I think he's a creep and should be condemned for his actions towards this woman.

However,

He repeated that actors really need to rehearse everything and that we must practice the kiss. I said ‘OK’ so he would stop badgering me. We did the line leading up to the kiss and then he came at me, put his hand on the back of my head, mashed his lips against mine and aggressively stuck his tongue in my mouth.

She consented to that kiss beforehand.

And so familiar. MOST of my women friends have been force-kissed or trick tongue kissed at least once. Makes it easy to believe it is true. "Stealing" a kiss....

I don't think they are excusing anything. I think they are being sarcastic. I may be wrong though.

I'm predicting Rachel Maddow and the other DNC apparatchiks in the MSM completely ignore this story. Just like they 100% ignored the corruption trial of Senator Menendex (D-NJ).

Here is an actual really good point.


some republican is accused of some whatever, and the sky is falling.


A democrat is on TRIAL for committing real crimes and its not even reported by the MSM. I bet more than half the country doesn't even know a democrat is on trial right now.

Here you go again. Let's dig up the Weinstein thread and see your stance on him. All of his victims consented too.

Default Liberals: Should Al Franken (D-MN) Resign?

So, we now have photographic proof of Al Franken (D-MN) pretending to or actually fondling a journalist's breasts while she was asleep.


This same journalist accuses the Democrat Senator of forcibly sticking his tongue down her throat during a skit rehearsal for a USO event.


Should Al Franken resign?


If you don't know who Al Franken is, he was on Saturday Night Live and stole his Senate seat from Norm Coleman when additional boxes of ballots mysteriously turned up at the last minute.

Unconscious? Are you serious? It's a comedy skit. She's pretending to be asleep. He's pretending to grope her -- a joke in bad taste, yes, but it's a USO show, meant for rowdy soldiers. She's a Playboy model wearing a uniform.
