Al Franken is finally the newest member of the United States Senate.
This has been an incredibly long road…to see Norm Coleman abandon his pursuit of the seat is a great relief…and I think a wonderful opportunity for Al to put his money where his mouth is. Having the man who wrote and read, “Lies and the Lying Liars who Tell Them” sit on a senate committee or debate legislation on the floor will, without question, be the highlight of this fall’s C-SPAN programming.
The Young Turks did a nice job on the news, “…I’ve love how he (Coleman) concedes that he’s ‘at peace with it’,…ah, you have the imprint of the (MN) Supreme Court’s foot on your ass” ha ha:
For me, this is the end of the whole shebang…the last of the 2008 holdover…the final victory. And now, we can get down to business. Congrats Al, make us proud.
