Al Franken may prove to be a joke on Blanche Lincoln
The K. Ryan James Blog ^ | 30 Jun 2009 | Kenneth Ryan James

While many will touch on the humor of “funny man” Al Franken now taking his shtick to the Senate, and MSNBC will likely be apoplectic tonight at the concept of 60 Democrat senators now moving forward Barack Obama’s deficit-spending, big government policies through the upper chamber, I submit that the punchline may be at the cost of “conservative” Democrat senators, including Arkansas’s own Blanche Lincoln, who will now have a target painted on them to be the 60th vote on such things as card check, cap and tax and Obamacare.

Making lemonade out of lemons, but this what I was thinking. With this moron all the blue dog rats will have to tow the party line on contentious issues. Sure, a couple of rinos will vote for them, but if the Senate GOP can keep it together, then we can finally show the blue dogs for what they are: facilitators for socialism.

I propose we make this the official photo of the new senator. Like they say, a picture is worth a thousand words. And thank you Minnesota, for making this all possible.

I had hoped voters would realize we don’t or shouldn’t elect nor need another comedian in the Senate. The Justices in MN did. In the end, the joke is on all of us.

If Blanche Lincoln cannot be defeated in 2010, then we all need to be looking for somewhere in exile where we can have some small measure of freedom that will no longer exist in this country. Myanmar and Iran are two places that come to mind.

Our government gets sicker by the day....

If there are some (D)Senators there who are sick of what is going on...switch parties now, ladies or gentlemen.

Do not wait until it is too late to prevent the devastation to follow....either by stupid government actions or civil strife.

I hear the sound of distant thunder...its getting closer by the day.

Now that I see you wrote the article, my apologies for the name calling, it struck a nerve, but seriously, there’s not a conservtive bone in “Blank stare” Lincoln’s liberal body.

I hope the people in Minnesota who sat at home election day, or voted third party enjoy their far Left WackO Al Franken.

That is how I always think of him. He will now make a laughingstock of the state that elected him. How embarrassing for them.

Oh look. Another blogger who joins FreeRepublic to try and drum up his hits. He only posts articles from his website and never joins in any commentary. You, Sir, do not belong here. Go to Huffington Post.

P.S. If you are an American then you are not Mexican. If you are Mexican then we really aren’t interesteed in your opinion of our government. We do not take kindly to self proclaimed hyphenated Americans.

You do understand that in the English language putting quotation marks around a word, for example “conservative,” typically means that the writer is being ironic or sarcastic.

“That is how I always think of him. He will now make a laughingstock of the state that elected him. How embarrassing for them.”

Coleman did a great favor to the people of the state in at least delaying a buffoon from representing them earlier.

My guess he will become best of buddies with Boxer.

It can also mean relative, as in relatively conservative, compared to the full blown liberal commies. There’s nothing relatively nor remotely conservative about our skank liberal senator.

OB and I have got it sorted out.

We are proud Arkansans and proud to say that Ms. Blank is not a conservative.

The Republicans need to do enough filibustering to force Kennedy and Byrd to show up on the floor and cast votes. On a regular basis.
