Re: “He probably made varsity because he joined the team.”

Yes, you might be right.

On the other hand, every good wrestler he every faced was trying to destroy him in record time because losing to Franken would have wiped out any chance of going to a major school.

I have no idea how tough Franken was, but I guarantee that every guy he ever faced was trying to take Franken’s head off.

#21 From the looks of stewart I’d say they succeeded

I bet he loved having his head stuck in some guys crotch. After all it’s what he’s been doing to Obama since he got to Washington.

That smarmy look on his face would be motivation for anyone to knock him on his ass.

Franken actually began his attack by noting that as a doctor Price must have taken the Hippocratic Oath which pledges to “first do no harm”, and then asked why Price would want to own tobacco stocks which are so harmful - pathetic - trying to make it sound as though Price had violated his oath as a physician because of his stock purchases - maybe senators should include a first do no harm clause in their oath of office - I’ll bet lots of them would quickly violate it, Senator Franken....

I once looked at a list of the companies I am invested in through my mutual funds. The list was a dozen pages long in small print. I suspect I own a piece of every publicly traded company.

No fan of Franken, but FTR, the Blake School is one of the best private prep schools in MN, and near St. Louis Park.

Say Al tell us about how you stole an election and denied those that voted for your opponent their representative?
All, as a liar and thief how do you face anyone?

"Al Franken Criticizes Tom Price for Holding Tobacco Stocks He Owns Too"

Smarter to invest in burning tobacco than in the burning house you got with US Savings bonds during the obama years.

Isn’t Obama a smoker? Did he ask that question to BO?

“Franken was on the varsity wrestling team in high school in Minneapolis.”

Should have been on the men’s squad.
