4. I'm glad he gave Obama a hard time about being more active in HC

"A frustrated Sen. Al Franken (D-Minn.) launched a profanity-laced diatribe directed at Obama's top adviser, David Axelrod, following meeting between Obama and Senate Democrats in early February, according to the Washington Post.

"I'm there in the arena with you," Obama told Senate Dems before departing with members of the press, but some lawmakers seemed unsure of his actual commitment.

"Goddamn it, what's the deal here?" Franken heatedly asked Axelrod, the Post reported. "You're talking platitudes, and we have to go home and defend ourselves. We're getting the crap kicked out of us!" "
