I think that might be a bit of projection, bub. It’s not at all obvious.

You say over and over again that he’s clearly not touching a breast in the picture, but that’s not true. It looks like he might be. And I think it’s entirely reasonable for her to conclude he did.

A+ troll game

...said Senator Moore.

what she claims to be happening in the photo is not happening in the photo - so why should we believe her that it is?

And thus is the status quo defended.

Dismissal, minimization and rationalization is also the current strategy for Roy Moore and his supporters.

“She is not a veteran” would have been sufficient. This and your other comments make it clear you’re trying to discredit her based on having been a Hooter’s waitress etc, and that is gross. Please stop it.

And frankly taking a short break for juvenile humor counts as self-care in the current environment.

Franken: Forces himself on woman over her objections.

She is a Hooter’s model who has worked for Fox for 16 years, including being a panelist on Hannity.

Yeah it sucks. I remember seeing this video 8 years ago and being incredibly impressed:

she is being very open to his apology when there is every opportunity to exploit this for personal gain. Ugh.

This has been another edition of Things You Shouldn’t Need To Be Told.

I’m not a psychologist, so here’s me doing some speculative psychology:

You admit he took at least one thing to far, I think it’s fair to say that was just the way he was thinking at that point. And “sexed up USO show” isn’t an excuse for it.

He trotted out the “I don’t remember it like that” excuse and I think he’s lying. She said he groped her, and even though she was asleep at the time I believe her Hannity-supporting ass over the suddenly amnesiac Franken.

Please don’t be obtuse.

How about tacking an “if she requests it” on the end of it?
