Senator-elect Al Franken (D-MN) on Sen. Inhofe calling him a clown: "I don't know how Sen. Inhofe regards clowns, but it might be an incredible compliment."

Shocking that the do as I say not as I do Senator will back the policies of the do as I say not as I do President.
As a clown myself (mostly done for charity these days), I resent this anus being called a clown.
Demo HQ in Minnesota...
“Look we have had a professioanl wrestler for Guv, a professional clown for a Senator...how do we top that?”
Staffer: “How about a mime for the House of Reps?”
HQ: “I think we could make that work! I really do!”
Then apparently you didn’t read his statement ‘clown’!
“I didnt mean to be disrespectful. I dont know the guy, but for a living he is a clown, the senator said.
Thats what he does for a living. “
I think you should avoid using the phrase “make a motion” in the same post with a pic of a grown man in a diaper.
What is wrong with that state?
I figure that his election was because of one of two things. (or both) Either the people of the state are totally stupid or the election was rigged. This is the best they could do? This guy is what we have resigned ourselves to when it comes to a United States Senator?
“I don’t know how Sen. Inhofe regards clowns, but it might be an incredible compliment.”
Actually it insults clowns you big Asshat!
I’ll send $20 to Inhofe if he manages to get Franken to punch him in the face on the Senate floor.
That’s not a clown. That’s a freak.
Hey, we could use a little humor in the Senate! Maybe he will brighten things up and, in time, wake up to the corruption and waste of his fellow democrats and go Blue Dog. We can but hope.

I predict this idiot will be gone from the Senate before his term is up. For starters, he’ll likely try to punch Leader Boehner’s lights out, and he’ll be arrested for assault and battery.
OK, Franken - you’re an asshole. You can be sure that’s not a compliment.
