		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Am I the only one who (honestly) thinks he’s slightly retarded.. there’s just something about him, the way he talks or something… there’s something off, I’m not sure.

		<description>I think running for Senate is absolutely the FUNNIEST thing Al Franken has done in his entire career.

I love the part where he says his wife&#039;s famly made it because of socialist security and the like.

This idiot&#039;s the best thing to happen to the right since Al Gore.

		<description>How about setting up a betting pool to see how long til he slips up and succumbs to cracking jokes like his old self again after some 30+ years being the (not)comedy man himself?

And now he&#039;s &quot;serious&quot; ?

Seriously, now. C&#039;mon.


&quot;Hi. I&#039;m Al Franken, and I&#039;m serious.&quot;

		<description>One of my favorites, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.richwatch.net/tcrowd.mpg&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Colin Quinn hands Al Franken&lt;/a&gt; his own ass.

Al and his &quot;Air America&quot; cohorts appeared on the Comedy Central show Tough Crowd, hosted by Colin Quinn. In a discussion of the Iraq/Abu-Ghraib scandal, Franken claimed that Golda Meir, the former prime minister of Israel, once said, 

&lt;em&gt;We will someday forgive the Palestinians for killing our children, but we will never forgive ourselves for killing their children.&lt;/em&gt;

Oops. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.quotationspage.com/quote/33312.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;What Meir actually said&lt;/a&gt; was,

&lt;em&gt;We can forgive you for killing our sons. But we will never forgive you for making us kill yours&lt;/em&gt;</description>

		<description>What would Al&#039;s new slogan be for his Senate race? 

&quot;I&#039;m serious.&quot; 

??

Hmmm...the Great &quot;Communicator.&quot;

Allah Pundit, what say you and/or Michelle put together a clip just to show how serious Al is on...well, just about anything you can think of. No, really. I&#039;m serious.</description>

		<description>I&#039;ll tell you why he is running for the Senate... Now that Air America has failed he needs a well paying job where he can sit around and do nothing. The solution: The Senate.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;&quot;Minnesota consistently ranks as one of the best states. Idiot liberals…..&quot;&lt;/em&gt;

Minnesota is obviously free to govern itself as it wishes.  It&#039;s when people who share those ideals try to force them down the throats of others who disagree is when we run into problems.  Franken loves &quot;entitlements&quot;?  Fine, keep them in Minnesota.  That&#039;s what liberals don&#039;t understand.  Forcing your views of &quot;how things should be&quot; on people who don&#039;t feel that way is not good, not good at all.  What&#039;s worse, is you rob our pockets to perpetuate your ideals.  That is really, really, not good. 

The obvious answer is to dismantle countless programs that the federal government shouldn&#039;t have instituted in the first place.  Leave it up to the individual states and their citizens to deal with issues as they see fit ... that&#039;s how our country was envisioned, but certainly isn&#039;t the way it is now.</description>

There is a large idiot liberal contingent there, willing to elect idiot liberals of any race, creed, or color (Jewish, Muslim, whatever). 

Lehuster on February 14, 2007 at 11:34 PM&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Think of any quality of life indicator--life expectancy, education level, cultural offerings, low incidence of crime, your choice.  Minnesota consistently ranks as one of the best states.  Idiot liberals.....

Franken will run and he will win.</description>

		<description>If MN elects him, I’m all for having MN voted OUT of the United States and occupied by US troops. 

georgej on February 15, 2007 at 6:33 AM

Please, Please do.
Last night on the news they had a poll taken that said Normy would whoop him but look at the past here. (i.e. the nutty professor, rastler and on and on)
The only reason this clown moved back to Minnesota was to run for the senate. The minute he loses he&#039;ll be gone again.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Didn’t Minnesota elect an ex-wrestler?&lt;/blockquote&gt;
Yes, we did, and we all received a nice sales tax rebate check two years in a row because he made a campaign promise to return a tax revenue surplus back to the tax payers.  How&#039;s that for a first!  A Governor that kept a campaign promise!.  Jessie was the first, and no doubt the last, Governor that gave some back to the little man as oppose to just sticking it to us.  

I have a step-dad that&#039;s a true blue Liberal and I actually got him to admit a few years ago that Jessie &quot;wasn&#039;t that bad&quot; of a Governor.  That&#039;s saying a lot as my step-dad is a man that follows the liberal march beat by beat.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;t’s obvious that he’s pretending to tone down and unfortunately, some of the electorate in Minnesota will fall for it. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
Here&#039;s one Minnesotan that won&#039;t fall for it.</description>

		<description>Franken is party to the theft of &gt;$850,000 from a boys and girls club -- money earmarked for Alzheimer&#039;s patients and inner city youth sports programs.

He is an outspoken LIAR (like all liberal Democrats), and he ceased being &quot;funny&quot; years ago.

If MN elects him, I&#039;m all for having MN voted OUT of the United States and occupied by US troops.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;It’s obvious that he’s pretending to tone down&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Tone down???? His entire career has been pretending.  He is a Democrat&#039;s wet-dream.  &quot;Say what is popular, believe in what you can not talk about, and use your celebrity status to gain votes....&quot;  

Watch how fast the left and the Dems embrace him if he catches any fire what so ever, I doubt it, but the 2006 elections proved me wrong.

Here is a good bed time story, imagine this guy in a seat of power in the United States Senate with a Democrat President in 2008............ pleasant dreams.....</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;I am always impressed how Minnesota has a long history of electing Jewish politicians…it’s not like there’s a huge Jewish contingent there.&lt;/em&gt;

There is a large idiot liberal contingent there, willing to elect idiot liberals of any race, creed, or color (Jewish, Muslim, whatever).</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Don’t get all huffy over Franken comments, it isn’t worth it.

darwin&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Your right.  BTW, &lt;strong&gt;&quot;huffy&quot;&lt;/strong&gt;, sounds like something my wife would say to me.  Well excuse me! :)</description>

		<description>In announcing his intent to run for the Senate, Al Franken has finally uttered a funny line. Finally, Franken has told a joke that is actually funny.

I read this and laughed so hard I nearly fell out of my chair.</description>
