Franken blowing up on Hardball

[TwoHandedLayup]

I agree with him, but he is coming across as bullheaded right now. He needs to calm down a tad and use facts not screams.

[Mojambo]

1. That's not how cable news is played.

It's about time the left learned that.

[Freedom_from_Chains]

5. You can say that again

I am very hopeful that after Keith Olbermann's speech last night the left will finally learn how to get into the game. Before our country is completely gone.

[eleny]

2. Bullshit - Al is doing very well with facts and ire

[SammyWinstonJack]

3. Calm down and get over it?

:eyes: No Mr. Nice Guy!

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

4. Calm down? Absolutely not.

It's about time some Dem spokespeople started publicly kicking ass. And Tony Blankey's fat ass is a real good place to start.

[Lex]

6. Sitting down and being calm has gotten us exactly no-where.

Time to stand up and give 'em hell.

This country is worth fighting for--loudly and vociferously.

There will have to be some ugliness before the neo-cons get their foot off the country's neck.

[SeattleGirl]

7. No way should he calm down.

How much longer are we supposed to sit down and be good little children while the freakin' Repukes kick our asses all over the place, and lie about us, and demean us, and do everything they can to shut us up? I say good for Al for blowing up and throwing the words of that pompous ass right back at him. I'm sick of them, and we have a right to be angry. We have a right to blow up. We have a right to say, "ENOUGH!!" I for one am glad Al is doing that.

[Webster Green]

8. He is using facts...

And doing it nicely, thank you.

[gratuitous]

9. Oh, please calm down Al

After all, we're just talking about thousands of people dead and billions of dollars squandered. Jeez, you act like it's someone you know or like you didn't get a fat tax cut. Democrats are so shrill!

Thank you concern trolls everywhere. It's gotten to the point where I can practically type it by rote.

[Webster Green]

14. "concern trolls"...

Haw!:rofl:

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

15. These guys just aren't TRYING very hard anymore these days. No creativity!

:rofl:

[July]

16. You turn a phrase like no other, gratuitous.

Love your "concern trolls"!!

[tinfoilinfor2005]

10. Big Dawg, Keith, Franken!

it's about time, it's about time, it's about time.......

:bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

:applause: :applause: :applause:

If we ALL start speaking up loudly and forcefully, it will become harder and harder for them to single any one of us out. And pretty soon, we will actually start to look like the formidable opponent that we want to be.

[librechik]

11. yes, Al, be nice to that baby-flesh eating vampire who would happily throw

our democracy under the bus for the Reverend Moon

:sarcasm:

[immoderate]

12. You don't get patronizing with Al!

Tony the Hutt said something like, "If you had read my columns..." Red flag, baby.

Al was perfectly appropriate. And he hit his bullshit with facts!

--IMM

[Mountainman]

13. Join the "we shouldn't do that" crowd my friend!

Oh no, the repukes might attack us if we aren't playing pretty please.

[greenbriar]

17. so tell us what he is saying

and not how he is saying?
