First choice: Mark Levin
Second choice: Rush.
(Mark only beats out Rush because Rush would be too NICE to Franken)

One of liberals great weakness is, they are so sure they know more than ignorant conservatives, that they never bother to consider any counter arguments, that might be used against them. When they debate an informed conservative, they are forced to respond with ad hominums, logical fallacies or other dodges.

Rush tangles with him daily.... Look at their ratings :)

Not to bring up any past FR controversies or anything, but does anybody think that Harriet Miers would been able to school Al Franken so?

Schooled? More like spanked!! LOL!
I remind Franken of the old adage "It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt."

Not a fan of her as the pick - and she wouldn't have done as well as Scalia, but I've actually listened to his radio talk show - and he is one slow witted man.
He can't speak over 10 words without an ummm, uh, ummm slipping out.
I'd even put my money on one of Miers' staffers.

It shouldn't be any surprise that Scalia had to lecture Al. Al has the intellectual capacity of a three-year-old, after all.

Thank you for the information. I was not aware of that and frankly I'm a little surprised. It seems like I always learn something new on FreeRepublic. From now one, I'll just simply think of Al as sort of a Democratic "rainman" type of character.

I never make the assumption that my opponents are completely braindead. Let me just say that I am no fan of Al Franken and I don't find him funny entertainment-wise either...unlike other libs like Larry David and a few others.
However too many conservatives make the mistake of assuming that people they disagree with politically are morons in everything they do. Franken is dead wrong politically, but he is not a moron. Like everyone else, he is intelligent in certain matters and dumb in others. The others being logic and reason. In the latter case he is joined by millions of other hardcore libs.
These same people might be witty and entertaining dinner or travel companions. They might even be your friends. But they should never be allowed to run the country or influence policy. In matters of national security, economics, crime, or anything else of real import on a national scale, libs are truly wackos.

To: driftless
While your post may be factually accurate regarding Franken's reputation, I'm curious how someone who majored in mathematics and logic could be such a raving liberal?
The Liberal Dogma has to be the most illogical concept ever drawn up!
