    FRANKEN’S BUMBLING ANSWERS FROM LAST EVENING’S DEBATE SOUNDED FAMILIAR

    By Michael B. Brodkorb | October 12, 2008

    This video clip reminds me of Al Franken’s first few answers on jobs and the economy during last evening’s debate.

      Nice try Michael.

      Al Franken’s closing statement was powerful. It boiled down the entire nasty race to a simple proposition.

      Al Franken cares about the issues important to middle class families. It’s just that simple.

      Bravo!

      After eight years of Boy Blunder mangling the English language, it’s simply amazing to hear a GOPer criticize anyone’s oratorical skills.

      Actually, it’s not only “amazing”; it’s also hypocritical.

      Which is what reasonable people have come to expect from today’s GOP.

      And Dan’s commentary in #1 is correct; Franken drove a few more nails into attaching the failed misAdministration of Bush The Lesser firmly on Norm.

      Not that Al needed to; Barkley drove spikes into Coleman earlier in the debate.

      If you liked Bush, and the results of Bushonomics, vote for Norm.

      It happened on his watch.

      Al Franken is a hate sewing asshole. No self-described Minnesotan can vote for Al Franken in good conscience.

      Nobody who votes for Al Franken is voting for the candidate. They are only blindly pulling the lever for the socialism that the Democrat party stands for.

      Norm Coleman is also a dickhead. He lost my vote.

      The Franken campaign has gotten new life by hanging Coleman with a Bush association, when the only thing they’ve had in common is the R after their names. Not by saying Franken is more qualified or would do better. Basically it’s vote for Franken, he’s not a republican. This new idea that he “understands Minnesota middle class familes” is laughable on it’s face. He’s got less claim to be a middle class Minnesotan than Biden does being a working class guy from Scranton.

      He should stick with the “he’s not a republican,” it’s working better.

      No self-described Minnesotan can vote for Al Franken in good conscience.

      I’d suggest that no real Minnesotan with a conscience could vote for such a potty-mouthed, dirty-minded, porn-writing, employee-hating (workers comp), tax-cheating angry man.

      aj, don’t forget that Norm also cheated on his apartment rent, utilities, and SuitCase.

      But, enough with ol’ Smokescreen!

      Now, let’s talk about Minnesota’s next Senator, Al Franken!

      Al Franken’s gonna make a fine Senator, and he won’t cheat on his rent, or his utilities, and Al Franken can afford to buy his own suits.

      It’s gonna be great to dump Coleman, and have two ethical Senators.

      Funny you’re comparing Al Franken to a YouTube superstar when your campaign already has a YouTube superstar of your own now.

    8. Tommy Johnson Says:

      Aaron, are you talking about Governor MooseMeat, or Cullen Sheehan?

      Cullen has views: 147,576 for his performanc; not bad for a local!!!

      Hey - who was that blogger askin’ who’s name is on Coleman’s utility bill for his D.C. apartment?

      It would not surprise me in the least to to see Franken elected Senator from “Minne Soooooo ta”.

      You dumb fucks have an affection for former wrestlers masquerading as left wing politicians. (see Jesse the Body and Paul Wellstone)

      They say bad things come in 3’s and Franken just completes the trifecta.

      Franken might be better compared to the Canadian liberal party leader:

      Michael if Angry Al fumbled his answers post video, audio, or at least a transcript of Frankin doing that.

      Going to the video of an unrealated subject is a cheap shot even if it was moderately funny.

      What part of my assertion is incorrect?

      I’m waiting.
