<\/p>\nSo, Senator Al Franken.\u00c2\u00a0 After the hi-jinx of Cornyn battling down the hatchets for filibustering and as the Norm Coleman court challenges flitter away and dissolve, that’s what you have.\u00c2\u00a0 (Along with, sadly, Senator Burris in a flutter of equal political hi-jinx.)<\/p>\n
Not really the man I’d pick for the job, and a man who’s presence on the ballot\u00c2\u00a0might just\u00c2\u00a0have me pulling for “Lizard People”.\u00c2\u00a0 I’d like to say that Norm Coleman isn’t too bad a man, a Senator perhaps with a tad bit of sleaze as standard but in the grand scheme of party politics as being not the worst it’s hard to justify\u00c2\u00a0animosity toward — but that would describe\u00c2\u00a0just axed\u00c2\u00a0Oregon Senator Gordon Smith –\u00c2\u00a0when I look through\u00c2\u00a0Norm Coleman’s term in the Senate I see that he\u00c2\u00a0did take a strong stance in the trenches of some repugnant Republican causes du jour\u00c2\u00a0— a healthy dose of\u00c2\u00a0UN bashing and the go-to-guy in supporting John Bolton.<\/p>\n
Wander over and about to see reactions and I see a blog post yesterday posted this image, intoning the end of Our Republic.\u00c2\u00a0 For the sense of good taste, I’ve shrunk the image… and it does serve as an argument against Hi-Definition big screen television…<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
How can\u00c2\u00a0a state in these United States have just elected a public official with an image like that circulating around?\u00c2\u00a0 And, given\u00c2\u00a0how Saturday Night Live\u00c2\u00a0has always sort of dragged on through the last half of its 90 minutes, there has to be\u00c2\u00a0many more broad visual\u00c2\u00a0vignettes such as that one out there.\u00c2\u00a0 Indeed, we can expect this image to find its way into an Al Qaeda propaganda any day now, as per this comment.<\/p>\n
You know, our enemies hate us already. Seeing crap like this just makes it easier for them to hate us and for our allies to loose respect for us<\/em><\/p>\n One thing I can say about a photograph of Al Franken wearing\u00c2\u00a0a diaper …<\/p>\n UHH Texas D……..Do you realize that that’s the junior senator from Minnesota wearing a FUCKING DIAPER!? is\u00c2\u00a0to wonder if maybe other Senators\u00c2\u00a0haven’t been photographed in more compromising positions wearing diapers.\u00c2\u00a0 The obvious candidate is Louisiana Senator David Vitter<\/a>, (who, in this last Senate, co-sponsored with Idaho Senator Lary Craig\u00c2\u00a0a Craig – Vitter Marriage Protection Bill<\/a>, just to serve up something for the peanut gallery to laugh at, I suppose)\u00c2\u00a0 but it seems evident that the prostitute he bought services from follow the confidentiality agreement in not taking those photographs — otherwise Larry Flynt or the\u00c2\u00a0National Inquirer would have already showered us with them.\u00c2\u00a0 The upshot is\u00c2\u00a0that al Qaeda will be able to pepper their propanda with multiple\u00c2\u00a0Senators wearing diapers as grown men. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> So, Senator Al Franken.\u00c2\u00a0 After the hi-jinx of Cornyn battling down the hatchets for filibustering and as the Norm Coleman court challenges flitter away and dissolve, that’s what you have.\u00c2\u00a0 (Along with, sadly, Senator Burris in a flutter of equal political hi-jinx.)

\nHe has already made a fool of himself before becoming a senator.
\nDid you ever listen to his libtard ass radio show?*
\nThank you hiram.<\/em><\/p>\n

\n(* I’ll answer that question:\u00c2\u00a0 Yes.\u00c2\u00a0 It was something of a sedative, and it became clearer and clearer that Franken was steering toward a sort of middle of the road (one of his friendly weekly guests was best called “Center – Right”) in prepping for a Senate bid, though with that it also seems clear he was using the show to brush up on policy… the result was always, um… mixed?<\/em>.\u00c2\u00a0 In terms of running for office, it does make him more comfortable than a Randi Rhodes or a Rush Limbaugh.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
