Example:
Stuart: ...in case after case, the Roberts court has put not just a thumb, but a fist, on the scale in favor of corporations. A fist with brass knuckles. Which weigh a lot. Because they're brass.
He knows how dense his constituency is or he wouldn't have felt the need to explain that brass knuckles "weigh a lot because they're brass."
“It was really hard to tell which was SNL and which was not SNL.”
I know what you mean. I’m thinking the Stuart Smalley personality is the real Al Franken.
Al certainly is a comedian in addition to being a four-eyed idiot, and illegitimate senator.
Patton. General George S. Patton.
Pick a quote of his, almost any quote, and that’s what I’m talking about.
We’re in a war here. The fight of our lives. If you think we are not, if you think the very foundation of our country is not being threatened and attacked by a very clever and persistant army that would destroy us, enslave us, then I suggest you give it some more thought. Time to gird our loins. Time to buck up. Time to think in military metaphors, even if we are not using firearms.
We are currently fighting this war on soap boxes and at ballot boxes. If we win here, we will not have to move on one day to the ammo box. But we will only win at this point if we realize that this is a war, an assualt by tyrrants who would enslave or annihilate us. If enemies like Franken are afraid of us, I celebrate it, and my mind goes to thoughts of Patton, who knew how to fight and win.
Oh, I thought you meant Franken REMINDED you of Patton.
Hence, “I beg your pardon?”
what the hell does he know about anything except diapers maybe?
...for those interested. :D
Thank you - that makes sense now. I appreciate you responding.
