(14,072 posts)Leeann Tweeden may have had some imaginary line that Al Franken crossed. But watch the videos from that USO tour. She does not accuse Franken of doing anything more to her than multiple other people were doing, and she was participating. If Al Franken crossed some imaginary line she had, there is no way he could have known that in advance, and lots of activity to imply that he wasn't crossing any line. He has apologized if he did cross such a line. There are plenty of reasons to doubt the truthfulness of her allegations.
Franken has already denied the allegations of the accuser that said in 2006 he chased her around demanding a kiss.
As for him "groping" some women years ago when they took a photo together, I doubt he can claim that he never touched a woman in a way she found offensive but she never told him that at the time.
