Re: Al Franken 'SHOW' - What if they ain't 'MAYBES"? then what?
Edited on Tue Jan-04-05 02:17 PM by bpilgrim


anyone else listening to AL relate a story from his experience touring a prison in Iraq - not Abu Ghraib - and where some CW star traveling with him during the USO tour tells the guards he 'couldn't do their job, he'd kill'em' and then Al related how the CO said, "these are 'MAYBES'"...

i guess to remind us that they haven't been found guilty of resisting the occupation, yet... but what if they weren't 'MAYBEs' and they were deemed to be DEFINATELYS... then what? execute them? lock'em up, FOREVER :shrug:

(on edit: it certainly is facisintating listening to these stories, thanks Al for all the amazing stuff you do! :toast: )

peace

2. Why should we be killing the "Definitely's"?
They are fighting against an illegal occupation. End of story.

5. yeah, i had to stop what i was doing
it can be hard to tell with him when he's joking and doing somthing seriously, especially the banter between the two host... it's hard to tell when shes being serious sometimes, especially when she laughs at moments that seem weird



maybe it was a skit? :shrug:

peace
