The Puff Continues

The Pioneer Press' Hot Dish blog serves up...

...well, cold, puffy softballs re Al Franken:

Lately, Air America Radio has had some ups and downs -- things are going fine in Cincinnati [Actually, they're a slightly better grade of crappy than elsewhere - Ed.], but not so great in Washington D.C. [Just stay it, dude; Air America is *gone* in DC - Ed.] At least one thing remains constant -- Air America personality Al Franken's outspokenness. The host of "The Al Franken Show" is known for his biting humor that finds its way into his many talents -- host, political commentator, writer, comedian -- and on Tuesday, he's voicing his opinions on the small screen. Franken, who was raised in St. Louis Park, will promote his new book, "The Truth (with Jokes)," with appearances on NBC's "Today" show and CNN's "American Morning" on Tuesday morning followed by a stop by Comedy Central's "The Daily Show With Jon Stewart" Tuesday night. His book tour will eventually hit the Twin Cities -- he's scheduled to sign copies on Dec. 4 at the Edina Barnes & Noble in the Galleria.
Suppose he'll be answering questions about Gloria Wise?

Hmmm...this could be an acid test for Jon Stewart's comedy cojones. Will he have the courage to give Franken the cold fish stare he deserves (at best)?

Assuming (I hasten to add) that Franken is the train-wreck on TDS that he's proven to be everywhere else. If Stewart knows what's good for him, he'll try to provoke Franken into a meltdown.

Did I say provoke? Yeah, you know: ask questions, raise objections, that kind of thing. Unhinges the guy.

Check out his pathetic video sales pitch at Amazon.com (at Michelle Malkin's site):

If he gets elected Senator, there'lll have to be a special budget allowance for replacing chairs in the chamber.

I've managed to save up roughly $22681 in my bank account, but I'm not sure if I should buy a house or not. Do you think the market is stable or do you think that home prices will decrease by a lot?
