Thanks, looks like a lot of info there.

And to think some folks are concerned about Sen Brown’s photo in Cosmo years ago.

[Mamzelle]

Franken is a useful idiot...useful, to US! If we can just get cameras to record his nasty outbursts...

[rogue yam]

Translation: Once a loud-mouthed jerk, always a loud-mouthed jerk.

Franken's a jerk but in this instance he's also right. Zero is offering no leadership and standing on no clear positions but is rather hovering above the process sniffing disdainfully at all. This is screwing the Democrats big time.

I love it... the ‘RATs are imploding!

[nutmeg]

Ugh... zelig shook Franken’s hand! Remember? :-O

Even our guys are better looking!

[RaceBannon]

me too, I even told him how happy I was to hear he went to Iraq to entertain the troops!

Fact is, I WAS happy he did! It was a nice gesture!

“Boy. Where’s a frickin’ shoe bomber when you really need one.”

Really,...I’d settle for a three legged “shoe thrower”,...at close range.

[2001convSVT]

I agree with you, Franken is learning how things are done and he doesn’t like it.

[GailA]

There certainly is. We could use a header link for this one. It's good to have it in one place. Obama's War on Seniors

Franken - failed comedian and failed liberal talk show host.

I mean is there anyone on the planet who ever thought this douchenozzle was funny?

[Munz]

they are afraid and fragmented now, they are starting to eat their own.
Watch for the bodies being thrown on swords next ...

Al Franken thinks he's really a Senator

Franken criticized Axelrod for the administration’s failure to provide clarity or direction on health care

You can't provide "clarity" when you are trying to slip some provisions in under the radar so that the American public is not wise to the content of the Bill until it is passed.

[Allegra]

Franken’s not making any friends, is he? Even among his own kind. LOL

Franken criticized Axelrod for the administration’s failure to provide clarity or direction on health care and the other big bills it wants Congress to enact.

He's right, but he underestimates how hard it is to institute leftwing solutions without using the words "socialism", "Marxism", "communism" etc.

It's like trying to define an elephant without using the words "large" "animal" or "gray".
