Al Franken Considers Ultimate Insult to the U.S. Senate
I wish it were another of his lame jokes, but second-rate comedian and obnoxious left-wing fanatic Al Franken really might run for a Minnesota Senate seat.
AP reports that limousine leftists have been donating their pocket change to Franken's political action committee. The contributions tend to be small, considering the absurd wealth of the donors. Larry Hagman gave $555; Barbra Streisand could part with only $500. But the money's adding up. So far Franken has raised $500,000.
Although Franken claims he hasn't decided whether to run, he's already moved his radio show on the moribund Air America to Minnesota in preparation. The PAC money is not supposed to be used in his own campaign. But there's always a way to get around burdensome laws, as his Err America experiences will have taught him.

Looks like Al escaped from the farm

$555? WTF? Maybe Hagman missed by $111.

That pic will make an outstanding campaign poster. Also, is there video of the time when Franken allegedly threw a disabled heckler to the ground at a Democratic rally?

Yeah, sure, maybe the picture will make an "outstanding campaign poster." However, for the moment it's imbedding itself in my memory and I am frantically searching for the delete key. Just not pretty. Nope. It's. Not.

He's not good enough, he's not smart enough, and doggoneit, no one likes him.
