You Know Them By Their Friends
By Mitch Berg
As I’ve noted in the past, I don’t so much care that Al Franken wrote for Playboy; I’ve been a freelance writer, and I know you don’t look gigs like that in the eye.
Does he cuss during the occasional speech? Yeah, and I doubt I’ll let him babysit my kids, but I’d suspect he’ll be in a different mode should Minnesota lose its collective mind and send him to DC.
And is he an aloof, elitist jerkwad – sort of a younger Garrison Keillor? Sure. But I’m not voting for a buddy – I’m voting for a Senator. Right?
Right.
But what does matter is that Al Franken is buddying up with a group that is under investigation in a third of this nation’s states for rampant, mind–numbingly bizarre, massive, immense, systematic, criminal voter (and other) fraud – including Minnesota:
It was last July that Minnesota ACORN endorsed Al Franken.
Today, the Al Franken for U.S. Senate campaign is proud to announce the endorsement of Minnesota ACORN, a member-driven community organization dedicated to providing housing services to low- and middle-income Minnesotans.
“I’m thrilled and honored to receive this endorsement,” said Al Franken. “And more motivated than ever to work with ACORN and other community organizations in this campaign and in the Senate to fight for economic justice, health care reform, good-paying jobs, and a solution to the housing crisis.”
There will need to be a national accounting for ACORN and its contributions – especially in terms of votes – to Democrats across this country.

Doesn’t he also live with 500 miles of Bill Ayers? Might want to look into that.

Maybe Bush should just call off the election, that way there won’t be any registration fraud or voter fraud.

You think that guy really wants to be president anymore, RickDFL? Angryclown thinks the job didn’t turn out to be as much fun as he thought.

Are BDS sufferers now having deranged fantasies about justifying all their other deranged fantasies?
“that way there won’t be any registration fraud or voter fraud”
A member of the “reality based” community denying reality.

“Angryclown thinks the job didn’t turn out to be as much fun as he thought”
True that. I suppose he could just appoint a successor. One ballot, no fraud.

Regarding Franken, there needs to be an accounting for ACORN and its contributions to him and all left-wing illuminati elitist Democrats. Aren’t people suspect when Franken says, “I’m thrilled and honored to receive this endorsement” (from ACORN). It matters greatly that he’s in league with a group that is under investigation in many states for voter fraud in particular. Let’s throw the bum out before he has a chance to get in!!
