Dem Gov. Candidate Posts About Being 'Sexually Intimate With Approximately 50 Very Attractive Females'

An Ohio Democratic gubernatorial candidate posted on Facebook Friday about his sexual escapades in the wake of the sexual misconduct allegations levied against Sen. Al Franken (D., Minn.).

"Now that the dogs of war are calling for the head of Senator Al Franken I believe it is time to speak up on behalf of all heterosexual males. As a candidate for Governor let me save my opponents some research time," Ohio Supreme Court Justice Bill O'Neill began, referencing recent allegations that Franken sexually assaulted a woman in 2006.

"In the last fifty years I was sexually intimate with approximately 50 very attractive females. It ranged from a gorgeous personal secretary to Senator Bob Taft (Senior) who was my first true love and we made passionate love in the hayloft of her parents barn in Gallipolis and ended with a drop dead gorgeous red head who was a senior advisor to Peter Lewis at Progressive Insurance in Cleveland," O'Neill wrote.

The "gorgeous personal secretary" description was later edited to "gorgeous blonde."

"Now can we get back to discussing legalizing marijuana and opening the state hospital network to combat the opioid crisis. I am sooooo disappointed by this national feeding frenzy about sexual indiscretions decades ago," O'Neill continued before finishing with "Peace."

O'Neill has sat on the Ohio Supreme Court since 2013.

O'Neill confirmed in an interview with Cleveland.com that he penned the Facebook post:

In an interview with cleveland.com, O'Neill confirmed he wrote the post and defended Franken.

O'Neill also defended Alabama Supreme Court Justice Roy Moore, who is facing allegations of sexual harassment from seven women, including molesting a 14-year-old girl.

"Roy Moore apparently seems to be a challenged individual when it comes to morality," O'Neill said. "I think that's very, very clear. He's been convicted of nothing and he's never had the opportunity to defend himself and that violates due process in America. The media is about to determine the election of a United States Senate campaign."

O'Neill also volunteered that he wasn't sure if the number of women he referenced being sexually intimate with was actually 50, because he "doesn't keep count."
