This is a guy who doesn't understand that he could have sent it to the NYT instead, and it would have been published as satire, and he'd have been lauded by his lame contemporaries.

Fox Loses Bid to Stop Sale of Franken Book

It looks like FOX lost in the courts.

Sean Hannity talked today about Franken having an insane temper tantrum about him and Limbaugh some months back. This happened to O'Reilly (who I detest) too. Makes me wonder if Franken is mentally ill. (How 'bout it guys?)

From that letter, "I have found that kids respond best to total honesty."

That's funny, anyone I've known who was on that "total honesty" kick was just using it as an excuse to be rude and insulting to people.

Thanks for the heads up!

[MEG33]

I love it!

[hellinahandcart]

Thanks; I could NOT remember the name of that book.

If he is as amorally vile as Baldwin, he might feel as bad about this as Baldwin felt after his "humor" gibes about Hyde and his family. The worst of the left expose themselves without any self-consciousness.

If there's one thing we know about the Democratic Party mindset in the last quarter century, it's that they'll let you get away with just about anything as long as you swear fealty to The Party.

History repeats itself:

"An organization, however streamlined and efficient, is made up of erring human beings, and in those years when Hitler was shaping his party to take over Germany's destiny he had his fill of troubles with his chief lieutenants, who constantly quarreled not only among themselves but with him."

"He, who was so monumentally intolerant by his very nature, was strangely tolerant of one human condition - a man's morals. No other party in Germany came near to attracting so many shady characters. As we have seen, a conglomeration of pimps, murderers, homosexuals, alcoholics and blackmailers flocked to the party as if to a natural haven."
William Shirer, The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, 30th Anniversary edition, pp 173

Let's forget about Franken for a while...just for the heck of it.

The letter looks like it must have been typed on either
an old manual typewriter or possibly chiseled by hand with
sculpting tools on a rock.

Aside from being mentally ill, he is also apparently guilty of federal crime of mail and wire fraud. last time I heard, using the post in a fraudulent manner was a federal crime. Put him in the slammer.
