopular on OnDoutside Jan 2019 #206
So no links Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #215
If I was interested in playing, I would, but you're the one in the overwhelming minority on this OnDoutside Jan 2019 #231
Nothing wrong with being in the minority Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #233
Nothing wrong with it when you are in the right, but you aren't. You're standing up for OnDoutside Jan 2019 #235
That is your opinion Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #237
And I'm standing up against the lack of fairness for Al Franken. So we all can have our opinion. OnDoutside Jan 2019 #238
Never said that what happened to Franken Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #239
Oh, that's nice to hear. OnDoutside Jan 2019 #245
AL FRANKEN was NOT treated fairly at all. Guillibrand treated him with contempt. I can't forgive trueblue2007 Jan 2019 #253
Not treated fairly by over 30 Senators Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #254
Sadly, this is one where the Senators WRONGLY rushed ONLY for political expediency. But, LBM20 Jan 2019 #217
So all the other Senators Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #220
You prove they weren't lying / nt bitterross Jan 2019 #81
So women don't deserve to be believed? Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #85
Yeah, their claims need to be investigated wellst0nev0ter Jan 2019 #90
So you are refuting the whole Me Too movement Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #92
Why are you caping for trumpanzees? wellst0nev0ter Jan 2019 #94

It's been posted here a million times. Drahthaardogs Jan 2019 #116
SPOT ON CORRECT! Franken's "accusers" where Trumpists and nutjobs pumped up by right wing media or LBM20 Jan 2019 #212
All those you mention went through an investigative process Bradshaw3 Jan 2019 #102
Not at first Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #113
Wrong, they all went through an investigative process Bradshaw3 Jan 2019 #117
I'm not misrepresenting anything Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #118
Yes you did Bradshaw3 Jan 2019 #132

You keep inserting those names into the discussion Bradshaw3 Jan 2019 #152
But they are linked Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #155
Oooooo, now Tweeden is "OBVIOUSLY" a RW hack Drahthaardogs Jan 2019 #153
No that was in regard to Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #156
DON'T YOU DARE TWIST MY WORDS THAT WAY! THAT'S NOT AT ALL WHAT I SAID. bitterross Jan 2019 #120
That is the standard for criminal prosecution Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #121
I'm not debating you. You are only interested in scoring points bitterross Jan 2019 #126
So because Tweeden was backed by Roger Stone Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #137
I knew you'd take one statement and run with it. Ignoring the overall message. bitterross Jan 2019 #229
I agree with you about Franken's intent Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #230
It needed to be properly investigated and vetted. Many were LAME and some confirmed TRUMPISTS! What LBM20 Jan 2019 #204
Franken did get screwed Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #211
Yup. It was HYSTERIA and the timing of the thing, and it is an important lesson of history that LBM20 Jan 2019 #223
It is YOUR burden to prove they were telling the truth. The accused is the one who gets due process! LBM20 Jan 2019 #209
I can't Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #218
It was political shit at the height of a hysterical moment in our history. Bottom line, THEY have LBM20 Jan 2019 #224
Sorry but I can't buy Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #225
He wanted a full investigation, unlike any other predator ever. sfwriter Jan 2019 #129
Do you really thing the GOP Senators Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #139
No, it would turn out like Benghazi... sfwriter Jan 2019 #141
Unfortunately, I doubt that would have happened Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #148

Like Warren, Harris and Sanders? Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #75

Must be why she won re-election with Trumpocalypse Jan 2019 #58
She isn't inspiring either. I can't see voters getting excited about her LeftInTX Jan 2019 #169
That is enitrely possible..: brooklynite Jan 2019 #171
And she burned her Clinton bridges in cynical style, won't help her. OnDoutside Jan 2019 #48
