Trump commented on allegations against Alabama senate candidate Roy Moore, saying "he denies it. He totally denies it," and "we don't need a liberal Democrat in that seat."

Because they're all hands.

[Bacon-Magic glib reasonoid]

Britches doesn't like pre-posting the links huh?

[Chipper Morning Truthjammer]

Do you think they are calling him Britches yet at the Reason office?

[Bacon-Magic glib reasonoid]

I bet Robbo did it right after he saw one of you post it. I also bet he is getting tossed around like a rag doll among the "editors" and getting hazed daily. Poor guy probably does the links on time but they glued his enter button.

[Fist of Etiquette]

He looks like the type to hand out knuckle sandwiches, so maybe not.

[Bacon-Magic glib reasonoid]

Fist...are you the victim here? Have they been taking your lunch money and harassing you?We got your back, don't let the Jacket do that to you.

Well then.

Former Blackwater head, Erik Prince, will testify before House panel looking into any collusion between the Russian government and the Trump campaign.

Because Blackwater's always been an open book.

Blackwater's always been an open book.

Hence, it's Academi-c.

Technically all true but I don't like him anyway.. er.. it. Wait. Him! Both.

[Citizen X - #6]

"Should Al Franken resign?" is the wrong question according to Masha Gessen writing the New Yorker.

You're gonna make me click a New Yorker link to find out what the right question is?

[Red Tony]

She never answers it.

[Red Tony]

All she says is "well we gotta be worried about male power" and "Trump is totally worse than Franken because he had more power over women."

She doesn't bring up a lack of pictures of Trump going all "honk honk smells good" on an unconscious woman.

[damikesc]

All she says is "well we gotta be worried about male power" and "Trump is totally worse than Franken because he had more power over women."

Which is why the Right found Trump not-that-controversial. We've seen Democrats do demonstrably more than simply mention that women let celebrities do things to them sexually without much of a fight (which the last few weeks are demonstrating) and still portray themselves as friends and allies of feminists.

Trump said women would let celebrities grab their pussies. What part of this is in doubt? There are plenty of women who'd HAPPILY let celebrities do whatever they wanted, sexually, to them.

...and that so many women defend the men who claim to support them while doing it shows how little most women give a shit.

[Bubba Jones]

What we have learned is that female celebrities routinely get their pussies grabbed and haven't complained at all, until now.

[Bubba Jones]

Does she think that Trump becomes Senator if Franken is removed?

[Citizen X - #6]

Yeah, i read it. There isn't a right question, i guess. Everybody just shut up and bask in the warmth of your own wokeness!

[Red Tony]

...are you trying to tell us that SJWs piss the bed?

[Half-Virtue, Half-Vice]

Questions are just for profit money schemes of the patriarchy.

[Diane Reynolds (Paul.)]

It's that... that sprawling New Yorker shit.

[CE]

It's worse than that. The author is saying "what difference, at this point, does it make?" And apparently thinks punishing liberals for past misdeeds is not worth anything. The author is silent on whether conservatives should be punished for past misdeeds.

[Chipper Morning Truthjammer]

Should Al Franken design?

[Red Tony]

Should Al Frankenstein?

[Rich]

Should Al Frankenfish whine?

[Red Tony]

Should Al, Frank, and Phish dine?

[Chipper Morning Truthjammer]

Only if Trey is invited as well.

[Chipper Morning Truthjammer]

Should Al Franken punchline?

[dantheserene]

If so, it would almost be a first. I liked his bit on the "Al Franken Decade", but that's about it from his career.
Oh, yeah. He was kind of funny in a bit role as a stoner baggage handler in Trading Places.

[Chipper Morning Truthjammer]

Should Al Franken repine?

[Unicorn Abattoir]

Should the Edgar Winter Group re-release Al Franken Resign?

[AlmightyJB]

EWG Frankenstein was my first 45.

[Rat on a train]

How can this help impeach Trump?

"Should Al Franken resign?" is the wrong question according to Masha Gessen writing the New Yorker.

Should ever even been elected?

[Unicorn Abattoir]

Mugabe resigned. You don't expect all the Marxists to resign on the same day, do you?

[Red Tony]

Yes.

[Unicorn Abattoir]

Optimist.

[Red Tony]

Harvard faces DOJ probe over whether it's admissions policy discriminates against Asians.

It does, but they don't care, because they totes hate Asians, what with their "delicious food" and "strong academic skills" and "succeeding in a racist society."

[Rat on a train]

That succeeding thing is the deepest cut. They need to take a dive to help attack whitey.

[BestUsedCarSales]

Mark Levin is headed to Fox News.

Now is an important time to make people aware that there is no discernable difference between a Mark Levin monologue and a Master Shake Monologue.

[Red Tony]

All you proved is that everything is hilarious when it comes out of Master Shake's mouth.

[BestUsedCarSales]

A completely valid thing to prove that does no disservice to my argument.

[Unlabelable MJGreen]

Whoa. That is freaky.

[Ska]

This is amazing.

"Should Al Franken resign?" is the wrong question according to Masha Gessen writing the New Yorker.

Al Franken, resign should he?

[Rhywun]

There is no try.

"Who would Jesus have resign?"

The Pope?

John Lasseter Takes Leave of Absence From Disney/Pixar, Apologizes for Unwanted Hugs

Lasseter is taking a leave as several prominent Hollywood figures are grappling with allegations of sexual harassment. His name has continued to be mentioned privately, with a number of former Pixar employees telling Variety that he has behaved inappropriately and describing a culture at the company as "toxic" and "sexist" for women. His leave was first reported by the Hollywood Reporter.

Trump commented on allegations against Alabama senate candidate Roy Moore, saying "he denies it. He totally denies it," and "we don't need a liberal Democrat in that seat."

