I don't know how anyone can bear watching the Today Show. I could not even read the transcript.

"Treason"

Odd accusation coming from staunch anti-Americans.

Franken: "And now, now, now, now we know he's not and that he is corrupt too so that's, yeah, yeah?"

He's got a career in radio, huh? For how long?

And when will Al Franken and Matt Lauer be submitting themselves to the firing squad for the much more clear cut acts of treason they carry out on a daily basis?

while Lauer just smiled and laughed when left-wing radio host Al Franken predicted the execution of Karl Rove and Lewis Libby, a few weeks ago when Pat Robertson called for the assassination of Venezuela's Hugo Chavez, an anti-American dictator who has cozied up with Iran's ayatollahs and Cuba's communists, Today was outraged enough to lead the show with Robertson's supposed transgression

Does MRC not see ANY difference between a comedian making a joke and a religious leader actually calling for assassination?

outing his wife who's a CIA agent

Since when....1998? When she was pulled out of covert work because of Alrdige Aimes?

Idiot Franken, the conjunction "who's" means "who is", not "who WAS"!

Honestly, these people are dillusional. And, it would be amusing, but it looks like Rove and Libby might be at risk.

When Herr Hillary takes over, she can make Franken head of the SS.

It's cool, man -- situational ethics at work. OK to tighten up sometimes, when it's Karl Rove or someone you're going after.

Eyes on the prize, and all that.

Is this the Al Franken "I'm an Idiot" tour? First Letterman, now the "Today" show? Did Lauer ask Franken how Air America's ratings were?

I thought Lauer was going to faint with excitement.

For as long as George Soros and the MacArthur Foundation keep sticking quarters in the slot.

Double-dog ditto that! Just looking at Franken makes me sick to my stomach!

Matt Lauer, who was in men's clothes today at least, did not ask about the Air America scandal, I assume.

Didnt Sen Pat Leahy reveal CIA agent names at some point? I can't reember the details. Franken probably thinks that was fine though.

Al Franen and Truth are complete strangers, and the last time he wrote a joke that was actually funny was in about 1983.....

So, under the Truth in Advertising laws he should be prosecuted for false advertising for the title of his new book.
