Conservative-baiting comedian Al Franken says he hopes the drug allegation against Rush Limbaugh isn't true, "but if it is, I'm looking forward to the perp walk."
The author of "Rush Limbaugh is a Big Fat Idiot" said that should the talk-show host be arrested, he'll make sure to watch the spectacle on TV.
"I'll be switching channels to get it from every angle," he said. "My favorite part is when they push their heads to get them down into the [police] car."
Franken, who is on a book tour touting his latest conservative-blasting tome, "Lies and the Lying Liars who Tell Them," was sympathetic to Limbaugh.
"I don't like Rush. I don't like what he does but I don't wish that [drug addiction] on anybody," he said.
Of the flap over black quarterback Donovan McNabb, the left-leaning comic scoffed at Limbaugh's explanation that his comments were aimed at the media and not about race. "He was saying Donovan is overrated because he's black," Franken said. "News to Rush: That's racist."

Well I hope he holds his breath waiting for it.
Regardless of the facts, first time offenders with good lawyers DO NOT go to jail.
Franken will get to see pigs fly before he sees a Rush perp walk.

Ah, yes. They ever compassionate liberals.
This episode has exposed them for the vicious, vile, hate mongers they really are.

Al Franken is a big fat liar! He's gleeful over the remote possibility of seeing Rush Limbaugh arrested and led away on television. I'll bet Franken has already creamed in his pants!
To: The G Man
My first thought was how mean the libs think Republicans/conservatives are,how over the top our Ann Coulter is. Is Franken the spokesman for the kindly liberals?

Franken wants to see Rush do a perp walk, eh. Well, tact and delicacy prohibits me from saying what I would like to see Franken do.

O'Reilly just tore Franken a new orifice for taking such brazen advantage of the Rush situation, and tore CNN two new orifices for giving so much airtime to Franken and proving themselves to be Democratic partisans.

The Left doesn't really believe in due process or the presumption of innocence, any more than they believe in the rest of the Constitution. Come the Revolution, its usefulness will be ended and it will go into the shredder.

He's too angry and too ugly to have any women in his life, so his pants get it all?
To: Brian S
"I'm looking forward to the perp walk." My guess is that anyone who talks this way probably has his own closet of skeletons, and is one Courtesy-of-Rush private detective investigation away from a perp walk himself. Come to think of it, that glassy stare of Franken's . . . now we know who was buying those tens of thousands of pills that Rush's maid was selling!

Franken and the SNL gang of no talent used cocaine and other drugs openly in the hey day of SNL and they were not charged. Franken should be careful what he wishes for.

I believe Al Franken is related to CNN reporter Bob Franken.

Regardless of what happens to Rush, Franken will wake up the next day ugly and stupid.

Franken should be careful what he wishes for.And it helps to explain why SNL reruns are excruciatingly unfunny. For example, Al Franken playing a brain-damaged person for laughs (there is liberal compassion for you).

If it wasn't for Rush, Franken wouldn't have a career and still be a washed up has-been.
