Franken says he had dinner with Andrea Mackris 6 months ago

[eleny]

I couldn't find a thread about this.

At the end of his program today, Franken said he had dinner with Mackris 6 months ago. She contacted him to warn him about what O'Reilly said about Franken during her phone conversations with Bill O. Franken also asserted that he never new anything about Mackris's law suit.

1. I wonder if he's mentioned this

Because he knows O'Reilly is going to try and implicate him in some way ?

2. Warn him???? Warn him about what? Is O'Liely planning a . . .

hit on Franken?

How does Al Franken know this lady? Why was he going out to dinner with her too. Did O'Liely find out about this and decided to air his dirty laundry before it got aired elsewhere? Why? Who? What? When? Where?

This lady sure gets a lot of dinner invitations.

Wonder if this is a kind of "known" thing about O'Liely? Afterall, the man has written pornographic books. He also has admitted on his show he has in the past had a problem with porn. Also, if her accusations prove to be true, then that proves that O'Liely is a cheap SOB. The millions he makes and he still wanted his phone sex free.

5. When the story of the lawsuit first came to light...

I heard that Bill O. implicated Franken. B.O. said that he thought Franken was behind it - that it may have been cooked up by Franken.

Btw, today Franken said that Macklin approached him to have dinner. And it was at that dinner that she made him aware of what Bill O'Reilly said. That Franken was being watched at the highest levels of government.

Franken talked about this at the end of today's program. So, you can hear it for yourself in the various places on the web that archive the program. or perhaps when it's rerun later tonight.

6. Dil Do'Reily

said that Fox was going to put a hit out on Franken. Something to the effect that "One day when he least expects it, Franken will answer the door and his life will change forever." or some such shit. This can't be allowed to go unpunished...

3. This makes me feel pretty good about Andrea.

O'Leilly's threats were chilling and she apparently felt that Al could well be in some danger. I've always found it hysterical that 'big man' Bill feels so terribly threatened by the great satan Al Franken.

8. I hope Franken got in a line about asking Andrea back to his place

for a shower (and being rebuffed, of course).

9. He didn't

He kept his statement short serious.
