Good God, Al Franken's a far-left feather-weight intellectual. Second only to Janine Garafalo.
Al Franken is a fricking joke!!!
Stick to something you know, like software.
Gotta agree with the crowd on this one.
Franken does come across as a bit of a meatball.
I wouldn't say Jeremy knows software - he thinks MySQL is great ;P.
First, let me get some preliminary stuff out of the way....
Fuck the croud! Al Franken really isn't all that liberal -- just surprisingly entertaining for someone with a reasonable perspective. And, the reason Rush Limbaugh claims to "tie half of his brain behind his back" is because it doesn't seem to make much of a difference. The far right and its soft-minded following is an absurdity and would be hillarious if it weren't so sad (and, at times, frightening).
Second, you don't happen to know where his interview/speech is archived, do you? I heard it, but I promised to do my best to get a copy for a friend.
Regards.
When Al Franken admitted to lying to get some dirt on political appointees, and using Harvard resources to do it, he lost what little credibility he had left. He proved himself to be a liar, which is ironic, considering the title of his recent book. He's a narrow-minded fool.
