The very existence of Sen. Al Franken is making wingnut heads explode
By David Neiwert Sunday Jan 11, 2009 6:00pm
It's not hard to tell that the looming elevation of Al Franken to the U.S. Senate is making Republicans crazy. Last week Bill O'Reilly -- whose feud with Franken is now the stuff of legend -- had to resort to running one of Franken's old comedy videos (his hilarious parody of Mick Jagger) so he could call him a "pinhead."
O'Reilly: Pinhead? You have no idea, ladies and gentlemen.
Now Politico reports that Franken is feeling the love from all kinds of right-wingers:
“I don’t know if we’ve ever had an opponent who is so disliked by Republicans as Al Franken,” said Minnesota Republican Party Chair Ron Carey, who cautioned that Coleman’s election challenge could still turn the results back his way. “It’s one thing to lose to an honorable opponent, but Al Franken is not considered an honorable opponent by Minnesota Republicans.”
Marty Seifert, the Republican leader in the Minnesota House of Representatives, said Franken’s long record of antagonizing conservatives would make it difficult for him to connect with voters who supported Coleman.
“It’s going to be hard for Franken to be very effective with any Republicans, in terms of having any credibility with us, just because he’s been so nasty in the past,” Seifert said. “He certainly has callous and very partisan behavior in the past that is beyond the pale.”
According to Carleton College political scientist Steven Schier, Franken’s record as a “flamboyant and aggressive partisan” would make him ripe for criticism back home.
“I think it’s impossible to overstate the hostility Minnesota Republicans feel toward Al Franken,” Schier said. “He will be a very useful fundraising tool.”
Republicans outside Minnesota are equally apoplectic when it comes to Franken. Prominent conservative Rush Limbaugh, who Franken mocked in the title of one of his books, has already jabbed Franken on his radio show, telling listeners in December that Franken “won’t quit [the Senate race] because he doesn’t know how to get a real job…He’s a pathetic figure.”
Ah, nothing like inchoate nature of impotent rage. I just hope it doesn't keep Franken from just being himself. Because they're gonna savage him no matter what he does, so he ought to just have fun with it.
And as long as we're digging up old videos, here's one back atcha, Poppa Bear:
This one was memorable as well for the producer's view and the dance mix.

Ooh, hark at them. Big experts on being honorable.
It's still difficult to accept George W Bush as an honorable opponent to any Democrat.
Jaaesus Geehosafat!!!
That video, plus the whole loofah thingy should really make Papa Bear STFU already...
with republican voters.
This is typical neo-con projection. They "predict" what they secretly desire.
I'd call them tools but tools are useful.
..what he does is a real job..?!
Hell.. Limbaugh really is a comedian!
Now let's see Billy if you can imitate a fucking human being .
And Sir Mick does a good Keith Richard.
I think we should comfort and soothe Bill O'Reilly.
Clearly, he needs it.
maybe O'Really will pop a cranium bolt...............again.
O'Reilly looked into Al's eyes and saw intelligence and it scared the shit out him!
O'Reilly will call Franken --- Senator Stuart Smalley?
as long as he doesn't have to call him back.
Al Franken is a great, honest, worthy, intelligent, progressive speaker and person! He'll be an excellent Senator.
The wingnuts hate him because he mocks the hell out of them. As they should be laughed out of town. LOL, this is going to be a good year!
I LOVED listening to Al Franken at the noon hour on Air America a few years back and I was bummed that he was leaving - to run for Senate!
He ought to be a PHENOMENAL Democratic senator and I hope he continues to be a passionate progressive and CONTINUES to poke a stick in the eye of every retarded Republican he has to deal with. If they can act civilized towards him, fine, but if they break his balls I hope he ridicules them to no end!!!
.
I'm rather bothered by Bill-doh's question of the day:
The mere concept that the question draws out is that on some level, it is acceptable to wish that Obama not succeed...
I thought wing-nuts always support the president, ALWAYS!
Since when do they entertain not supporting and wishing success?
Oh, I get it...
... IOKIYR president is in charge... NO?
Otherwise, wish him not so well?
.
.
Bill-doh's just jealous it's not Senator Oh'Lie-to-me.
.
Senator Franken all last week on her radio show. Her rants were childish and personal...with a touch of jealousy. I guess she wanted that slime bucket Coleman to win.
..and a paradigm shift for me :/
Not an 'enquiring mind' per se, but it would still be cool to know why Ms. Rhodes isn't supporting Franken. I normally respect both of their opinions very much.
