Drunk or Stoned Al Franken Makes Complete Fool Of Himself On Stage At DNC Convention Party

More details on Al Franken's, uhm, medicated appearance at the Avalon:

Al Franken was the "keynote" speaker at Patrick Kennedy's wrap-up party at Avalon. He had quite obviously had alot to drink - he was visibly swaying on stage, and slurred every word. [He claims he took some "migraine medicine." Funny, we have the exact same prescription!]

The crowd was horrified - you could have heard a pin drop in that place. Not even one smile. It was awful.

My friend heckled him, (words to the effect of, "you're killing it, Al!" Yes, stupid heckle)

Al responded, "Go f**k yourself."


TOPICS: Miscellaneous
KEYWORDS:
Nice people

Actually, Al probably realized how bad the convention actually was.

Reminiscent of the "Franken and Davis" segment on SNL. Pure death.

Franken seems to be nurturing quite a history of insane and out of control behavior.

Oh, dear. Not exactly Dorothy Parker and the Algonquin Round Table, is it...? :)

Can anyone even imagine Limbaugh or Hannity doing something like this? This is the guy that wants to be taken seriously?

Too much Pamprin will do that, I've heard.

Seems to be a Demo standard phrase. Let us never forget who called Paul Frey a F---ing Jew bastard.

nothing like some good clean fun - such as the recreational use of painkillers and alcohol.

Nothing to see here, move along.

Maybe Al got back the actual ratings for Hair America, and it wasn't what he's been telling people.
