With All Due Respect, That's Really Stupid

When It Comes to Women....

Perhaps Minnesota can put the likes of Muslim Senator Keith Ellison (D-MN), Whacko Governor Jessie Ventura (D-MN), the Muslim/Airport fiasco, toe tapping Larry Craig's (R-ID) airport fiasco, and the suspected misogynist Al Franken's (D-MN) candidacy for the senate behind it. Let's hope so. For now we'll tackle just one of them, STUP Al.

Al Franken, it is reported, is losing favor rapidly with his democratic stalwarts in Minnesota. Apparently his past is catching up to him and a few of his comments are coming home to roost (see here). Planned Parenthood director, Connie Perpich, said Planned Parenthood may find it difficult to support Franken because some of his comedic sexual depictions and comments were "beyond the boundaries" for a candidate to do or say.

Franken responded with, "What the f^%%* do you mean my %@$& comments are "beyond the boundaries," you no-good %^@@#8? I'll kick the livin' *&(#$@ out of you. And just because you are a #@*&%% don't think I won't, you &^&&*$#%@~." Wow………..Okay, so we made his response up but, we think that might have been his reaction given he's such a dufus.

Seriously, Franken countered Ms. Perpich with, "I respect women, in both my personal and professional life. And I will work incredibly hard to represent them in the Senate -- something [incumbent U.S. Sen.] Norm Coleman (R-MN) hasn't been doing for the last six years." Ahhhh, ain't that sweet? He's going to "work incredibly hard to represent" the women of Minnesota.

You know, our mother tempers any negative comments she makes about someone by prefacing the remark with, "God love him/her….! For example, Mom might say, "God love her, she is so homely." Let's try some of mom's temperance on Al Franken. "God love him, he's such a moron." Hey! It works. We don't feel bad at all. Thanks, mom.
