		<description>After reading this, I find myself even laughing harder at those of you who thinks a man like this qualifies as a US Senator/mentor/ambassador/public servant.  You must have an IQ of about 50 to find this stuff funny.  What qualifies for moral integrity anymore?  Al can do all the stand-up he wants, he can write all the smut he wants...that&#039;s freedom of speech.  He, however, should not be rewarded with one of the highest positions in our government.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t know if you all heard this or not, but Al Franken .... is a COMEDIAN. 

Franken wrote this to be funny, not to objectify women. It&#039;s not real. Now, David Vitter likes to illegally pay real women to really have sex with him. After he takes off his diaper (no joke). Ya&#039;ll know about Larry Craig messing around in public places where children frequent. And what about Mark Foley, who took advantage sexually of underage boys who worked for him in Congress?

But yeah, a comedic article in Playboy magazine involving a fantasy threesome and futuristic cyber-blowjobs are what you should really be upset about.</description>

		<description>I guess this constitutes humor to many democrats out there. It sounds like he is confused. It sounds as if he doesn&#039;t understand what turns a lady on. I feel bad for his wife and family. If he is so much in la la land to not foresee stuff like this coming out, then he not only doesn&#039;t have the maturity to be senator, he doesn&#039;t have the judgment either. What does he expect?</description>

		<description>I found this far less offensive than Norm Coleman&#039;s ad for a cosmetic dental practice.  Love those bright whites above those dingy yellows.  Must have been too cheap to do the whole mouth.</description>

		<description>There are futurists who say by 2025 there will be robots that&#039;ll make women unhappy sexually with human men and vice versa. Who would you rather have working on this issue in the Senate than Al Franken?  
I know who I want, a guy who like Al who can at least laugh at himself, and anyone who thinks cybersex is better than the real thing.</description>

		<description>I never thought Travis Smiley was capable of having sex, it&#039;s good to know he can at least do the Virtu-Screw to relieve his aching balls.

That said; the bigger ball he needs to ease is the tax-evasion ball.  Let&#039;s hope he can handle the IRS&#039;s Iron Maiden grasp, it&#039;s a real cum-downer.</description>

		<description>[...] Michael Brodkorb at MDE has excerpts of Franken&#8217;s venture in Playboy; needless to say, it&#8217;s not safe for work. As satire, it&#8217;s not terribly remarkable, except to belittle the fantasy letters Playboy&#8217;s own subscribers might write. He uses graphic language and treats women as objects, which is to say that it fits in with the rest of the magazine and the Hefner oeuvre. The two most objectionable passages talk about his 12-year-old son using the Internet to write a report about bestiality and some references to oral sex, the latter of which has McCollum particularly incensed.

		<description>It&#039;s misleading to publish parts of the article without context.  You can&#039;t judge the contents of the article without reading the entire thing.  He might be critizing online porn.  He might be approving of it.  I have no idea without reading the full article.</description>

		<description>This isn&#039;t very funny, is one problem that could make it more embarrassing for Franken. Without being funny it just comes across juvenile. I think I get the kind of flat reporting style he was going for, interspersed with graphic-ness but somehow it doesn&#039;t work. The graphicness just kind of plops down and lays there. 

I don&#039;t much like the red highlighting of the particularly salacious bits. The red type makes it hard to get in the flow while reading.

That&#039;s right â€“ hard. Real, real hard.</description>

		<description>This reminds me of the religious right wingnuts who endlessly prowl the dirty book stores for evidence of our crumbling society, and repeatedly air film footage of the San Francisco Gay Pride Parade--all the while rubbing their own crotches.

When are you going to publish excerpts from Lynne Cheney&#039;s lesbian novel?</description>

		<description>This story fits in perfectly with one of MDE&#039;s overarching themes: if there&#039;s no real news, just make some up!

This was written years and years ago as a joke. Who cares? Meanwhile, Norm Coleman is accepting thousands of dollars from corrupt dictatorships overseas--now THAT&#039;S real news!</description>
