Franken v. Coulter - No Mas

[filkertom]

I'm not the biggest fan of Al Franken's comedy -- while he's very talented, no question, I think he's more witty and clever than funny about half the time, and his "I think a lot of myself" shtick wears thin -- but I absolutely love his politics, and his method for dealing with right-wing nutcases, i.e., smack them with the truth again and again and again.

Al recently had a debate with Ann Coulter. The description of her Anntics is just beyond belief. But also get a look at Al's opening statement.

Wow. Just wow. Thanks for pointing me at this.

My wet dream is the thought of MaryScott O'Connor taking on Coulter. Preferably in a mudpit.

I read that as "Al recently had a date with Ann Coulter." My brain was severely hurting...

A thing of beauty is a joy forever. :-)

Thanks for the link, I've forwarded it to several friends. Agree with you on not being a fan of Franken's humor but rather his activities. I'm glad Air America went for his style of counter-revolution instead of matching the GOP's technique.

Me, I like Franken and make an effort to listen to his show when I can. Coulter, on the other hand, is the only female(?--she does have that creepy adam's-apple thing going) against whom I feel no compunction in applying the "c" word, generally preceded by "evil" and/or "ignorant". I can't believe she hasn't been sued out of existence yet.

Thanks for posting this Tom! This was excellent.

I nearly couldn't finish it, and I agree with Franken. Sigh.

From where, I wonder, does Ann Coulter get her drugs? And what color is the sky there?
