Have him give me a call re: getting stuff banned.
Actually, I have met with Al a couple of times. Once at an energy forum in Mounds View and again at a teacher’s convention in Saint Paul. Seems like a nice enough fellow.

He is a nice guy. We live a block away from him. His wife is incredibly gracious. Here’s a picture of him playing with a dog.

I have some Franken photos, too, but don’t know how to post in comment. Boo!

That one issue is enough for me to very seriously consider voting for him.

This is why democrat politicians have such an easier time of it. They know that their constituents have been educated in the government schools.
The Petition section of the first amendment, also commonly referred to as the Petition Clause, states that “People have the right to appeal to government in favor of or against policies that affect them or in which they feel strongly. This freedom includes the right to gather signatures in support of a cause and to lobby legislative bodies for or against legislation.
Good luck with that “new law,” Al.

Certainly explains why we’ve had two Democratic Presidents since 1968, and a Republican controlled congress in the 90s.

Maz, there’s no such thing as a democrat politician.

Don’t I wish.

“They know that their constituents have been educated in the government schools.”
Wow, so I should be wishing I’d been indoctrinated at your school? I’ll pass.
7:35 am
If parents can’t successfully indoctrinate their kids, it’s not the school’s fault.

Yeah, it’s going to be pretty hard to permanently take away someone’s First Amendment rights.

Was that a photo of a baboon with a dog?

what kevin said. I haven’t RTFA, but i saw a commercial, and on its surface it’s just such an embarrasingly naive and undercooked idea on Franken’s part that it’s embarassing. plus, if you were to do that, you’d no longer get the best and the brightest running for congress.

“you’d no longer get the best and the brightest running for congress“
Agree completely! Cream of the crop I say.
