Does anyone remember watching SNL when Al Franken was there? He was part of a duo called "Franken and Davis".
The reason I bring it up, is because it bugs me that no one ever talks about this. When the announcer would introduce "Franken and Davis", he always added, "Brought to you by the American Communist Party. Sooner or later we will all be communist."
That was the intro every time they appeared on SNL.
The reaction of the crowd was always very hushed. It was almost like there was disbelief.
I want someone in media to ask Al Franken to his face if he's still a communist. I want him to be accountable for it.

Yes. He played the fool - a part that comes naturally to him.
They were the skits on the show that were never funny. I always used that time to go take a leak.
Of the cast members on SNL in those days, “Franken & Davis” were on the bottom of the talent heap. Nothing they ever did was in the least bit funny.
The Minnesota comic never was funny.

Yeah. I remember they put this loser on when they ran out of material for the week. His humor was dry, bland and......not funny
Like Rush is fond of repeating: "Politics is showbiz for unattractive people."
Al Franken looks like a bad character on Batman. Trump is Batman!
“I want someone in media to ask Al Franken to his face if he’s still a communist.”
You can ask him at a CNN town hall when he runs for president in 2020. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2017/02/06/why-al-franken-makes-a-weird-amount-of-sense-as-a-2020-candidate/?utm_term=.4af44d536ab4
“”””””””””””The Minnesota comic never was funny.”””
That’s because he is a New Yorker. He was born in New York. Came to Minnesota during his school years. Left in 1969 and never came back.........until he ran for office and pretended to be a Minnesotan.
Is He still wearing a Diaper?
I do remember him a a big fat idiot who dressed up in a baby’s diaper and a little bonnet atop his oversized, jowly head.
He was and is an idiot in spades and a testimonial to the cluelessness of those Minnesotans.
Al Franken BECAME Stuart Smalley.
“I’m good enough, I’m smart enough, and doggone it, people like me!”
Pretty arrogant for a person afflicted with terminal narcissism. Or maybe it is part of the syndrome.

I thought he claimed St. Louis Park as his hometown...
If Franken runs in 2020, Jill Stein should be his VP candidate...
Yes, and I remember a boil on my butt also.
Do I remember? It’s all I see whenever I see his name mentioned. It’s probably because I dumped TV in 1997 so the last stuff I saw is what I remember the most.