Why the infighting at this crucial juncture..?
bites the dust. Guess the accident turned her brain to mush. At least she has an excuse!
I just got done writing essentially the same thing and I didn't even see your post - she really does remind me of a ridiculous lefty who is off her rocker - like a Michael Savage of the left - that's exactly who she reminds me of. She talks all of this out there, conspiracy type "moonbat" shit - and I'M A LIBERAL!
LeftandLeft
I cannot say what Ms. Rhodes's reason are for criticizing Al Franken but perhaps it might be due to the fact that:
* Franken, like Obama, was against impeaching one of the most corrupt administrations in the history of the United States.
* Franken, like Obama, does not believe that Bush and Cheney should be prosecuted for war crimes.
* Franken is in agreement with Obama that U.S. troops should remain in Iraq [despite what the Iraqis want] even after Obama's phased [as opposed to immediate] withdrawal plan has been finally completed.
* Franken, like Obama, is content with having even more U.S. troops sent from Iraq to Afghanistan where they can continue to terrorize the Afghan people.
* Franken, like Obama, is an Israeli apologist who will side with the Israelis while ignoring the massacre of the Palestinians in Gaza.
* Franken, like Obama, is against single payer health care while supporting the idea of keeping the insurance and pharmaceutical companies in the equation.
Franken, like Obama, is hardly a representative of hope and change.
Liberals that post here that espouse some of the same views!
If he's zionist, that would matter to me! But your claims are like puffs of air otherwise!
Chicano2nd
"If he's zionist...? I suggest that you scroll down about half way down this link [which is The Jewish Journal] where Franken is asked "Do you agree that Bush is a good friend to Israel?"
Franken's reply: "There is definitely a pro-Israel slant, which I basically agree with for Bush."
I have not read anything where Franken has repudiated that remark. Nor have I read anything recently where Franken has expressed any sympathy at all for the plight of those Palestinians who have been slaughtered by Israeli bombs.
I stand by my comment that Franken, like Obama, is an Israeli apologist.
http://www.jewishjournal.com/arts/article/q_a...
A Pro-Israel slant could be little more than he recognizes their right to exist, without necessarily endorsing every policy.
Would I be unAmerican if I didn't support booshco?
I think you fabricated that and pulled it out of your ass but I could be wrong.
And he DID need to get elected, so maybe that is the position he took running for the Senate but if you ever listened to him while he was on Air America you would know to trust him to do the right thing.
Timothy the Music Snob
Fabricated that? That is the best defense that you can come up with? Are you attempting to say that I made up a publication called the Jewish Journal? If you actually bothered to read the article you would have found out that those are Franken's words, not mine. Then you dig a hole for yourself even further by claiming that what he said was justified [even though you had previously cast doubt that the Jewish Journal even exists] because he said those things to get elected. And that is somehow supposed to justify Franken's position favoring Israel? As I said in the earlier comment, Franken has said nothing later on to repudiate what he said in the article and nor has he ever, to the best of my knowledge, condemned Israel for its massacre of the citizens of Gaza.
But according to you, we are somehow supposed to "trust him to do the right thing." Based on what, the figment of your very active imagination? I seriously doubt if the Palestinians will feel the need to trust Mr. Franken. Also, I had indeed listened to him when he was on Air America and not once did I ever hear him say a sympathetic word about the misery and suffering of the Palestinian people while carrying the banner of the Israeli cause.
Is there a someone on the left or right that you DO support Enroll?
You appear to be one of those perpetually unhappy, glass half empty people.
LeftandLeft
Kindly explain, if you are able, why the sainted Al Franken should be judged better than the odious Norm Coleman in light of what I had written at 01/11 at 20:09. You argument is based solely on emotion with absolutely no hint of intelligence behind what you had written. You made absolutely no reference to what I had written about Franken, all of which is true. You believe that I am a "half empty" person. More accurately, I tend to look at an issue realistically instead of giving Al Franken a free pass simply because he is either
a) a Democrat or b) a celebrity.
I seriously doubt if the Iraqis and the Afghans and the Palestinians will look at Franken as being their savior and benefactor.
Does genocide, and its abettors in your government, make you happy?
Where there is no anger there is no love.
It is to this country’s shame that liberalism here can mean opposition to genocide unless Israel is doing it.
...Obama knows this.
"*Franken, like Obama, does not believe that Bush and Cheney should be prosecuted for war crimes."
Total bullshit.
