IT’S LAUGHABLE…

By Michael B. Brodkorb | January 5, 2009

that Al Franken wants to represent all Minnesotans in the U.S. Senate, but he’s not interested in counting every Minnesotan’s vote for U.S. Senator.

    Well, I’m interested in seeing justice done – bring on the FBI, and PerpWalk ol’ Smokescreen.

    Sounds like a rant. The first of many we should expect to see over the next six years. And anyway, was it not the Supreme Court who ruled against Coleman today in refusing to count the other absentees? They don’t represent Minnesota either? And neither does Norm anymore, since they locked his Senate office today.

    WHO DO WE HAVE LEADING US

    Well, let’s look: the only – and I mean ONLY – statewide elected GOPer is Pawlenty.

    The GOP has pretty much imploded, because – with republiCons like Ron Carey leading the party – GOP now stands for GreedOverPrinciples.

    Better warm up the pickup, just in case some SuperAmerica parking lots need a touchup.

    Ya know, Scrotee, if you were hardworking and industious, like me, you could own your own business, too!

    But I appreciate your envy; bein’ an Achiever is somethin’ you’ll never be.

    Funny, Mikey, you weren’t saying that back when Norm was telling Al to concede….

  8. Yoni C. Says:

    Swiftee,

    wow you are a tool. Michael, what does Swiftee’s last comment have to do w/ the post above?

    you are laughable!

    Senator Al Franken, say it out loud Michael, Senator Al Franken!

    IT’S LAUGHABLE…

    . . . that former Senator Norm Coleman wanted to represent all Minnesotans in the U.S. Senate, but wasn’t interested in counting every Minnesotan’s vote for U.S. Senator.

    Thanks again, Mike, for your hard work that most assuredly cinched Al’s election. We couldn’t have done it without you!

  10. Tommy Johnson Says:
    January 5th, 2009 at 6:21 PM

    Yoni, Swiftee’s the base. Just like the Alaska republiCons voted for a convicted felon, bootlickers like Scrotee will do anything they can to return The Fourth Most Corrupt Senator, ol’ Smokescreen himself, to maintain power.

    And it’s the base, like Scrotee, that have caused the electorate to reject today’s GreedOverPrinciples party.

    Me, too – for the drug addict tax cheat who put his employees at risk for not paying workers comp.

  14. PlymouthDem Says:
    January 5th, 2009 at 6:35 PM

    Mike,

    Why did Coleman veto some of the 1350 ballots independent election officials noted were improperly rejected? Did Coleman not want to count all every Minnesota vote?

    Could republicans be any more hypocritical today?

  15. lojasmo Says:
    January 5th, 2009 at 6:56 PM

    I look forward to Coleman’s contest when Franken argues that EVERY rejected absentee ballot be examined.

    Perhaps you’ll shut your damned mouth then.

  16. lojasmo Says:
    January 5th, 2009 at 6:59 PM

    I just have to point out that Ritchie’s largely REPUBLICAN canvass board, and the largely REPUBLICAN supreme court have repeatedly thrashed Coleman and his malingering “lawyers” in their every feckless attempt to con this election.

    Delicious.

    Bwahahahahaha!

  17. Tommy Johnson Says:

    “Could republicans be any more hypocritical today?”

    Sadly, the answer is “(cheney) YEAH!!!”

    There is no low too low for today’s republiCon party.

    Zelly, there’s NEVER been any indications that Rammer’s a tax cheat.

    From the Strib:

    “After Democratic Sen. Paul Wellstone was killed in a plane crash during his 2002 campaign, it was discovered that his staff lacked workers’ comp coverage. State Labor Commissioner Jane Volz was forced to resign in 2003 for failing to obtain coverage for her law firm.

    Other campaigns have been cited and fined for failing to provide workers’ comp coverage, including that of Third District Rep. Jim Ramstad, Second District Rep. John Kline, and Sixth District Rep. Mark Kennedy, all Republicans, and gubernatorial candidates Roger Moe, a DFLer, and Tim Penny of the Independence Party. Strib

    Oh, wait – that hypocritical bootlickin’ AverageSchmuck wasn’t talkin’ about HIS party’s drug addicted, worker’s comp cheats, was he?

    “Hypocrisy, Thy Party Is GOP”

    I truly wish this were a video blog, so I could see if Michael even tried to type this with a straight face.

    Norm Coleman has done everything in his power to disenfranchise the voters in this election, right up to the point when he was told that the voters he wanted to bypass were his only hope for salvation.

    Then, just like when he switched parties to join the republican surge of the time, he suddenly began to care about the voters again.

    Norm is an opportunist that few on either side of the aisle will truly miss.

    Of course he didn’t type it with a straight face! He didn’t type it at all. Ron Carey emailed it to him, he cut and pasted, voila!

    Well today I finally got an answer to the most obvious question. Unfortunately it took the WSJ to report it.

    I can’t seem to find the article that Drudge had linked but it seem 25 precincts had more voters then signers.

    I have no idea the remaining idealogical makeup of the MN Supreme Court. I do have a hard time believing they could over look such blatant fraud.

    So you commie lib, Franken ass licker’s should not be so quick to pull your pud. This ain’t over yet.

  27. TitanTrader Says:
    January 5th, 2009 at 11:05 PM

    Found it:

    “Under Minnesota law, election officials are required to make a duplicate ballot if the original is damaged during Election Night counting. Officials are supposed to mark these as “duplicate” and segregate the original ballots. But it appears some officials may have failed to mark ballots as duplicates, which are now being counted in addition to the originals. This helps explain why more than 25 precincts now have more ballots than voters who signed in to vote.”

    I saved it in my achives to throw in your tarded faces should franken steal this thing.

    Does anybody think Norm might try to win his seat back in 2020?

    Also, as a DFLer, I honestly think that Norm Coleman has the class it will take to concede this race on Tuesday afternoon.

    You heard it here first!

    Any of you liberals hear of the expression buy low sell high…?

    You seem to over reach your ambitions.

    Ambitions overreached that cause you all to stumble and tumble and at the very end that always lead back to that same old winding road…on a donkey…ass backwords…and trailing a blind yellow dog.

  30. danbrome Says:

    Norm is a class act.

    He will concede the race to Stuart Smalley this afternoon.

    Ship it!
