readers who've been with me from the start know that i can laugh with al franken at times and even have a fantasy where i treat him like the little cupcake he seems to think it's okay to treat women like. readers from the start also know i have serious problems with al franken's views when they seem to be republican lite.
there are times when i've seriously thought some 1 should ask al, 'did you vote for ronald reagan in 1980? how about 1984?'
tamara, a common ills community member, e-mails me about how al is dlc and that is something i've suspected as well. but as i read through her e-mail, she's saying that janeane garofalo said it on air at air america last week.
so i e-mail c.i. and say, 'what's the deal? did janeane say this?'
c.i. responds janeane said that on thursday while she and sam seder were interviewing hendrick hertzberg on thursday and janeane says it then.
well it's not that surprising, is it?
now we get why he thinks it's 'cute' to continue to tear apart arafat. now we get why he embarrasses himself by spit cleaning the jock strap of any g.i. that comes on the show as he turns into a nervous, horny virgin saying 'thank you for your service! thank you for your service!'
as many have noted, al never says that to any 1 else. librarains, teachers, peace activists, many people give service. but in a dlc brain, you do whatever's easiest. you do whatever isn't controversial.
and that's al franken.
i am officially releasing my sexual fantasy of treating al franken like a cupcake.
and i'll be bringing the big guns out after the fat fuck in the future.
this is why weeping boy does those ads hawking the new republic. he's the poster boy for the new republic. don't mistake him for a brave voice. he narrows the debate and he destroys the progressive movement.
