Al Franken sworn in - Finally
This swearing-in has been too long delayed by the alleged corrupt former senator from Minnesota, some guy by name of Coleman. Al Franken is a liberal, a thinker, an extremely intelligent man who will be a wonderful addition to this august body. He's also funny.
Many other senators are funny, too. But in their case, as we used to say when we were kids, they are funny as in strange!
As you watch this video clip, you might ask yourself why there are so many empty seats. The Republicans, also known as the disloyal opposition, seem to be absent. But aren't they the ones, with tears running down their chalky cheeks, who have been wailing about the need for "bipartisanship"?
Perhaps bipartisanship does not include the swearing in of a Democratic senator. Of course it doesn't. Silly me! Bipartisanship, in Republican terms, means the Democrats kiss the Republicans' collective asses and ask the Republicans how they can assist the Republicans in pushing the Republican legislative agenda through Congress!
Anything less is, well, socialistic!

Those Republicans look like they're about to lose their lunch. LMAO God I loved seeing Al Franken sworn in and I loved seeing the Republicans having to cut him a check for $97,000 to pay for legal fees since they lost. Nice blog!
Franken is a Harvard grad, an author and a comedian. Reagan was an actor, Dubya Bush was???
Many politicians have done many things to earn a living before running for office. I expect Franken to be a thoughtful, intelligent Senator. We have too many comic figures in politics now. Sarah Palin is a good example
