Franken Says Cheney Shot Whittington “Just to Watch Him Die”

Remember back in October when Al Franken joked with David Letterman about Karl Rove and I. Lewis Libby being executed for treason? Well, Franken is at it again with a blog entry Sunday evening at the Huffington Post. This time, the target of his tasteless satire is Vice President Dick Cheney who accidentally shot his hunting partner on Saturday:
“Over the weekend, Vice President Dick Cheney shot a man in Texas. Asked why he shot the man, the Vice President said, ‘Just to watch him die.’"
Much like other members of the media, Franken saw a bizarre connection to a previously documented hunting trip that the vice president went on: “You know who's doing a ‘there but for the grace of God go I?; Scalia.”
Then, Franken painted a sophomoric picture of what would happen if Bush and Cheney went hunting:
“Now, I imagine that Cheney and the President have hunted together. What would have happened if Cheney had shot the President? I think if he shot Bush this way, Bush isn't 78 and he's in pretty good shape, and he's kinda macho. I think he would've gotten up and shot Cheney back. And I think they would've started blasting each other like in a Tarrantino [sic] movie.”
That’s some funny stuff, Al. Don’t quit your day job. Speaking of which, things must not be going well over at Hot Air America, as Franken has taken to spamming blogs to attract listeners:
“Anyway, be sure to listen to the Al Franken Show tomorrow - noon to three EST. And Vice President Cheney will be our special guest. And guess what? He's bringing his shotgun!”
Makes you wonder if they’re going to start paying kids to hang ads on doorknobs to get listeners much the way Dominos sells pizza. Of course, unlike Franken's comedic attempts, Dominos delivers.
Who would you rather hunt with?
And this POS thinks he will win a senate seat? He is writing the commercials to defeat himself in any election.
my son once shot a duck over my head. Thank God no child social service worker was with us ;)
I guess we're supposed to be offended. I better not watch Leno or Conan tonight either.
actually I think it was Karl Rove on the grassy knoll.
>>>I'd pay to see Franken sodomized by a shotgun... make it an 10 guage.
I bet you would, country boy. I bet you would. Thanks for the honesty-- Brokeback Mountain is probably playing in a theater near you.
LOL Thats a good idea. I'm sure someone will do it. Probably some radio dj.
I am bombarded with that stupid Air America spam at work. I keep reporting it and asking them to not send me that garbage, to no avail.
I don't get the connection. I guess I'm slow today.
Chaney shot Whittington because Whittington is a lawyer.
What else you need skippy?
John Wesley Hardin shat a man for snoring too loud..
A real hard case when young, but became a bit of a whipped dog in his older years. He tried to use his legacy as a threat against the Selmans. One of them decided to take no chances and put a bullet behind Hardin's ear while he was playing dice in a saloon.
Not that this has anything to do with the topic, but I thought everyone could use a break from Franken by now.
APf
NARAL needs to start using Al Franken as a poster boy for their pro-abortion agenda, because his continued existence is one of THE strongest arguments FOR abortion ever seen.
In the "for what it's worth" department, Whittington (who is expected to be released today) wandered off to rescue an injured(?) bird, which put him in the line of fire, one news report I've heard stated that Whittington was "30 yards" from the Vice President, which would put him at 90 feet, not exactly point blank range.
It was an accident. Fortunately Whittington will survive to tell the tale, and everyone is happy about that.
Unfortunately, the no-class bums like Franken, Sarah Brady, et al, with their stunted intellectual growth, will continue to breathe AND waste oxygen.
Which proves there is NO justice.
Ugh... SHOT a man... Nevermind. "Shat" is funny on so many levels.
APf
LOL!!!
sure, if it paid good, and they didnt mind me making fun of immigrants and crackheads
Franken is as funny as a screen door in a submarine. That clown should just shut his mouth and not appear as stupid as he is. His personal attacks are nothing new, or funny, but if he thinks he is that good, why is his radio network going downhill so fast? Could it have anything to do with the on air personalities they have? Can't wait for the doors to close on this twerp, and I hope it's soon.