Why would Obama, a Constitutional Law Professor say such a thing and just let these animals off? Please provide a link, and not from some libelous righty hate site.
LeftandLeft
"Why would Obama, a Constitutional Law Professor say such a thing and just let these animals off?" Why indeed. I realize that, being an Obamamaniac, it is very difficult to think with your head instead of your heart but at least try to make an attempt. Since this link is from Truthout, which is hardly a "libelous righty hate site", then I submit what I had written cannot be termed, as you so inelegantly put it, total bullshit. The point, of course, is that Obama, for whatever reason, seems most reluctant to go after one of the most corrupt administrations in United States history, which may perhaps indicate what little difference there is between the Democrats and the Republicans
If you are able to discover why Obama is so hesitant to do this, then please get back to me so I can read about your attempt to rationalize Obama's unwillingness to go after these war criminals.

Enroll links please... put em up or shut up
Muzzy
As a start, I suggest that you click on the link that I provided at 01-12 at 09:42. I also thought that what I had written at 01-11 at 20:09 but it seems that is not the case. If you still seem unclear about what I had written, let me know specifically what you are in the dark about and I am sure that I will be able to cite an article that can, hopefully, broaden your horizons.
"Put em up or shut or." Wonderful. I suggest that you make a little bit of an attempt to write more intelligently [if that is at all possible] as you end up coming across as a buffoon.
Enroll you posted a link that is in my opinion pointless. If Obama was to reveal his intent at this time it would be hellish, you can't disagree with that fact. I prefer to wait and see what he will do before spouting off like a 'buffoon'. At 20:09 you appear to have drawn several conclusion on what Senator Franken and Obama are thinking, or maybe you have a link to them expressing their opinions on all 6 of the points you made. Since your conclusions alone are no good to anyone but yourself I was hoping you would provide us with links or at least proof of your infinite wisdom. Please and thank you. As for how I come across, I'm not running for office here, I owe you nothing.
Muzzy
I am unclear why one would have "to wait and see" [I assume you mean when Obama becomes president on Jan. 20] or to draw any conclusions when he is already on record [which I had stated at 20:09] as to his intentions. Since you choose not to accept the link that I have already posted I then have to wonder why I should post more links as you would probably then say that they are "pointless."
As I stated before, I am puzzled as to your confusion since I assumed [perhaps erroneously] that you, as an Obama supporter, were quite familiar with his positions. What I stated at 20:09 is all too true, unfortunately. Again, let me know what exactly you believe is not true and I will then provide you with the proper affirmation.
Well then I guess me and you have a very different view of how things happen in Washington. My view is that what is said before the election and what happens after rarely resemble each other. I hope that once in power he will do the right thing. And if does do it (go after Bush) due to evidence or for whatever reason he comes up with, he can say he never intended to do so... its on record :)
...that wingnut heads do explode with the thought of Al Franken. Ignore all trolls.
Enron: Why don't you goes to Minn. and campaign with Normal Coleman for a new recount if you're so eager for him to win? While you're there be sure to have a hot cup of STFU.
What the fuck is that all about?
Yeah, out of all of the liberal talk show hosts one of the few that I can't really stand is Randi Rhodes - she really is a loony lefty - the left's version of Michael Savage - and we don't need that.
...BS.
In the American establishment, Democrat and Republican, there is only right-wing and far right-wing. Like Franken. He only seems like a liberal next to Bill O'Reilly, which I guess is why he has enjoyed playing with him.
If Randi Rhodes seems like a far left loony to you, and if Franken seems like a true liberal, I think you are delusional and seriously in need of some perspective.
But of course, a snob is usually a parasite who "don't get it" and who always sucks up to the establishment, even if it means supressing what his own senses tell him.
Celsius
"In the American establishment, Democrat and Republican, there is only right-wing and far right-wing. Like Franken." Very well said. At long last, someone who has gone beneath surface to discover that Franken is hardly the liberal [as I wrote at 01-11 at 20:09] that so many people here believe him to be. As I wrote, I hardly think that the Iraqis and the Afghans and especially the Palestinians would view Al Franken as a bastion of liberal thinking.
She holds a grudge against Air America Radio because they fired her.
Rhodes pulled the same character defamation shit on Ed Schultz.
the only way billo's head will explode
is if he farts thru his blocked ears.......
Al Franken need do nothing else to be one of my favorite politicians of all time. Who woulda thought you could be a great Senator just by showing up. LOL
I'm PSYCHED that he got elected too!
