And Franken Makes 60
Pajamas Media ^ | July 1 | Rick Moran

As a political writer and blogger, I applaud the decision of the Minnesota Supreme Court that effectively made Alan Stuart Franken the junior senator from Minnesota for the next six years.

Of course, it’s not such a good thing for Republicans, considering that the Democrats have added another body to their already huge majority. But Franken in the Senate will pay dividends for both the party and us bloggers far into the future, as long as he remains above ground and has the ability to open his mouth — all the better to stick his foot in it.

Al Franken is a bat guano crazy liberal who has more in common with the wild-eyed radical leftist fringe of the Democratic Party than your run-of-the-mill liberal like John Kerry or Ted Kennedy. But what will make him such a great target will be his rabid, unbridled, hateful partisanship. Al Franken has made it crystal clear in his incarnations as comedy writer, radio host, and author that he loathes Republicans and conservatives. It is a pathological, almost clinical condition that will explode from time to time in bitter denunciation of the opposition, supplying bloggers and commentators with a cornucopia of material....

The Left wants us to all get in a tizzy because of Sen Franken.

Honestly, the best thing we can do is ignore him now.

Actually, it make 62; those idiots from Maine might well be on the [D] ticket.

This guy would have applauded Himmler delegating some of his work to Heydrich.

Does he really think the media will shine any negative light on Franken? He could sacrifice dogs twenty four hours a day in the senate chamber and the Asspress would call him a sympathetic lover of suffering animals.

“And Franken Makes 60”

Not really.

Byrd and Kennedy are out. That makes 58 for now.

I’m just disgusted that they’ve actually stolen another election.

I hope the addition of FrankenStupid enboldens the libs to push for card-check, FOCA, amnesty, etc. immediately.

Sam Adams was not unhappy the Boston Massacre happened because it gave him a public relations victory. Likewise, the public will have to take some severe punches before waking up.

“I’m just disgusted that they’ve actually stolen another election.”

YES! I too am appalled at the success rate of election theft by Democrats. It’s incredible, and yet it isn’t even a topic of discussion beyond a grumbling here, or there by an individual.

I don’t see any attempts at persuit of action against the Democrat thieves either.

It’s incredible!

He'll generate as much coverage as the Duke pedophile case.

I wonder if anyone has started or thought of starting an “Al Franken censure pool”? I don’t think he has enough self control to even stay out of trouble within his own party...

Exactly...let them have every thing they want. Oppose it...vote against it...and make a CLEAR PRECISE case on why its wrong. It will be undeniable in the not too distant future as to why all these things were bad policy...even with a MSM accomplice. It will be a millstone around there neck.

I am happy with them having their entire agenda. Let us prove once and for all that we are right and they are wrong...and in '10 and '12...beat every one of them over the head with it.

Lets start by giving them cap and trade. 15% unemployment ought to set real well with the average joe in PN and CA.

They’ll wheel in Kennedy and Byrd, embalmed and prop them up in their coffins if their votes are needed to pass cap-n-trade and national death care.

You are correct!! Something like “Weekend at Barneys.”

It should be hilarious.
