61. That's nonsense

It was a USO tour and he wrote the script. There is no plausible USO stage event that involves shoving your tongue down a woman's throat. There's no way to read his alleged behavior there as anything but assault. No honest person on this thread actually believes that he felt he needed to rehearse the kissing scene (or that he wrote it into the script in the first place for any reason other than to facilitate his ridiculously juvenile attempt to woo her).

Nor should any progressive EVER downplay clear sexual harassment merely a "tasteless moment". Take "groping" out of it and it's still "while I was sleeping he had someone take a picture of him pretending to grope me while he flashed the "hey! Look what I can get away with!" smile at the camera... then he sent me the photo to rub it in"

There's no way to spin that as "tasteless". It's sexual harassment and entirely unacceptable.

She obviously felt violated... HE says "It's obvious how Leeann would feel violated by that picture"... the obvious question is why you can't see that as more than "tasteless"?
