And that was exactly my point. Just because a woman doesn't say no doesn't mean it isn't sexual assault.
He supposedly jammed his tongue in her mouth and she didn't say no to that either.

I cannot imagine the emotional trauma she must be going through. I've been there. Once in college I passed out and someone drew a ***** on my face with a sharpie.

what's really tasty about that (oh yeah, me too), is when you don't notice until you drive home the next morning...

If you woke up with that on your face, it's likely that a lot worse was done to you and they just never showed you the pics.

he'll check himself into rehab for gropers if any more of his victims go public.
Quote:Franken: ‘I cannot speculate’ if more harassment accusations will surface
An "embarrassed" and "ashamed" Sen. Al Franken, D-Minn., apologized to supporters and the women who say he groped them in a brief appearance on Monday outside his office on his first day back in the Senate since the accusations became public.
"I just want to again say I am sorry. I know there are no magic words I can say to regain your trust, I know that's going to take time," he said. "I hope that starting work today I can do that."
Franken told reporters he did not know if more allegations would surface.
"If you had asked me two weeks ago if any woman would come forward with any allegation like this, I would have said no," the senator said. "I cannot speculate."
He continued: "This has been a shock, and it's been extremely humbling. I am embarrassed. I feel ashamed. What I'm going to do is I'm going to start my job, I'm going (to) go back to work, I'm going to work as hard as I can."

Aint nothin gonna happen to him. He'll be headed to the Senate ethics comittee, were he'll recieve a stern look and a firm slap on the hand. Do you honestly think today's toady media will even give it coverage. Not likely. These boys live by a different set of rules than you and me. But c'mon America, watch some more American Idol or whatever insane drivel that makes you some of the stupidest people in the world.
