What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Al Franken ? Sen. Al Franken  who on Thursday admitted he had "crossed a line" with some women   was questioned about  his  behavior 18 years ago â by shock jock Howard Stern.
Stern asked  Franken   not yet a U.S. senator  if  he  had grabbed TV personality Kathie Lee Gifford's rear end during  his  radio show in 1999. A caller had prompted the question.
"She grabbed my ass "  Franken  responded.

When Stern later said that the former "Saturday Night Live" star did actually grab Gifford's rear   Franken  said  "You're not listening  because I did not grab  her  ass."
 Grabby Al Franken  admits  he  âcrossed lineâ with women
"I certainly did not touch  her  in any way to arouse or gratify "  Franken  would add.
Last week  the Minnesota lawmaker was accused of sexual misconduct by radio host Leeann Tweeden who said he forcibly kissed and groped  her  in 2006.
Another woman said  Franken  grabbed her rear end when they posed for a photo four years later  and two women told the Huffington Post  he  touched their buttocks 10 years ago.
"I feel terribly that Iâve made some women feel badly and for that Iâm sorry  " Franken  said Thursday.

What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Dick Durbin Dick ? The phrase "chain migration" is what  Durbin  and  his  fellow liberals like to call a racist "dog whistle " but this dog won't hunt.
One wonders if  Sen. Dick Durbin  ever objected to the phrase "chain of custody" in judicial proceedings as evidence of racism in a justice system said to be unfair to blacks. Or maybe he thought "chain smoking" is a phrase coined by Klansmen watching slaves harvest tobacco. Has he ever participated in a chain letter?
Democrats like  Durbin  like to view everything through race-colored glasses  and the phrase "chain migration" is no exception  with  Durbin  claiming President Trump's use of the term reminded blacks of slavery:
 Durbin  told the media on Friday that he reprimanded Trump for using the term "chain migration" in immigration negotiations  claiming [that] it [is] associated with racism  despite the Illinois senator just this week also using the term. Durbin said in an interview: That was the nature of this conversation. When it came to the issue of  quote  "chain migration " I said to the president  do you realize how painful that term is to so many people? African-Americans believe they migrated to America in chains and when you talk about chain migration  it hurts them personally.
In 2010  Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) advocated on the Senate floor for ending the process known as "chain migration " whereby newly naturalized citizens can bring an unlimited number of foreign relatives to the U.S.  a term that he now claims insinuates racism. While asking Congress to pass the expansive and failed "DREAM Act" amnesty  which would start by legalizing millions of illegal aliens   Durbin  touted the fact that the legislation at the time would have ended chain migration  preventing newly amnestied illegal aliens from bringing their extended family members to the U.S. "The DREAM Act would not allow what is known as chain migration "  Durbin  said. "In fact  DREAM Act students would have very limited ability to sponsor their family members for legal status."
Last week  Durbin accused Republicans of forcing Lynch  President Obama's African-American nominee to replace Eric Holder  to "sit in the back of the bus" until a vote on a controversial sex trafficking bill could be held. That thinly veiled reference to the moment in 1955 when Rosa Parks refused to move from her seat in a Montgomery  Ala.[] bus was meant to paint Senate Republicans as racists. This came as news to Tim Scott  R-S.C.  the first black elected to the Senate from the Deep South since reconstruction. "It is helpful to have a long memory and remember that  Dick Durbin  voted against Condoleezza Rice during the 40th anniversary of the March (on Selma) " Scott noted. "So I think  in context  it's just offensive that we have folks who are willing to race-bait on an issue as important as human trafficking."
Not only did  Durbin  oppose the nomination of the first black woman  and only the second woman  to be secretary of state  but  he  also fought President Bush's nomination of hispanic Miguel Estrada to sit on the U.S. Court of Appeals:

What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Rob Porter ? The deputy White House press secretary had to hold his first press briefing following the resignation of  White House staff secretary Rob Porter  over domestic abuse allegations.
Before I get into why  let me praise Shah. "I think it's fair to say we all could have done better dealing with this over the last few days "  he  acknowledged regarding the White House response to the  Porter  situation. Amen. A little candor goes a long way. And  reminder:  He  was in an impossible situation.
1. Shah said that  Porter  had been "terminated" on Wednesday.
But that's not at all what happened!  Porter  offered  his  resignation -- and it was accepted. Of course  that came after White House chief of staff John Kelly repeatedly urged  Porter  to stay on even after it became very  very clear the seriousness of the allegations against the staff secretary.
2. Shah tried to argue that because  Porter  hadn't allegedly hit any of the women during his time in the White House  it was more an issue for the background check people to deal with.
 "The allegations made against Rob Porter  as we understand them  involve incidents long before he joined the White House "  said Shah. "Therefore they are best evaluated through the background check process."
3. In explaining the radical difference between Kelly's hugely supportive statement of  Porter  on Tuesday night and  his  less supportive one on Wednesday  Shah said the chief of staff became "fully" aware of  the allegations .
But according to CNN's reporting   Kelly had known for months about  the allegations . The ONLY thing that changed was that a picture of one of  Porter 's ex-wives with a massive black eye went public. Which raises the question: Did Kelly only change his total defense of  Porter  when the picture made clear it couldn't be effectively sustained?
4. Shah painted Kelly as totally unaware that the FBI had been told by both of  Porter 's ex-wives that he had abused them.
How is that possible? Did he simply not think to ask? Why not -- especially given that  Porter  still didn't have a security clearance after more than a year in the White House? And double why not -- because  Porter  was interacting so closely with Trump day in and day out?
5. Shah said that communications director Hope Hicks  who has been dating  Porter   had "recused" herself from some conversations about the situation.
But  we know -- again thanks to CNN reporting -- that Hicks was one of a handful of people involved in the crafting of Kelly's first -- and hugely supportive -- statement on  Porter . That no one stepped in and told Hicks she simply shouldn't (and couldn't) be involved boggles my mind.
Here's the thing: BOTH of  Porter 's ex-wives told the FBI that he had abused them . Both women had their stories confirmed by people with whom they shared the details contemporaneously. And  a third woman who had dated Porter  contacted  his  two ex-wives in 2016 detailing further abuse. Also  the picture. The black eye. The total lack of an explanation by  Porter . ( He  has denied the black eye picture came about as the result of any abuse. But  he  has offered zero explanation for why it did happen.)
At some point  the number of allegations  the depth of details and the similarities between the women make this more than a " he  said-she said" conversation. And that point was a while ago when the two women talked to the FBI.
