And the beat goes on~~~~~~~~~

Democrats remain undefeated in competition with daytime Soaps for suspense, melodrama, and dark turns of plot. But, Franken the entertainer is now so much like OJ and Michael Richards: funny no more. Still, this is brilliant amusement, if only the soul of our nation and so many precious lives were not at stake.

The election of Franken should put the leadership of the Republican Party on notice of how disappointed the rank and file have become with them at the helm. As a Republican of over 30 years, I have seen this President and his supporters turn against one after another all too many party principles, and lie through their teeth while in so doing. When George Bush boards that Marine helicopter on 20 January 2009 and gives his final farewell, it will be a day of rejoicing. For the first time in my life, my only hope will turn to the Democrats to fix at least some of the mess he has left us with.

Franken....stein. What a monstrosity of a show the Dems can put on? They are successful at buying, selling and steeling elective positions. Reid acts outraged? Is this for-real TV drama? But it is the Dems and they are proving that they can be sccessful---coackroaches are usually successful too---until you turn on the light!

With Franken as part of the Democrat's new act, they have the clown. Now all they need is 3 jugglers.

Somebody explain to me how they counted/recounted more than 3000 more votes than Minnesota has registered voters. I guess the old ACORN adages of “vote early, vote often”, and “you’re never too dead to vote twice” apply. What a scam I suppose we will need UN observers in 2012 to insure a fair election. Even Chavez is laughing. By the way, I bet if BO ever releases his donor list half the Communist leaders in the world are on it. The jokes on us.

Hey Ziggy, got any proof to back up your 3000 vote claim? I'm waiting: ;)
