Superhero Al Franken Uses Literacy To Prove Homophobes Are Idiots

Michele Bachmann: Al Franken Stole Election, Passed Obamacare Illegally
The banshee shrieks: “That’s why an election was stolen in Minnesota, and yes, I will tell you, it was stolen.

Mitch McConnell Doesn’t Find Al Franken’s Senate Comedy Sketch Very Funny

Remember when the Obama Administration was going to undo all the attacks on civil liberties that were perpetrated under the Bush Administration?

AL FRANKEN WANTS TO STOP THE TEEVEE: “I came to Washington to stand up to the lopsided influence of special interests on behalf of middle class Minnesota families, and opposing this merger is an opportunity to do just that.