...been complete assholes for years on end it's not difficult to understand the so-called nastiness he exhibits in regard to the likes of the Ditto Heads and O'Reilly.
I love that Franken takes no shit from wingnuts and it would not bother me one bit if he was nasty to the worst among them!
“It’s going to be hard for Franken to be very effective with any Republicans … because he’s been so nasty [to us] in the past.”
Call the frigging Waaaaaaahmbulance, stat.
Rush Limbaugh stated Franken "won't quit [the Senate race] because he doesn’t know how to get a real job…"
Let's see. If my memory serves me correctly, Al Franken was the host of a talk radio show.
MY GOD, Rush! You're correct! Franken DOESN'T know how to find a real job!
LOL!
Has he aged or what? Doesn't even look like the same guy! I have never seen him on TV so I don't know.
Oops- double post. :D
Now the editors at Amazon.com can add United States Senator to this blurb re: Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them -
"Having previously dissected the factual inaccuracies of a single bellicose talk show host in Rush Limbaugh Is a Big Fat Idiot, Al Franken takes his fight to a larger foe: President George W. Bush, the Bush Administration, Ann Coulter, Bill O’Reilly, and scores of other conservatives whom, he says, are playing loose with the facts. It's a lot of ground to cover, as evidenced by the 43 chapters in Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them, but the results are often entertaining and insightful. Franken occupies a unique place in the modern political dialogue as perhaps the media's only comedy writer and performer who is also a Harvard fellow as well as a liberal political commentator..."
I'm having trouble pinpointing just what Franken did that was so aggressive or offensive. If I recall his radio show correctly, he spent most of his time deconstructing Hannity/Limbaugh/O'Reilly's lies from the previous day.
Oh... I guess that's it.
IS GOD as far as I'm concerned!
He singlehandedly tore Limbaugh and Coulter apart!
Showed them to be the JACKASSES they are!
stations- that's where the threats go on unchallenged.
every time a radio station airs threats or veiled threats toward franken or lies about him they ought to get complaint calls.
sept 10 limbaugh said "obama's head needs to roll" and unfortunately i may have been the only one who called the local blowhard station.
Bill O Reilly as kermit:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGcEWCNBBa4
The day that the recount was finished, I sent Billo an email. All it said was:
Bwahahahahahahaha! Senator Al Franken. President Barack Obama. Bwahahahahahahaha!
May need to send him another reminder.
Simply put:the Republicans can dish it out but they can't take it.
They have been serving it up relentlessly without a speck of regret or common decency for 8 long years,and now they're mewling like new born kittens because Franken has the outright audacity(not to mention razor sharp wit)to throw their childish crap right back in their fat hate twisted faces.Well as Nelson Munst would put it: "HA-HA".
AMEN!
Hard for amen to be sisters.
What really infuriates the right wing lunatic fringe is that someone they consider hyper "partisan" is now a Senator, and if one of their "partisans" ran for a similiar position that voters would be scared to death of them.
Remember, Minnesota Republicans, the ones that reelected Bachman. Yea, talk about your partisans.
If Franken is an idiot for his comedic work on SNL, et al...then isn't Arnold Swarzenneger murderous scum for his acting roles?
Sen George Murphy for his delightful dancing and Ronnie Reagan's acting in some of the worlds' best know films
Petulant child. (Bill O, not Franken)
Bill O and his crazed Neocon syncophants remind me of a terminally demented rabid dog foaming at the mouth and chasing it's tail. Time to put these looney Bowzers out of their misery.
what was the Republican hero pres Reagan, when he played in the movie Bedtime for Bonzo?
Where else could one former comedian, now senator, piss off so many righties that they can't see straight, let alone hit the toilet.
I am loving every minute of it, and hope Al sticks around for at least three terms to show those bastards what a real thorn in their backside feels like!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vGZZTHCF8qk
The words Senator Frankin make me feel so happy! I keep hearing him say, "Me, Al Frankin." Go Al!
BOTH!
fiction is about to become reality
against all the ones with dead hearts.
He brings forth a lot of facts, background, and quotes from Franken to prove he's not fit to represent Minnesota in the Senate... oh, wait, Bill O DOESN'T do any of that! He just calls Franken names...
I love that imitation of Jagger by Franken. I love the old, original SNLs. I see nothing wrong with a senator who was a big part of one of the 1970s most important, impressive and (at the time) revolutionary tv shows. That was our generation. You don't like it? Fuck it! Al did it live!
