Franklen did just that, and he did it by choice, not duty.
I end up hating these people less when I meet them personnaly, I guess, i see a human being and not just a face or arguement that I wish I was there to take apart.
Al is to be thanked for what he did going to the troops, but he was not the smarter one at the debate. The favoritism of the camera crew, the keeping of Annie's microphone volume lower, the placing of the microphone in front of her face if she pulled it in to speak louder and how it blocked her face on the tv screen behind her....
I understand your comments about meeting someone like him in person, but I don't buy the liberal screed about how they can claim "We support the troops, but not the War." That's a cop out and they know it. That's like someone supporting the Yankee's but not the game of baseball or the Yankee's winning the World Series. The Liberals had their chance to vote against the Iraq War and they came up way short. We are at war now and they still refuse to accept the fact that they lost the Vote in the Senate to give President Bush the authority to wage war against Iraq if they didn't comply with the UN Resolutions, but much like the 2000 election results, they refuse to acknowledge the fact that they lost the Vote
Point well taken. However...Remember that GIF with the goldfish in a blender? And you had a choice to just spin it around slowly?
I picture Al Franken and Michael Moore in that blender...I just HAVE to push that ultra fast button!
That was my initial reaction too, before I heard the routine he did for the troops. Now, at best, I'll give him half credit. Based on his comedy bit, I question his motives.
