According to the Pioneer Press, Norm Coleman Sr. was cited for lewd and disorderly conduct Tuesday after police officers reported finding him engaged in a sex act with a 38-year-old woman in a car parked near Red’s Savoy Pizza on East Seventh Street in St. Paul. Mr. Coleman Sr. is the 81-year-old father of Minnesota’s junior senator, noted family man Norm Coleman. Were they good friends, or will we get to see their mugshots here?

As someone who used to live on the Rocking East Side, I would like to note that nothing about Red’s Savoy ever made me want to consummate a relationship in the parking lot. But I’m no frisky octogenarian.
9:47 pm
Oh crap. I just finished submitting a similar post. all my link to his scantily clad wife will just go to waste.
Yeah, I use to work right near the Savoy. The pizza is orgasmic, but not in a literal sense.
Poor Norm just can’t get a break.
9:51 pm
I smell a cover-up. I bet he was really with Mike Hatch.
9:52 pm
LOL. Yeah, with the right light Hatch could pass for 38.

Is Norm Sr. mentally all there? Norm’s comments made it seem like there was a deeper problem.
10:13 pm
I just can’t imagine an 81-year-old with the flexibility to do it in a car. I’m 31, and I don’t think I can get in those positions anymore. Of course, I’m married, so I really have no way to find out. Unless I go to Savoy’s. Apparently.

Sounds like something for the I-Team, Jason.
11:12 pm
I want to know why all of the male prostitutes in St. Paul, regardless of race, age or weight, are all 5′10″…now that’s something for the I-Team to investigate!
11:13 pm
The Jackal doen’t fall far from the Perv…

Apparently this happened early in the evening, and there was enough light for people to readily see what was going on. This might lead some to think Coleman the elder has ‘issues’ with courtesy, judgement, or maybe some kind of a fetish. I’m inclined to think he’s just not allowed to drive after dark.

So this is where Norm Jr. gets his famous “family values” from, eh?
Question: Where’s Mrs. Norm Coleman? Junior OR Senior? (And I don’t mean the blondes that a neighbor lady claims are constantly traipsing into Norm Jr.’s abode.)
11:44 pm
Headline:
“Norm Coleman, Senior: Also a ‘Bush’ Yes-Man.”
11:47 pm
or perhaps:
“Colemans Don’t Fall Far from the Bush”
12:00 am
A Coleman in hand is worth two in the Bush?

