PORN-O-RAMA’S PAIN STILL LINGERS

By Ryan Flynn | January 9, 2009

I received this invitation to a fundraiser for Congresswoman Betty McCollum.  One thing jumps out at me as I read the list of sponsors, who happen to be a who’s who of local Democrats.  Al Franken is absent from the list, coincidence?  I think not.

Congresswoman McCollum rightfully brought up Franken’s lewd and disgusting past as a comedian in her hesitation in endorsing him for the US Senate.  She has since called for Franken to be immediately seated, even though he has won nothing.  Good enough to be seated but not good enough to be listed as a sponsor?

###

Please join your hosts

Senator Amy Klobuchar

Congressman Keith Ellison and Kim Ellison

Mayor Chris Coleman and Connie Coleman

Mayor R.T. Ryback and Megan O’Hara

Congresswoman Betty McCollum

Friday, January 9th

The Question is, is the Congresswoman keeping Franken from her event, or is Franken refusing to help a Democratic member of the Minnesota Congressional delegation?

    Well, first off, Franken did win the election and that number was certified. Coleman is contesting Franken winning. Your misinformation doesn’t help the process.

    Secondly, how do you really make a story out of Franken not being a host at someone’s fundraiser? MDE is really tanking even worse now compared to the last few months.

    And by the way Flynn, you did vote for Klobuchar, right?

    If Franken is successful in stealing the Senate seat, I predict that the Senate will create a new line item for their operations budget:

    Rubber gloves and anti-bacterial wipes.

    Say, Aairhead?

    Aren’t you supposed to be polishing something for Al right now?

    Better toddle off, little gerbil, you don’t want to make daddy Al angry!

    Why would Al be angry if he just won a seat in the United States Senate for 6-12 years?

    That’s it, I’m gone.

    And I’m never coming back! Never, you can’t make me!

    Just because the vote is “certified” does not mean the evaluation of ballots was done correctly. Time will tell. So far there is enough proof that ballots were counted differently for Franken than they were for Coleman. Let the courts decide.

    What are you liberals afraid of? If you are right you have nothing to worry about. Are you afraid of the truth being known?

    You know, Ryan – it’s one thing when a poster tosses names around, like “ol’ Smokescreen” or, from the other side of the aisle, “Porno-O-Rama.”

    It’s another when it’s the title of a thread on the blog of an official of the State Senate Republican Caucus – Michael Brodkorb.

    Or, is it the official position of an official of the State Senate Republican Caucus, Communications Director Michael Brodkorb, that it’s ok for his employees to call those on the other side of the aisle names such as “Porn-O-Rama”?

    Pete..

    With all due respect.. just because this is true does not mean that is true. Just because that is true does not mean that this is true. Just because this is true does not prove that that is true. Just because this is false does not mean that is false. Dang, I wish I has more links! Just because this is true does not mean that is true. Just because that is true does not mean that this is true. Just because this is true does not prove that that is true. Just because this is false does not mean that is false. Dang, I wish I had more proof!

    danbrome, remove the bong from your face and maybe, after a while, you will start making sense. Until then enjoy (and wipe that powder off of your nose).

  11. Pete F Says:
    January 9th, 2009 at 3:10 PM

    danbrome, you really can’t handle being wrong can you. That seems to be a liberal problem, never being able to admit they are wrong.

    I guess maybe that is because they would have to be doing so constantly so it is better to lie than admit error.

  12. Pete F Says:
    January 9th, 2009 at 3:12 PM

    Whats the matter Tommy – can’t deal with the truth. Trying to censor free speech?

    Your damn lucky you are allowed to post here boy so sit back and munch away. Make sure you leave some for danbrome cause I hear he has a case of the munchies coming on.

    Big sale on truck parts for that fine, expensive plow truck of yours….better hurry though, at these prices it’s first come first served!

    ps: Here’s a dream site for you….just think, 50 or 60 parking lots plowed and you can put an actual bumper on that beaut!

    Here is an even bigger sale on something that Tommy, Leroy, and danbrome need to check out ..

    I wasn’t invited? Must be some awful mistake…I was planning since New Year’s day for this event. I even baked brownies…oh well now I’m sad and will eat these brownies all myself!!!!

  16. danbrome Says:

    Just because the vote is “certified” does not mean that Erik Paulsen is an honorable man. Time will tell. So far there is enough proof that Erik has no honor. Maybe a handful of links are in order?

  17. Mike Says:
    January 9th, 2009 at 4:39 PM

    I think the Senator with the 37% approval rating might just have better things to do then fundraise for a sure thing.

  18. chilli Says:
    January 9th, 2009 at 5:09 PM

    danbrome, again with the jibberish?

    Did you ever think about buying a gerbil to keep as a pet?

  19. Pete F Says:
    January 9th, 2009 at 7:51 PM

    danbrome has a gerbil but it is a sexual device. Poor guy just can’t sit still.

    What’s the matter danbrome, are you so far gone that all you can do is sit there slobbering and pissing on yourself? Hey, you can take Gov. Richardson’s place in the cabinet – you obviously have the same qualifications as most of Obama’s other picks!

    “The Question is, is the Congresswoman keeping Franken from her event, or is Franken refusing to help a Democratic member of the Minnesota Congressional delegation?”

    Based on the news coverage, I would have to assume that Franken and McCollum are not on the best of terms, and that’s a reason for them not to attend the same event. But my general view is that is bad politics, that Franken should be invited to these sorts of events, and that he should accept such invitations.

    Pete..

    I have received several emails today, suggesting that post #8 above is the finest I have ever submitted here. I suggest you read it, and re-read it until it sinks in that you truly are foolish in your requirements for proof.

    Read it 3-4 times if necessary. Until you do, I’m afraid you still don’t get it.

    I’m serious.. you need to understand my point.

    Thanks.

    “I have received several emails today, suggesting that post #8 above is the finest I have ever submitted here.”

    Did you receive those messages on channel 313 from your tin-foil hat Mr. danroome?

    Honestly, between obsessing over male pornography and outright lunatic ramblings I wonder if we haven’t attracted a clic from the Democrat home for gay nutcases.
