Apparently the state is off the tracks.

[Veggie Todd]

And gosh darnit, people like me!

[Leaning Right]

I’m kinda happy to hear this, as it gives me a chance to repost my favorite Al Franken groping meme.

[Da Coyote]

He’s funny, all right.
But not in the way that he wants to be.

[Gen.Blather]

Long before politics, I never found him funny, or even entertaining. It was the entertainment version of eating a tasteless, stale donut and wondering why the heck you even bothered swallowing it. Then, he got into politics and we got to see what a horrible man he was.

I say lock him in the cage with the gorilla from Trading Places.

Al will be asked about his #MeToo sexcapades, including the stories that fell into the memory hole when he abruptly quit the Senate (because there were more stories), and he will snap at the reporter, and that will be the end of that. No more tour, no nothing. SCHADENFREUDE.

"But seriously folks, I have the greatest respect for our military women. Can we give them a hand please? Or maybe both hands?"

[cyclotic]

I’ll apologize again. When he was still a senator, Franken walked in front of my car and brushed my bumper while at a red light. I fought the urge to floor it. I’m sorry.

It would be worth it to get about 50 people, buy tickets, then heckle boo and taunt him. Give it back to him like he disrupted the nation.

Who wants to go to that miserable dysfunctional Somalian state of corruption.

Will Tom Davis be with him? I’ll admit Franken was funny forty years ago, when the two of them were together on “Saturday Night Live,” but he hasn’t been funny since then.

Al Franken is to comedy what Jeffrey Dahmer was to fine dining.

Frankenstein monster.

Davis died a few years ago.

[PGalt]

Franken could marry up with Jill Stein on the comedy tour...or Diane Feinstein could do interpretations in Chinese.

I remember that skit where they said the show was sponsored by "The Communist Party - Because One Day, You Will Be a Communist"

[TakebackGOP]

He’s a vile man. This couldn’t have happened to a better person.

[The_Media_never_lie]

Al Franken was never really funny. He was much funnier as a congressperson than as a comedian.

[uranium penguin]

the “Give him enough GROPE” world tour.

[COBOL2Java]

He can go back to Air America!

Oh, wait...