I think Mrs. Norm Coleman Jr. — yes, this is her — was enjoying a cocktail:
1:14 am
I’m just glad this didn’t happen up the street by Carbone’s. The punsters would’ve been out of control.
8:28 am
I think all the 5′ 10′ people were johns…
9:18 am
Coleman Sr. in training for the Hatch sisters
9:26 am
If you don’t know why male prostitutes are 5′10″ I ain’t gonna tell you. (hint: the critical dimension is height while kneeling)
And BTW, Senator Coleman’s Dad is a Democrat.
SB (and more power to him!)
9:39 am
Senator Coleman’s dad will probably be hearing from Bob Dole’s old employer regarding an endorsement deal.
11:04 am
Wait a minute! I’M 5′10″!!
11:29 am
Defination of a Neo-Con Republican: stupid, arrogant, hypocrictical, abusive, liar, coward, flip-flopper, hick, lazy, control freak, religious wackjob, anti-American, anti-democratic government, narrow-minded, immoral, etc.
You could label all these words next to Norm and the rest of these GOP morons, who think that they should be above the law.
What a disgrace!
11:33 am
I saw in the Strib story that Sr. fought in WWII at the Battle of the Bulge.
I guess the battle’s not over for him.
HEEEEYOOOO!
2:14 pm
6:30 PM and still going at it when the cops finally showed up hours later!
2:36 pm
Kepp in mind that the building next to Red’s features a huge mural that states “Big Wood”.
4:25 pm
the 38 yr old is a total freak! i cant believe what they did!
5:10 pm
Why the hell is Coleman Sr even in Minnesota? His kid talks like Diamond Joe Quimby. That’s, ah, nawt exactly a, ah, an East Side St. Pawul accent.
5:37 pm
funny story, but does it really have ANYTHING to do with norm jr.?
I seem to remember when Bill got dome in the west wing, all we heard was how your private life didn’t influence your public life. unless it’s your 81 year old dad, i guess.
(this is the part of the post where I encourage random liberal flamers to self-censor so they don’t look stupid. Conclusion: maybe they are stupid)
5:41 pm
“flamers” was not a gay bash. don’t even go there.
5:52 pm
someone should flyer his neighborhood and alert them to the presence of a ‘dangerous sex criminal’. I’m assuming if convicted he will be required to register, which would be ironic considering his son probably voted for the new sex offender law which just passed today. How terribly inconvenient!
5:57 pm
Sex offender flyers will only attract more hookers.
8:05 pm
That photo of Norm’s (ex?)-wife posted above is Alexis McKinnis’ idealized vision of wifedom.
3:47 pm
This has EVERYTHING to do with Norm Jr.
In fact I think Norm Sr.’s despair over having such a raging carpetbagging souless asshole for a son no doubt contributed to his desire to bring a shit storm of embarrssment upon him.
Unfortunately the CONVERVATIVE Media chose to bury this story.
If this were Dayton’s father…or Hatch’s…it would be front page news and leading very newscast.
Meanwhile Norm Jr. bangs escorts nitely while his “wife” chases fame in LA.
Truth be told, Coleman is a Nazi bastard and because he’s so vile and corrupt – likely abetting the assasination of Wellstone – people are afraid to lay a finger on him.
And don’t give that bullshit that Coleman is a “Jew”.
He’s a Jew alright…a Jew for Hitler!
4:21 pm
^ Now THAT would be a headline!
4:28 pm
It’s Official!
Raindog has gone off the deep end…it must be the heat and the twins continuing winning streak.
I don’t think slander/libel is really a very nice thing. I would expect that comment to be redacted.
4:33 pm
Everyone’s a Jew for Hitler as far as Raindog is concerned. Except, ironically, for these guys.
4:52 pm
Let’s go Twinkies!
clap clap clapclapclap!
5:01 pm
I hope I have that kind of energy and motivation when I’m 81.
Heck, I hope I can get a woman to get into my car when I’m 81.
(I’m always amazed when people who would normally accept and congratulate any imaginable sexual conduct can pile on when it involves the “wrong” people. Wellstone could have schtupped sheep, and the response would probably be that cross-species relationships aren’t actually threatening to existing inter-species relationships, and his wife is okay with this so it’s none of our business, and why are we worried about what the sheep does anyway, mind your own damn business, you intrusive judgmental neo-con Cheney-licking gawd-squadder!)
5:17 pm
Replace Wellsone with Reagan and see how that feels.
5:17 pm
That’s a strawman. It’s just an odd, funny story — and a bit ironic because of the rumors that have always followed Norm Jr. Trying to connect one public figure to another is just silly.
For example, can you imagine if the MN press scrutinized Norm Coleman Jr’s marriage the same way the NY Times has been examining Hillary Clinton’s? I can’t. Not because there isn’t some digging to be done. I think the MN media — and to a large extent, the voters — tend to look at these issues as off limits.

Norm Coleman sr., for those who don’t know him, is an outstanding man who was great to all the kids in the neighborhood that knew him. He fought for the country in WW2 and swooped into Normandy in the first wave as a commando battling courageously those Nazis who some -obviouly more courageous- jerks cite so easily above. He raised 8 kids and worked hard. Now that he got a bit careless, having some mindless fun at the age of 81 that others a

attack, it’s being used to discredit more than one sterling person. Nobody condones it, right, even at the advanced age of 81. What does this have to do with politics?
10:14 pm
I honestly think it’s great – an old guy gettin’ some like that with a younger woman (an 81 year old should be so lucky). Why are people so fucking uptight? I passionately hate Norm, Jr., but this has nothing to do with him and anyone who would attempt to make political hay out it is a total loser. His old man can do what he wants and accept the consequences. And what’s with the cops? Why didn’t they just order ‘em to leave? It’s absurd to waste public resources on a “crime” (appearently victimless) such as this.
