Al Franken Overstays Welcome At Talk Fest | |
2005-06-13 | |
AIR AMERICA's Al Franken became "The Guest Who Wouldn't Leave" after receiving an award at a talk-radio convention in New York over the weekend. NY POST's John Mainelli reports Monday: The liberal talk-show host was finally forced off the stage -- amidst shouts from supporters and detractors -- after an acceptance speech became a nearly half-hour rant against Bill O'Reilly and the Iraq war. "Al, hurry up," said Michael Harrison, publisher of TALKERS mag, the convention sponsor. | |

#8 Anyone seen the rating for Err Amerika lately? I know they must be piss-poor or CNN would do a live simulcast to celebrate any good ratings. You would think that the guy does enought ranting/raving during his show and could turn it off in this setting. |

#6 I saw a car the other day plastered with moonbat bumper stickers. Two stood out as a wonderfully unintentional irony: "Somewhere a village is looking for its idiot" next to one promoting alfranken.com. I literally laughed out loud. |

#5 I know a couple of guys who stayed at the Walter Reed center and would have hobbled off their beds, flown to New York to beat this idiot to death with their crutches. For the soldiers my ass. Cheap political swipe is what it is from this asswipe. |

#4 Al Franken and all of his genetic lineage should not be allowed to ever have children. Talk about gene pool pollution!! Big Al is the poster child of the angry spoiled brat frat boy left that thinks that name calling and pie fights is what made America great. Have you ever seen him go off on some one who wants to discuss facts and figures instead of opinion? Have you ever seen him show any respect for the opinions of anyone but himself? For that matter when was the last time you ever saw a liberal with any respect for dissenting opinions against their world view. If Al Franken was President it would be the Soviet Union all over again. We would have the thought police and the Black Marias cruising the streets at night. Heaven forbid that anyone would want to go to church either. Gasp!! a person with a faith based moral ethical base. Remember that Hitler, Mussolini, Pol Pot and Joseph Stalin were SOCIALISTS. |

#3 He's definitely overstayed his 15 minutes by now, at any rate. |

#2 The words "Al Franken overstays welcome at . . ." could start nearly every sentence about Franken. "Al Franken overstays welcome at Arby's free fixin's bar." "Al Franken overstays welcome at marital bed, claims Mrs. Franken." "Al Franken overstays welcome at public eye." "Al Franken overstays welcome at Earth, returns to home planet fatter, still not funny." |
