Too bad he can't time travel back to those hearings. pnwmom Apr 2019 #2

Yep. Too bad. Glad he has been working on the right side for a while. WeekiWater Apr 2019 #3

He still hasn't apologized to Anita Hill. He could start there. n/t pnwmom Apr 2019 #4

I take a different view than you. WeekiWater Apr 2019 #6

Anita has made it clear she'd like an apology. Strange that he won't try to make amends with her. n/ pnwmom Apr 2019 #8

You have made it clear you would like to hear the apology. I get it. NT WeekiWater Apr 2019 #9

No, I'd like to hear HER say she was satisfied with whatever he said to her pnwmom Apr 2019 #13

He should apologize to Hill when Harris, Warren, Sanders, and Gillibrand apologize to Al Franken LongtimeAZDem Apr 2019 #11

There is absolutely no comparison between those situations. pnwmom Apr 2019 #12

I accept his good work without making demands for apologies. That is not to ignore his flaws. I get that you have been waiting decades. I have been watching his body of work along the way.

One of the eight women complaining about Franken was a Democratic staffer in the House. The Senators did the right thing.

And 32 Democratic Senators signed that Franken letter that same day. You have a selective memory.

… it is never the victim's fault. While not as common, males can be sexually harassed by females. Also, the genders can be the same.
