She said it was OK to kiss during the rehearsal. Her Quote:

“He repeated that actors really need to rehearse everything and that we must practice the kiss,” Tweeden wrote. “I said ‘OK’ so he would stop badgering me. "

And this hypocrisy is the point--and, as in some of the other cases, the impetus for the parties coming forward now.

However....make no mistake, I have no use for Franken, but carrying on and crying horseball tears over a forced, sloppy kiss that happened 11 years ago, is nuts.

He's toast. There's a lot more about him that Hannity just went through.

Yep, and in addition to all this horrible, horrible totally illegal stuff men don't even respect women they claim they want to date. Nowadays, men bypass the dating ritual entirely. It's somehow gotten to, "Wanna hook up?" LOL. Completely unreal.

As far as Franken is concerned - try to prove you are not a hypocrite. People are giving these men plenty of opportunity to talk.

She was sleeping and his hands are definitely on her breasts. He's a pig and needs to resign.
