I never laughed at anything Franken did as a comic or author.

I’m still not laughing.

I agree.

It’s complete and utter BS.

“The beginning of the end of the Republic.”

That was already the case but at least it’s clear now.

>>Any chance that Minnesota can send a non-RINO to the Senate in six years? If so, that might be worth watching that assclown, Stuart Smalley, pretend that he’s a Senator.<<

That’s the one aspect that keeps me from being as upset... the people wrongly believe the last 8 years have been conservative and they need “liberal” for “change.” So we were gonna get liberals. This way, at least, change can be correctly be presented as a return to conservative values.

Mn. S.O.S. Mark Ritchie (DEM) is so far up the rectal canal of the Democrat body it’s difficult to believe anyone would expect a different result.

I don’t think that the people of Minnesota did this. We saw news stories breaking through during the election of voter fraud on a very large scale in every state. Since nothing was actually done to stop that, I feel pretty sure that this is the will of the Democratic party, not the people of Minnesota.

Eight years? And who exactly is going to oppose Obama and his minions, the joke called the GOP? You have to be kidding. Bush destroyed the GOP because the GOP owns the coming depression. Conservatives who keep putting their hopes on that failed party fool themselves. The left doesn’t play to get even, they play to win. The RNC is still stuck in the 50’s. Reagan isn’t coming back, he’s dead. Reaganism is buried with him. We had better wake up the we can only save ourselves and it’s time for a new party that is only conservative and not a big tent infiltrated by leftists.

A creepy POS like Franken would never have even been on the radar screen in this race if Americans still had any pride.

“America” is dead and gone. All that’s left is a land mass populated by cretins and parasites who have absolutely no respect for the military and who vote for big government to confiscate money from their neighbors and “redistribute” it to them. It is not an America worth defending anymore.

Whatever. I just live here.
Every man for himself.

Before we start conceding 8 years, just the first two til mid terms are gonna be long enough.

Stolen fair & square, right on the lines of the 2004 WA gubernatorial election.

Yep. You beat me to it. They definitely used the same tricks that we saw in 2004. I saw some pics of votes they gave to Franken that were obvious Coleman votes. Whatever, it takes, I guess...

And I keep my tagline from four years ago...

Coleman needs to make a scene, and soon. Can you imagine any of the Founding Fathers allowing themselves to have an election stolen from them? There would be serious bloodshed, which is why such a thing would never happen back then.

If Republicans can’t stand up to these Democrat criminals, I don’t think they have a future as the protectors of our nation.

That photo should be sent around the world with these lines.

Just think, this clown could possibly be president someday.

America’s government is now undecidedly the biggest joke on this earth.

Anyone desiring to come here are wasting their time because the American dream everyone looks for no longer exist.

It’s a laughing stock that goes to the highest “payer”.

I did read this post; but honestly, have avoided such reporting as of late. Hoped the Minnesota insult ended with Keith Ellison; but nooooo; and now, just cannot stomach any more info re Alfranken and the total disenfranchisement of Democracy by Soros/Dem machine. It is as painful as it is sickening.

There surely should be enough good people left in Minnesota to care enough to revolt. . .or so, we should like to believe. . .

Let the Democrats have no excuses. They are in full control. There is no one to blame except themselves (and those who voted for them).

Now they are responsible if a US city goes up in smoke because they chose not to listen to terrorist calls into/out of the country. It is a simple fact that Bush kept us safe for 7 years after 9-11. Something nobody believed was possible.

If they want to redistribute wealth they can start by not bailing out the ultra wealthy who made bad investments. They already self distributed what they had...

If they want to raise taxes in a near depression they see reality at point blank range - a real depression with real suffering. All with their name on it.

So have at it.

This is what a state of people elected. Sure, being from Massachusetts, I have no room to point fingers, that's true. But even discounting a recount...there were enough people in that GOD-FORSAKEN-STATE to make it even close enough for a recount.

Look well upon this, folks.

THIS man inhabits the same halls, has the same status and privileges as great men such as Henry Clay, John Calhoun, Daniel Webster, Joseph McCarthy, James Monroe and Barry Goldwater.

THIS is what we have come to.

It’s going to be a long eight years.

Admire your optimism. . .