O'Reilly is jealous of Franken because Franken was having a blast in the 70s while O'Reilly was sucking up to anyone who could get him a shitty tv reporter job at a third rate station.
and everyone was totally stoned out of their gourds
I still have to wonder about those people who think Tina Fey is so hilarious.
Yeah. Me too. She's not the least bit funny.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=susZ2ceEHwk
usually by people who can take a joke. Reagon had his chimp, Arnold had his mass murdering, minimal-thinking persona, probably the only actor in the history of cinema who can't master any accent but the one he was raised with. Al Franken has his quick, often brilliant wit. Man, there are some really hard-core differences between extreme conservatives and the rest of the world.
Also, is there a list of transgressions so that we can qualify Senator Franken's shortcomings? Anything? A dozen? A couple?
Anyone who pisses the wingnuts off is ok in my book!
Go Al Go!
it was funny...when o'loofa uses the term...its nasty
the man is speaking about a soon to be seated senator
why does o'loofa hate america?
why would anyone care about o'reilly anymore.
he should be arrested as a traitor to the US.
Franken "nasty"? Well, he called Limbaugh a big fat idiot - pretty tame, all things considered. Franken would invite conservatives on his show and let them say their piece.
Calling bullshit on Rethug lies. It's the one thing that makes him 'impossible' for Rethugs to 'work' with. Fuck them, the Lying Liars. Maybe if they could represent an honest position . . . As long as Franken pisses them off, I'll donate to him like a Mormon donates to temple.
Shirley?
How sweet.....I love seeing the wingnuts get their panties in a wad over Al Franken. I've always loved Al Franken for calling these bozos out on their lies and making them look stupid in the process. He's a smart guy and will do fine in the Senate. Too bad the wingnuts have no sense of humor.
even Can Moulter is on here saying that she lives in New York but has a Connecticut address for tax purposes, she admits that anyway.
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-8624...
If after watching "God Spoke" you don't think Al or should I say Senator Franken isn't a funny or a passionate liberal, man, you are crazy.
I love to see billo flip out, well that is a lie I never like to see billo ever.
He is a loud obnoxious fool. I don't get how he gets an audience?
But I think Al is a good man he has beat fox and billo in court so you know he is smarter then billo.
Let the heads explode! LOL we can laugh when we clean up the mess knowing we don't have to be bothered with them again!
Incoming - get down!
"Al Franken is a great, honest, worthy, intelligent, progressive speaker and person! He'll be an excellent Senator."
Lex, I guess my concern is that I'm not sure those aren't mutually exclusive categories.
Anyway, to paraphrase the philosopher Schopenhauer, base people have no insight to understand greatness -- but they can easily recognize their own base instincts in others. Having no choice but to see the bad, and only the bad, in great people, it is only natural they cheerfully proclaim great people bad.
The news hits FAUX news that Al Franken's gonna be senator:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HY-03vYYAjA
One page of C&L and there are four threads about the news talkers John King, Bill O, Thomas Fiedman, Ann Coulter or five if you include Joe the Plumber and not one of them makes the news, they just give their spin on it. What a waste of band width. In my opinion,not questioning anyone elses values or right to stay informed about issues or personalities that matter to them, of course.
I've read this three times, and it still makes no sense.
I think he is saying there is to much BS on C&L but I'm not sure
They are not newsworthy.
Please feel free to educate us on the most reliable news sources, then. its the new Obama thing, instead of just bitching you present solutions.
Crooks & Liars
See the connection? Or do we need to explain it further to you?
I mean, this is a thread about Al Franken, the man who penned the book "Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them". And these cretins like BillO and Coultergeist and Limpballs certainly fit that description...so why should we sit back and ignore them? That simply validates that their opinions hold worth and should be considered by thinking people; better we should deconstruct their comments and show them for the lying fools they are.
ann coulter=voters fraud
bor=al franken's recent election, still being challenged
wolf-wolf=just now being replaced with an even more partisan host
Sounds relevant to me.
The site's about crooks and liars of all estates 1-4 at least.
See last line, first post.
That's where you're writing got the most garbled.
Most of the right wing idiots who hate Franken have never seen him or heard him. Probably 99% of them have never heard or read his books. O'Shithead hates him because Franken made him look like the idiot he is... in a very public way. Same with Limpdick. So they rant on and on about Franken from their bully pulpit and the right wing masses that listen to them believe them. And even right wing leaders believe O'Shithead and Limpdick. So all these people hate Franken just because the are told to. They have never seen him or listened or read his books. That is how easy it is for these blowhards to sway their audience.
