what you're doing is false equivalency, a logical fallacy, and it's also a form of taking control when only used against criticism of one group and never the other.

jesus christ, you must be dense.

i'm arguing that both sides are merely one in the same. both sides are guilty of having sexual predators. i am not criticizing one group and not the other. where in this topic have i only criticized one side but not the other?

When was the last time a celebrity got accused of rape or sexual assault and had their name cleared?

That Rolling Stone campus rape debacle, unless you specifically want a celebrity.

I specifically want a celebrity. That is why the word celebrity was used in that sentence. This topic is about someone famous in Al Franken.

Damn.
All I got is Fatty Arbuckle, from like a hundred years ago. Let's see what happens with Cosby next spring.

Just to get rid of the yinyang ****

Maybe we'll get someone who is actually good in his place.

Given that the political calculus means a democrat appointment anyway, it's strange that Franken hasn't resigned already.

Keep in mind that the only person we know with any certainty, Leann Tweeden, accepted his apology and said she didnt think he should be made to step down.

About time. It shouldn't have taken 6 people saying this for it to be enough for him to step down. One accusation should be enough to end a career.

An accusation isn't proof.

can't believe over half the users in CE still believe in the right vs. left, democrat vs. republican dichotomy. the two sides are in on it together and are on the same side, the whole left vs. right is meant to divide us.

we should only unify when there's a republican president right

Jesus Christ for a supposed intellectual, you seem to lack basic reading and comprehension skills. How could you have possibly misinterpreted the entire point of that post to the point of thinking the exact opposite of what the post said?
