Al Franken to Run

I know when you read that you assumed it meant he would run from someone he ticked off but he is going to run for a Senate seat in Minnesota. Franken will quit his radio show on Valentine’s Day and start working on his campaign. What? Oh, for those of you who did not know, Franken has a show on Err Amerika, a defunct Liberal radio station that is bankrupt and has no listeners.

Franken, who has a hot temper and likes to break bad with people, has tried many things that he was not particularly good at. He was a writer on Saturday Night Live and sometimes appeared in the skits. He is not very funny and he is supposed to be a comedian. He left comedy and wrote a few books that basically insulted people and called them liars. If that is successful writing there are a lot of moonbats at the Daily Kos who have a potential future (once they remove their tin hats). Then Franken went into radio on Err Amerika and he has failed at that. There are more people watching Andy Griffith reruns than listen to his show. Hell, there are probably more people who think Jerry Garcia is still alive than listen to his show. In any event, he is turning to politics.

He had better hope he reaches more people than his radio show did or he might be listed as “others” on the election night ticker. Franken is not what this country needs in Congress but I guess he figured he sucks at everything else so he might as well try to get into the loser club. He likes to tell folks he will be the only New York Jew in the race who grew up in Minnesota. I think he got that slightly wrong. He will be the only New York Jewish Putz…

    It is significant that he wants to run in a state with tons of Somali Muslims who will recognize him as a terrorist supporter. That he is a Jew will not disqualify him since Muslims love useful idiots whatever their race.

    Global warming idiocy propped by the UN…

    Nobody said they were all that bright, either. Look at Kofi’s denials about the oil for food program. Why we are looking to the UN to save us is beyond me. Why we are members is even further beyond me, and why the HQ is in the US is astonishin…
