| Yes, it's true: Senator Al Franken | |
| 2009-04-14 | |
Monday's ruling isn't expected to be the final word because Coleman previously announced plans to appeal to the state Supreme Court. He has 10 days to do so. That appeal could mean weeks more delay in seating Minnesota's second senator. After a statewide recount and seven-week trial, Franken stands 312 votes ahead. Franken gained more votes from the election challenge than Coleman, the candidate who brought it. The state law Coleman sued under merely required three judges to determine who got the most votes and is therefore entitled to an election certificate. That critical certificate is on hold pending appeal. | |

| #9 #5 "The Senate is a Comedy? Not, judging by any works of Al Franken." Actually, that's pretty funny #1 "Appears feckless, dilusional, leftest voters once again reap the harvest they deserve.' Yeah, they get what the deserve but I have to pay for it. |

| #7 The thing that is scary is that we still have a 50/50 country after 911, Iraq, Somali pirates, Norks, Iran nukes, a tanked economy, a corrupt congress, a marxist-leninist radical as POTUS, a failed education system, etc. I just have a hard time believing that half the voting population are that naive, historically inept and willing to turn this country over to former comedians, foot-in-mouth plagerists and ex community organizers. What the hell are we thinking? |

| #6 In classical terms it needs a happy ending to be a comedy. This will be a tragedy, sooner or later. |

| #2 And the votes will be counted, and counted and counted again, until the correct and adequate number has been reached. |
