Franken Love
You probably saw this all over Facebook et al. when it happened last month, but since love of Al Franken has been a big theme of this blog, I don’t hesitate to give it its late time in the spotlight here. What you’ve got is Al Franken calling out John Thune’s lies on the floor of the Senate. I find the “you’re not entitled to your own facts” line staid and naive, but I do love Franken’s witty ferocity. During a stretch where I’ve felt so disappointed in our system and in many individual Democrats, it’s nice to have some optimism left that Franken really will be a strong progressive voice for Minnesotans in the Senate.
