It reminds me of what Bobby Kennedy used to say: “Nobody hates like a liberal.”

Don’t you just love it when left wingers like Frank Alan and MDE Exposer go after another left winger like Shawn Towle.

Also, interesting legal commentary from noted libel law scholar Frank Alan. (This is the only time you will see the words “Frank Alan” and “scholar” in the same sentence.)

What Frank Alan says. Times ten.

Was THAT income reported??!?

To prove defamation, Shawn would have to take the survey, and get a result other than what I suggested would happen. Then, he would have to prove that I knowingly said something I knew to be untrue. Only then would the suit be allowed to progress. Since I am quite certain he couldn’t get a result other than what I suggested would occur, I feel comfortable with my statement, and my legal position.

But thanks for caring for me,

“The challenge of an at-home blowout is what inspired, former runway model and wife of U.S. Senator Norm Coleman”

Is that not a true statement? Is she not the wife of Norm Coleman?

It says nothing of Norm’s campaign, Norm endorsing the product, or anything else. It says she’s married to him.

Big fikken deal. Jeez, get a life, idiot.

Hey! I’m more than willin’ to jump into the sewer you republiCons play in!!!

But, explain to me why Laurie, who shills her senatorial hubby on her website, isn’t fair game?

The challenge of an at-home blowout is what inspired, former runway model and wife of U.S. Senator Norm Coleman, Laurie Coleman to invent the Blo & Go, a hair-dryer holster. For years, Coleman had been jury-rigging wire coat hangers into holders for her blow-dryer so she could use both hands to style her hair. “You go on a trip with senators and you have 45 minutes and you have to be ready to go,” says Coleman, who doesn’t have the luxury of traveling with a hairstylist. “Norm’s not going to blow-dry my hair.”

I see you and Two-Putt are going to personally attack anyone… “His personal behavior…” ???

Frank Alan, YOU should hope that Shawn Towle’s lawyers don’t give you a phone call for that kind of insinuation.

Keep writing, Frank Alan, I am pretty sure that the attorneys representing the accountants that Franken threw under the bus will be happy to offer their services to Shawn Towle!

I may not be Shawn’s biggest fan, but, I have a great deal of respect for some guy who has been out there, in the public arena for as long as he has, being right — and being wrong — and still trying to make it work.

You didn’t.

Take a survey of legislators, lobbyists and other capitol regulars, and you will find that Shawn would easily outdistance any competitor in the contest for who is the most despised person at the capitol. His personal behavior and his frequent mistakes have made him more and more irrelevant as the years go by, I guess you could say he is an older, more despised version of what Michael Brodkorb is rapidly becoming.

This one, is from the Washington Post, just a coupla months ago….

“In 2004, Coleman was pictured in this newspaper wearing a corset and garter — and posing poutily in front of a four-poster bed — all in the name of promoting her acting career. Coleman no longer is acting, she says, but “if something fun would come up, I’d pursue it.”

Coleman’s voice registers shock — and dismay– that anyone would make such a connection. “I didn’t think of that,” she says. And then she goes further to point out that the name wasn’t even her idea. It came out of a committee. It was all in the brainstorming, during which “Freedom Styler” was rejected. And so it went: You get your hair blown out. You need a blowout. You get blown . . . out. And then you go. Bingo: “Blo & Go!”

How much hasn’t Laurie Coleman reported?

Even if Al is knocked out, this blo ‘n go’s “got legs”….

You need to be a student of history, my friend.

Checks and Balances was the website that widely reported information from the Wellstone Campaign and DFL Party in 2002.

In addition, there is NOBODY who talks to more Democrats on Capitol Hill, or who has better connections with Democratic leaders, opinion leaders, delegates, alternates, etc, than Shawn Towle.

Regardless of what you may think of Shawn, you dismiss him and nearly 20 years of knowing what Democrats talk about better than anyone else in the blogosphere.

But, then again, Shawn Towle and Michael Brodkorb do share a similar desire for inaccuracy.
