Al Franken: Bush & GOP put Americans in backseat of car; then drove it off cliff
Examiner ^ | October 24, 2010 | Marc Schenker

Posted on 10/24/2010 5:15:55 AM PDT by Suvroc10

Al Franken says that G.W. Bush put all Americans into the back seat of a proverbial car, then drove it off a cliff, just before jumping out to save his own skin. Tortured and smart-alecky attempt at an analogy aside for a second, the full-time, four-eyed Senate clown himself, Al Franken, was speaking at yesterday’s fire-up-the-demoralized-Democrat-voters rally in Minneapolis, where both Barack Obama and the Democrats’ gubernatorial candidate, Mark Dayton, were participants also. Dayton is locked in a statistical dead heat with GOP candidate Tom Emmer, so what do those geniuses called Democrats do? Why, bring in the Senate’s full-time, four-eyed clown to fire up a totally misguided crowd of mostly college kids (who won’t bother voting anyway) by trotting out that tired and discredited line of the "Blame Bush" attack-mantra, naturally! Ahhhh, watching Democrats in action…kind of like watching a whole bunch of people who want to lose control of both chambers of Congress.

Tell a lie often enough and it becomes the truth. Their oldest tactic in their book.

Pray for the Election

Was the car in “D” or “R” when it went off the cliff? I thought so...

Al thinks it had nothing to do with 50 years and trillions spent on great society programs?

He doesn’t think taking government jobs that historically paid 50% of the private sector wages and making them union, raising pay 600% with some retiring at 50 with 80% pay isn’t a problem when that costs trillions as well.

They forget to look at lots of the sources of fiscal problems in this country because they feel THAT WAS GOOD.

Just because some people think they had good intent, doesn’t mean a disaster isn’t a disaster.

What really happened is that a huge percentage of conservatives gladly climbed into the backseat while George Bush drove the Republican Party over the cliff.

... but it didn’t crash hard, it was still drivable if somewhat dented. Then Obama came along, put it up on blocks, stole all the wheels and ripped out the stereo. Then he set it on fire.

And to think this tool was a writer on “Saturday Night Live” back when it was really good.
