a chance: their reputations precede them. Franken has shown he's a lunatic shyster who isn't above stealing an election with the help of an expert and O'Bama sat in Wright's church for 20 years sopping up hate and disdain for America.

were there no terkoys, there would be no Tao.

The whiny witches in the Republican party mourn a sad day for America when ACORN holds sway with their latest cheap shot: delivering another lefty loon.

I don't know what is worse. Grammar Gestapo who scour the web and add nothing to the issue or free speech bigots who think that only Americans can talk of torture and rendition and Gitmo? Hitler would be with you all the way. I just saw a PBS weekly Irish program showing how Belfast hooligans stoned Romany's (Gypsy's) out of their houses and then stoned the church where they were given refuge? At great risk, were I in Ireland right now, I would protest ferociously about such a travesty. That because I am a World Citizen and PS, I would have voted against invading and killing all those Iraqi's?

Anyone who supported or still supports Sarah Palin or who defended the results of the Bush vs Gore supreme court decision has absolutely no argument in the matter of a former comedian being legally elected to the U.S. Senate, no matter how tight the vote. As long as people like Inhoff from Oklahoma remain in the senate, one cannot exclude "clowns" from public office.

You used the word "want's" in your post. There is absolutely no condition in the english language that calls for using an apostrophe S after a verb, since it is employed either to indicate ownership (that which belongs to want?) or to form a contraction between a noun and the second- or third-person singular form of the verb "to be" (want is?). While I often see the misuse of apostrophe S to attempt to indicate the plural form of a noun, I have to confess that I've never seen it misused in the original and creative fashion you demonstrated in your post. And though I have no way of knowing if you are big and fat, you have indeed shown yourself to be an idiot. U think u gots game? Bring it on, beeyotch! Maybe you shouldn't have quit drinking, then you'd have an excuse. What a douche.>>>>>>

Dude. "English" should be capitalized.

is to deliver the payload without detection! Thus, "I Love Lucy" constantly drives home the point that the star is a "crazy redhead" always trying to overcompensate and exceed her abilities but unschooled observers (like children) know better. They immediately detect that she is the only sane member of the household and (along with her accomplice Ethel Mertz) the sharpest observer and actor in the absurd scenarios. Thus, her husband and mentor is frequently referred to by the same children as "Ricky Retardo" for his cluelessness and ineffectiveness. With Rush, the dirty little secret is that he is exactly what he daily whines about in others: a big crybaby who is never satisfied and feels the world has conspired against him: in other words, a typical angry white industrial male lost in the postindustrial world where masculinity no longer rules the roost and people the age of his children (if he has any) drift in and out of relationships with both sexes with no problem. What's an industrial guy to do except pound the table and scream that the communists have taken over the country!

There's a problem with getting power the Newt Gingrich way, and exercising it by slandering your opponents. When you lose power, you have a power that is habituated to lying, so much so that they can't even recognize the truth.

Franken called out Limbaugh and O'Reilly in a very funny way. These two epic bullies and liars don't like being called on it, so they create this foolish image of the fanatical enemy, Franken, and start the campaign by trashing him, which drive's Coleman's negatives way up. Do they charge him with substantive things? No. They say the vote was "stolen," when this recount has been more painstaking than any I've ever seen. What's the "fraud"? Well, I guess Acorn might have signed up some poor people. So they resort to the counter-factual trashing of Acorn. They say that "other issues" are involved, by repeating the "double-counting" canard, which was proven false, and they beg for more absentees to be looked at again, forgetting that when Coleman did that, he lost votes every time. The courts couldn't "Count more of them" when examples he brought up in court were fraudulently signed. "Okay, his girlfriend forged his signature, but that's really the way he wanted to vote!" And they ridiculed our chads and "intent of the voter."

If you look at life in the radically black-and-white view, you never can gain a realistic idea of your opponent, and you lose more and more. Al Franken a "radical"? Yeah, like Obama was "a friend of radicals," right? More and more people see the GOP for the idiots they are, big and fat or not.

When you live by the lie, you have nothing but lies to defend yourself with.

I hope we're now at the beginning of the Al Franken Decade, because I will love to see right-wing heads explode again when he takes his moderately left position on many issues, and votes with the center on others.

Wow.

I'm glad I don't listen to those right-wing pundits. Their reactions to Franken's election are, at the very best, premature. They should wait until he's been in the Senate for a while before drawing conclusions.

As a sidenote, that Sarah Palin sure is cute.

Here's my issue with your post Jax, I can yell like heck about my brother Americans and we will fight like cats and dogs, but you go after my brother American and you go after me.

David Brooks wrote "for Americans who most of the time, foreign relations are kind of boring'

Pre-911, 5% of Americans owned a passport; now- due to requirements for Bahamas and Mexico beach vacations - 10% of Americans own a passport. I wonder- how many members of congress possess a passport.

Too many Americans – including many of the 535 members of congress cannot even read a map of their own country.

On September 12, 2001 – Of the congress in 2001- how many of the 535 members understood international law? How many owned a passport?

The world warned us not to invade Iraq- What did America do?

We ignored the world, renamed French Fries and invaded Iraq.