I generally post about only a few things, and comment derisively about a lot of things, but whenever I make comments on the personalities of the news and not just the news itself I have had some reactionary responses both about myself and the subject I refer to, which as in this case, is the dominance of news personalities being put up in place of news with content. The last line of the first post was a throw away meant to be funny.
I think talking about FOX, the aforementioned people, and the bobble heads are wasteful of limited time and resources. I do use sources of information from outside the United States for a large portion of information about politics, such as the BBC and several English papers around the world for the simple reason that they can report without devaluing the news with personal points of view because they don’t have an emotional investment in the subject most of the time.
As to the crooks and liars angle of the site I understand it and like it, that’s why I come here, but I still have issue, and will reflect my opinion, that there are bigger fish to fry and these people ain’t them.
Sorry if there was any misunderstanding due to my attempt at irony.
CNN the "liberal" cable news show going more conservative while the last election showed America going the opposite direction isn't important?
No.
So the entire site is about you?
I was on another blog and some joker was saying that Franken was a liar and stole the election and is a liar etc etc. I wondered where that came from because I had not really heard it. Now I know. It came right out of the mouths of Bill O'Shithead and Rush and Dick Morris and I'll bet Hannity said it also. But that is the source of it. No facts just words out of the mouths of complete assholes and now they have people all over the country saying it as if it were fact. They just said it and now these people believe it. It was never backed up by anything. Nothing!! Just words.
With so many conservative publishing houses publishing their screeds, I wonder if we'll soon have revisionist history textbook controversies in our public schools.
Yeah I always hated Rush

Again I am stating a personal, admittedly biast opinion on a single issue.
You impersonate Ted Baxter every night, Billo ;-).
Thet thar is FUNNY! See, you thought Ted Baxter was fictional!
When I first looked at that pick I thought the caption under Al's photo said "Pothead". Then I put my glasses on.
that they believe they are SO refined and informed, yet the term "open minded" means you're either gay or part of the "anti-war crowd." They are also usually (at least somewhat) racist while arguing (unconvincingly)that they are not, and in almost ANY argument they will argue with inane, indefensible, disengenious uttterings 'till the cows come home, and when it is clear they are wrong and have lost these "arguments", they start either calling names or bullying, or both(!) those America-hating terrorists!
Al Franken has "tweaked the nose" of Bill O'Reilly and Ann Coulter, and now he gets elected to the Senate. They should be scared. If they were smart enough to see it, they would know that Al Franken got elected partly because he showed the lack of credibility that O'Lielly and Coulter have. People are tired of them. Their side of the political argument is "tired", and they have been shown mutiple times to fabricate things in order to sway the electorate. They've lost credibility with those who matter -- independent voters.
is not political but completely argumentative.
Yeah, sock it to 'im, Billo! Showing that ancient clip of a comedian being silly was really effective! What a pinhead. He was a professional comedian doing a parody of a popular entertainer! What a pinhead! Wow!
If Franken had been prancing around doing Mick on the campaign trail, you know, maybe I'd throw Billo a Mulligan on this, but for crying out loud. That's lame even for Billo.
I love how Franken flushed Coulter. That's what Flush Bimbo is afraid of. "Flush it fatso!" Turn Al loose on the bunch of them. At least Al knows what's going on in the world. In order to be a good comedian one must understand the seriousness of the topic. Good going Al. Congratulations for scaring the crap out of the crooks...We're laughing.
Lenny B.
After O'Reilly harasses an employee for phone sex he has the audacity to be concerned about Al Franken, the comedian, doing a comedy routine?
O'Reilly has no shame.
I use to love Air America and listen to it every day until they treated Sam Seder so poorly. (I have not listened to them sense) But even when I did listen to Air America every day I would not listen to Randi Rhodes. She always came off as just too nasty to me.
Hearing that she is apparently trashing Al now does not surprise me.
Part of me wants to be an adult and simply just say that I’ve loved Al Franken for a long time. I’m super proud of him. He is going to make a fantastic senator and make this country proud.
And another part of me wants to laugh in the other side’s face for being such WATBs and ask them what does it feel like having the shoe on the other foot?!!
With Stephen Colbert becoming something special in his own right making fun of Papa Bear every night and Al Franken being referred to as Senator Franken it should be fun watching Billy officially going bat s*** crazy over the next few years.
American democracy works like it's supposed to, and they hate it even more when they get beat at their own game! Hey O'RAIL-ey, BWA-HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
