CA: Al Franken Book Signing -- Pasadena 10/22
Vroman's/Caltech ^ | September 26, 2003

Posted on 09/26/2003 12:57:28 PM PDT by lainie

Event:
Wednesday, October 22, 2003 7:00 PM
AL FRANKEN discusses and signs Lies & the Lying Liars Who Tell Them
Location: Caltech's Beckman Auditorium
Co-sponsored by Caltech

For the first time since his own classic Rush Limbaugh Is a Big Fat Idiot and Other Observations, Franken trains his subversive wit directly on the contemporary political scene. Now, the "master of political humor" (Washington Times) destroys the myth of liberal bias in the media, and exposes how the Right shamelessly tries to deceive. This event is co-sponsored by Caltech and will be held at Beckman Auditorium where seating is free and available on a first come, first served basis.

Who in their right mind thinks Al Franken has anything significant to say about politics?

Easy, he did it at Harvard, at a center run by a Pulitzer Prize winner who claims Franken's book is a serious work. Judging from Franken's chapter titles, it should win a "F@*king Pulitzer" Prize. Put Al in there will all those distinguihed New York Times reporters.

I hope the next Jason Blair that decides he should be "Burning Down My Master's House" nails the door shut before he strikes the match.

Arguably, their clarity on planet Earth is pretty well-defined, too, these days.

Did you get a load of the big fat idiot book being labeled "classic?"

...During the CLINTON Administration AP quickly received a Pulitzer Prize for its bogus story...

...which was just as quickly enhanced on TV by Friend of HILLARY anchorman TOM BROKAW...

...about a Massacre of Korean Civilians by our U.S. 7th Cavalry at the Bridge of NO GUN RI during the Opening Days of the Korean War.

...TOM BROKAW & AP both gave great Media credance to NO GUN RI "Witness" ED DAILY who this year was sentenced to serve 4 years in federal prison for defrauding the VA out of over $400,000 in Post Traumatic Stress Benefits because of a Massacre he "Witnessed" at NO GUN RI...

...that NEVER happened.

...And that's over $400,000 DAILY was also sentenced to return to the VA.


-AP still must return it's bogus Pulitzer.

-BROKAW must also apologize to all of us and especially our past, present and future Protectors of the U.S. 7th Cavalry...

...for his not giving us all..

.."JUST the FACTS, Ma'am".. when he's supposed to.

No one has refuted with documentation any of Al Franken's book. I just read demogogery and the same hate that was tendered to us by the leftists about Ann Coulter. Has anyone got any solid documentation that exhibits the lies or spin alleged in Franken's book? We need solid examples. I have run into this and cannot debate since none Franken's book can be proved to be false so far..Help.

So, Franken's having a signing of his autobiography. As for lies of Franken-I don't have any of his books, but judging from tv, I hear him just say nasty stuff about Republicans. There's not much substance there, but it would be great for someone with knowledge of what he says to show his lies. I know it would likely take a lifetime, but I'd love for him to go against Limbaugh. But we know he avoided Laura Ingraham!

Prankin' Al Franken is an expert at cooking up Frankenpranks, which are actually a rotten form of baloney.

9/7/03 Al Franken says to Howard Kurtz --- My letter to Ashcroft was not a lie...it was a prank.

Another Frankenprank, from Bozell's Entertainment Column -- 09/26/2003 -- When Comedians Play Mean -- Media Research Center

Franken’s trip to Bob Jones University with a fake son (his real one wouldn’t play the gag) to try and trip up the wacky Christians and suggest that maybe they could bend their wacky rules for some major donations. Their college guide wouldn’t bend from his “path to Christ.” Franken summed up: “A good honest day’s work done, lying to God-fearing people. We’d sleep well tonight.”
