For a moment Wednesday, Al Franken looked like he was back on the set of Saturday Night Live and not on the floor of the U.S. Senate. In a speech explaining that there would be no money to pay for military and security personnel if Congress doesn’t pass a bill increasing the debt ceiling by Aug. 2, Franken unveiled a large poster in the chamber that said, “Welcome Terrorists.”

Geesh. Ancient Rome elected a horse to their senate and we had to go and elect a jackass to our Senate.

Wouldn't have been him winning the election if the MNGOP hadn't run milquetoast Coleman against him.

More RINO nonsense mucking about with "moderates".

He wouldn’t have “won” even against Coleman if it weren’t for the Soros-picked secretary of state.

I mean really, EVERY decision went in Franken’s favor?
Come on. At least TRY not to make it so obvious.

Franken is one of the reasons we need a Voter ID law in MN.

The Repubs better pass one and let Gov. Crazy Eyes Veto it, Then pass it as a Constitutional Amendment and let the voters decide.

You know the Philippines had to provide for an electoral college after their silly population elected some inappropriate goof president............Minnesota needs something similar. How did this nincompoop get elected?

Welcome terrorists?

Heck, we have been inviting them in by the hundreds through open borders and an immigration policy that seems to encourage jihadis into our midst. And even when we find them, we promote them up the ranks, make excuses for their violent outbursts and deny the islam connection after they excercise their “religious freedom.”

There’s that. We’d have Governor Emmer as well. Amazing how Mark Ritchie was able to come up with millions in cash, not run much of a campaign, not be liked State-wide, and still retain the SoS position.

Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn will see that sign as a personal invitation.
