Obama Fully Supports Al Franken

**satire warning**
Barack Obama today came out in support of the Minnesota Senate bid of comedienne Al Franken over rejected former Senator Norm Coleman.
It's time that we stopped counting the votes, now that all the votes that we want counted got counted, Obama said.
Al Franken has shown that he's got The Right Stuff for my administration, Obama said. Number one, Franken's a tax cheat, and therefore uniquely qualified to serve in my new government.
I would have named him to my cabinet, but I found out that there is no Department of Leftist Hate.
I know that I said yeasterday that "I'm frustrated with myself" for unintentionally sending a message that there are "two sets of rules" for paying taxes, "one for prominent people and one for ordinary folks."
But we need another Democrat zombie in the United States Senate to vote for higher taxes (which members of my party won't pay, of course). So, I'm going to make a "frustration exception" in Al Franken's case. This is similar to the "lobbyist exception" I made in the case of William Lynn.
Al Franken is too good a man to pass up just because he may have cheated on his taxes. Besides, Franken will mindlessly vote in any tax increase "for ordinary folks" that I propose, because God knows that he won't be paying it. **uhhhh, chuckle**
Besides, the sooner we get Al Franken into the Senate, the less chance there will be for Minnesotans to wake up and demand that Al Franken conduct a "tax recount" on his shady personal finances.

"I take responsibility for this mistake," he [Obama] told Fox News.
OK, I think Minnesotans need a Tax Recount in the case of Al Franken. Like Tommy "TaxCheat" Daschle, there are a whole lot of unanswered questions in the Franken tax case.

"Comedienne"?
Well, maybe . . .

Obama is consistent with supporting tax cheats.

I find it even hard to look at Al Franken.
He gives me the creeps.
To: an amused spectator
The only reason Zero wants Franken in the Senate is to maintain an IQ level there that's lower than his own.
Franken should lower the overall average by at least 30 points, easy....

“I take responsibility for this mistake,”
I think we’re all gonna have to get used to hearing that line. It earns him easy, no-cost cred from the press.
Plus, he’s gonna make a lot of em.

Supports Franken?
It would appear the little zer0 has enough grape soda & pork rinds on his plate now.
Besides, should Franken need support he can buy a jockstrap.
Of course he would need something to support, I would think.

This is your issue. You don't need to
even mention the Fair Tax.
We can drive a semi through this hole in the Democrat/income taxers defense lines.
Just keep hammering the fact that these jokers vote in thousands of pages of Byzantine tax rules, but they WON'T follow those same rules themselves. And they'll give you the finger while they're cheating on their taxes.