Didn't read the whole quote, but it doesn't really sound that defensy.

[Red Tony]

That sounds fairly close to what John says he's saying about Moore. (Not what he's actually saying, but what he says he's saying.)

[Diane Reynolds (Paul.)]

But what he says he's saying is different from what we say he says he's saying but won't admit to saying.

[Diane Reynolds (Paul.)]

Here is why Franken didn't do anything wrong.

When he kissed Tweeden without her consent, during a rehearsal on a U.S.O. tour, she was able to, according to her description, push her assailant away, tell him, "Don't ever do that to me again," and walk away?hurt and disgusted, to be sure, but not in fear for her future.

[Dan M.]

It's the rank partisanship of the Clinton investigation, but worse.

[Bubba Jones]

Except for that part about the degrading photos sent to all her colleagues on the trip.

[Stormy Dragon]

Don't believe Roy Moore's accusers? Then listen to Moore

Specifically Moore's account of how he met his now-wife, Kayla Moore.

First, read his book. In it, Moore describes how he met his wife at a Christmas party hosted by friends. He would have been 37. She was 23.

"Many years before, I had attended a dance recital at Gadsden State Junior College," Moore wrote. "I remembered one of the special dances performed by a young woman whose first and last names began with the letter 'K.' It was something I had never forgotten. Could that young woman have been Kayla Kisor?"

Moore later determined that it was.

"Long afterward, I would learn that Kayla had, in fact, performed a special dance routine at Gadsden State years before," he wrote.

[?]

In an interview Moore gave earlier this year, he gave a similar account, but for one detail.

"It was, oh gosh, eight years later, or something, I met her," Moore said. "And when she told me her name, I remembered 'K. K.,' and I said, 'Haven't I met you before?'"

It's a simple matter of subtraction. When Roy Moore first took notice of Kayla she would have been as young as 15.

[Azathoth!!]

Wow.

This could be a illustration of the process of 'grasping at straws'.

[Chipper Morning Truthjammer]

And when she told me her name, I remembered 'K. K.,'

I wonder what mnemonic device he used to remember that.

[Rich]

"Kice Kits"?

[Bacon-Magic glib reasonoid]

Knock Knock

[Rich]

"Performed a special dance", eh? Wink-wink-nudge-nudge!

[Unlabelable MJGreen]

It was Moore's birthday.

[Red Tony]

Is that why he was in his birthday suit?

[Diane Reynolds (Paul.)]

Jesus, Roy Moore is like 200 accusations down on the pile. I want up-to-date accusations. No more than 15 minutes old.

[Half-Virtue, Half-Vice]

Prolly diddling some girl as we speak.

[Diane Reynolds (Paul.)]

Prolly diddling was my nickname in gym class.

[Bacon-Magic glib reasonoid]

Diddling Prolly was mine.

[Red Tony]

Disgusting Armpit Hair was mine.

[Sevo]

"Don't believe Roy Moore's accusers? Then listen to Moore"

Stormy, if anyone doesn't, that crap you posted isn't going to change any minds.
Stormy: Specializing in innuendo for ever!

[Bubba Jones]

These people are unclear on the concept of small towns?

[Diane Reynolds (Paul.)]

Huh, I see CNN is still on old sexual harassment news. Man, they're an internet news agency, don't they realize there are new accusations coming in as I type this?

Kathy Griffin Goes On Unhinged Rant, Blames Fox News For Being Poor Now

[damikesc]

Don't play the "controversy" game if you're not very good at playing it.

[Inigo Montoya]

I clicked the link...

It's great to see The Crypt Keeper is still around and making the news. TV hasn't been the same for me since Tales from the Crypt ended.

As for Griffin, why wasn't she pictured in the article?

[Libertarian]

I don't have the patience to find and watch the original full video of the photo session, but I recall her saying something to the photograper, like, "well, John, you know this is going to ruin our careers, don't you?"

Kathy Griffin Goes On Unhinged Rant, Blames Fox News For Being Poor Now

What do you mean "poor"? Not being able to find work during the other days besides October 27th through 31st does not count as being "poor".

What? Oh, the dates. Yes, that's when they open all those Haunted House tours. They normally start hiring a week before for witches and mummies and unfunny Marxist comediennes.

[Libertarian]

She's 57 FFS. Surely she's managed to save a few million, what with several comedy albums, etc.

[Libertarian]

Only 80 comments for the P.M. links? What, did you reprobates blow your wad on the Lena Dunham thread (240 comments)?

[Half-Virtue, Half-Vice]

I blame Britches.

[Eidde]

Don't knock Al Franken, he's just as good a Senator as he is a comedian.

[Old Mexican's Speedos]

Trump commented on allegations against Alabama senate candidate Roy Moore, saying "he denies it. He totally denies it," and "we don't need a liberal Democrat in that seat."

That means the "Special Place" intended for child molesters is in the hell that is Washington, D.C.

At least according to the P...y Grabber-In-Chief himself.

"Should Al Franken resign?" is the wrong question according to Masha Gessen in the New Yorker.

The question should rather be "Should we feather him after being doused with tar, or before?"

[Tony]

I love Washington. The only problem with it are the creepy yokels who get elected to Congress.

[Bruce Majors]

Here's how socialism works, kids! In the private sector when a masher like O'Reilly gets too expensive in terms of settlements, the employer cans his ass. In the state sector, Congress uses taxpayer money to shush victims.

[Juice]

I was talking to this chick and she was about to say goodbye, so she came over to give me a little hug, and then out of nowhere she totally Frankens me. I mean, I'm not saying I'm against it. It's just a surprise, you know? To be totally Frankened out of the blue like that by an attractive woman. Of course, I would never Franken her. I wouldn't want to get in trouble for that sort of thing in the current environment.
