The Minnesota Supreme Court ruled today that Democrat Al Franken won the U.S. Senate election and said he was entitled to an election certificate that would lead to him being seated in the Senate. "Affirmed," wrote the Supreme Court, unanimously rejecting Republican Norm Coleman's claims that inconsistent practices by local elections officials and wrong decisions by a lower court had denied him victory.

Is anyone else having trouble posting ?
Droped posts, word processor is so slow it won't keep up with your typing. Several minute lag time.
Word processor freezes up.
Have to leave site and come back in to post more than one post.
Very frustrating web site. Non existent support. No info about moderators that are deciding who is posted or not posted.
No link to them, etc.
Anyone ??

I can't help but think that we deserve this. We allowed this to happen and deserve the pain this will cause. We always say it is good to get more people to vote but does that really help. People are stupid and the more the vote the worse the results will be. I guess I will just watch us circle the drain.

"People are stupid", and yet you double-posted. Priceless.

Has anyone seen the movie "Idiocracy"? With Franken going to the senate I can't help but think that our country is headed in the same direction. God help us all.
Mike
If you saw the film "Idiocracy" and actually understood it, you should hope the Republican Party discontinues bashing intellectualism and technical debate. People actually are interested in what their elected officials are doing besides just winning elections.

Knee jerk reaction to the economy at the time now we all have to live with it, There were discrepancies with the election that did not all come out. I smell an acorn

This is another nail in the Liberal coffin. Every serious thinking person in this country knows Franken is the laughing stock of the Democratic Party.
Jalr
How can Franken's election be a nail in the liberal coffin when it all but ensures a Democratic supermajority in the Senate? Maybe we should wait until Franken is seated before dismissing him as a clown. BTW, if you're a fan of.. eh.. political humor, I suggest perusing Governor Sanford's e-mail messages to his Argentine lover.
mersey
First off, I'm not a Republican. I don't live in South Carolina and don't care about Governor Sanford. That's up to the people in that state. Second, all you need to do is search for Franken's previous words of wisdom and you'll see he makes Joe Biden look like Albert Einstein.
joey
Why wait for him to be seated, just because his face isn't painted does not mean he's not a clown. Besides, he forgot to change his clown shoes. Are you kiding, this guy is an idiot and just like the rest of the politicians in DC.

Yeah and the party of tyranny gets bigger and bigger, maybe you should read the constitution and educate yourself about liberty and tyranny. Or maybe you like being told what to do every day of your life. Wake-up

I think Minnesota's problem is that there summers are to short and it doesn't give there brains time to thaw
Jalr
There summers? There brains?? Or is it they're brains??? Perhaps even their brains.. yes, someone's brain certainly does need time to thaw.

This just puts that much more pressure on my senator here in Alaska.
Mark Begich [D}. I'll keep reminding him he only won because Ted Stevens
was wrongly convicted. Since been overturned.

He's not even a funny comedian but, should fit right in with the Democrats as a another joke.

Franken carries on in the great American tradition of entertainers choosing public service, like Ronald Reagan and Governor Arnold. Congrats Senator Al!
RichInCT
Reagan was in politics longer than he was an actor.
Arnold is a RINO and CA is bankrupt.
Putting Franken in the Senate is about as wise as making Jane Fonda Secretary of Defense
IfIwerearichman
Franken actually entertained somebody in his past life? They must have had a few too many at the bar.

Why not ? He will fit right in with the rest of the clowns in D.C.

My wife used to wait on him when he was a drunk at the Corner Bar in Sag Harbor

who said he quit drinking he's a senator now, what a joke what do the people in minn. drink up there anyway, to vote that idiot in office, they will regret that one.
Annti
I didn't vote for him. I have a very hard time looking at him and taking him seriously. As for his drinking, he will fit right in with most, if not all, the others (Dems & Reps).

How can this headline be construed as anything but blatantly biased?! I wouldn't have objected to it if it had been posted on a conservative blog but I am alarmed to find it on the fiercely fair and balanced (if not left-leaning) Foxnation.
