Remember she claimed she couldn't stand to be around him after the 2006 kiss.

(14,157 posts)And she said she was not an actor.
Hmm, She is either a very good actor, or a liar. Or both.

(28,749 posts)Absolutely nothing, you dont know what was going through her mind, you dont know what was said at that event.

(40,248 posts)i think things were a lot different then. Trump was still donating to and hanging around democrats.

(8,818 posts)Why would she go to an event honoring him is she disliked him?
LisaL
(44,985 posts)Sure doesn't look like she is giving him the cold shoulder, does it?

(22,971 posts)Furthermore, Trump was a Democrat a the time, and the Clintons did indeed consider Trump a political "friend." Politicians, and even socialites, attend functions with people they dislike all the time. Welcome to the real world.

(13,671 posts)Not. She attended an event in his honor. Nobody forced her to attend.
rainlillie
(1,095 posts)The damn point is... she showed up to honor a man that she claimed she couldn't stand to be around. Men lie women lie.

(68,825 posts)she is a Fox Girl...to still even believe one tiny bit of her obvious lies.

(28,095 posts)she would have found a reason not to attend an awards dinner honoring him.

(34,661 posts)What? Hunch she wants to take a hike away from all this attention. Is it burning the backside?
greeny2323
(590 posts)We have a right to be skeptical because of her politics and because there has been no corroborating pattern of evidence.
It weird how some who are ALWAYS rooting against the guy regardless of the facts. Each case needs to be evaluated independently.
If more evidence comes out supporting her then so be it but it hasn't happened yet.

(1,095 posts)People of all genders lie. I want the investigation to go forward and bring in some witnesses.

(4,159 posts)It was not written specifically so Al could kiss Tweeden (2006) as she claimed in one of her statements.

(35,454 posts)you can tell she was traumatized for life. Look he is pretending to pinch her breasts, I am shocked.

Question: Who will be handing out the awards at this year's RW Lecher ceremony?

(28,795 posts)her big American breasts?
Just as the one on the plane did?
He just cant stop!
Kajun Gal
(1,907 posts)She doesn't want an ethics commission inquiry because she knows her fake news truth will come out. She is fake. THIS is what fake news is. Got her a book deal too? Nope. She is only trying to make a dime! It's a BS story!

(14,562 posts)They performed it in 2003. She claims that he wrote the script on the fly in 2006 just to kiss her. Also in the script is that she catches onto it and calls a guy up from the audience to kiss him.
She also said she was so repulsed by him she avoided him and turned her back on him when she bumped into him at an event. Now we find out she went to an event where he was the guest of honor.
Now we know why AL called for a complete and thorough investigation.

(44,985 posts)Other than that, Al obviously didn't write the skit for Leeann as he was doing it in 2003.
mercuryblues
(14,562 posts)But it still doesn't negate the fact that Al had been doing the skit for many years that she claims he wrote just for her.

(7,911 posts)"says everything" or "says nothing" depends solely on the viewer. We all read our own meaning into it. In other words, since it can say anything, objectively, it says nothing. Just like a Rorschach image, it tells only what's on the viewer's mind, and carries no meaning independent of the viewer's preconceived wishes.

(7,911 posts)I don't believe much of anything without solid proof, especially something as subjective as a photograph presented without any context, like these two obviously good buddies:
It's pretty obvious what Putin is doing with his other hand, right? In other word, the photo shows you whatever you want to see.
bagelsforbreakfast
(1,427 posts)blue cat
(2,415 posts)That she didn't see him for years and then ignored him when she did see him. It doesn't look like she is ignoring him if she attended an event in his honor. Just saying..
yardwork
(61,795 posts)The photo shows that Tweeden attended an event to honor Al Franken during the time period she now says she avoided him.
It's not about their facial expressions. The mere fact that she was there is the issue.
LanternWaste
(37,748 posts)The best thing to do is trivialize the photograph and invalidate all opinions associated with it.
Only then we may continue with our narrative uninterrupted by the inconvenience of new data, and proclaim any new evidence far too subjective.

(7,188 posts)Look, we must take these accusations seriously, but we still need to use our common sense.
Look at the totality of the circumstances - the photos, the statements, what the person said at the time, the circumstances, the context, etc. rather than just one photo.
