1. Cenk is outstanding. He's a treasure!!! Keep analyzing, Cenk . 'Wise us up'!!!!

[Rhiannon12866]

2. K&R. Are you surprised? *sigh*

They've been showing those clips of him impersonating his son's coach for a long time, implying that it's an insane Franken. Then there was that photo with the "diaper." He's an easy target because he played so many outrageous characters. It'll be a wake up call when they realize how dead serious he is about doing this job, but I'll bet that this isn't going to stop them. Lying and character bashing comes pretty naturally to them... :grr:

Sanford/Palin 2012? :eyes:

3. with the music in the background and Franken shaking his fist I think they were trying to make him

look like hitler.

[Rhiannon12866]

5. Gotcha. That would certainly work...

Hitler is a particular favorite of theirs, comparing their enemies to him and forcing any of their enemies who do the same apologize... :grr:

But didn't it dawn on them that, given his religion, Al Franken would be pretty unlikely to actually imitate Hitler? Strom Thurmond is another story... x( :D

[Divine Discontent]

11. exactly, like he's hitler is what I thought too. and GREAT analysis by Cenk eom

[OhioChick]

4. K&R n/t

7. Of course they won't do it, but the DNC should run regular ads

with a monotonous tattoo saying something to the effect of, 'despite the terrible mess left by the Bush administration, the Obama administration is....xyz' or 'despite the mess left by the majority Republican Congress, the newly empowered Democratic Congress is....xyz' and run them over and over and over.

8. This is a great watch. thx knr

[libodem]

9. Bee-u-tee-full!

So glad he countered the attack ad right away. Makes the Repukes look like the dirty players they naturally are.

[winyanstaz]

10. Well that means there is just one thing to do........

We need to NAME this mess...the Great Republican Depression...or perhaps...The GREAT REPUBLICAN FUCK-UP OF THE 21ST CENTURY.
Paste their name all over this mess..because they OWN it.
Come on DU...time to think of a good name for it....:P

[Seldona]

12. K&R

I don't think people are going to fall for it for a minute. The American people tossed republicans out on their asses for a reason. It will be a long time before people forget that.

[ejbr]

13. Democrats run everything?

Not quite. There's still the Supreme Court which was conveniently stacked with Alito and Roberts after two stolen elections. Let's not forget.

[abq e streeter]

18. with the invaluable assistance of key Democrats---gotta LOVE that bi-partisanship

[florida08]

14. k&r

:thumbsup:

15. So the Republican Criminal Scheme Failed, and Franken's In.

Why don't the Repugnants resume their pattern of extramarital affairs and suducing senate pages--leave the adult politics to the Democrats. Another election fraud by the GOP failed--sorry fellas--time to get back to the hookers.

Welcome Al! And Rush Limpfat IS a great, big, ole' fat idiot.

[Wizard777]

16. GOP ad (Short version): America YOU screwed up! Not us. YOU screwed up!

[Libertas1776]

17. He's good enough, He's smart enough

and dog gone it, America like's him. So shove it you Repigs.

[MNBrewer]

19. I'm so pleased with my new Senator.

[The Wizard]

20. Didn't John Cornyn

threaten us with terminal flatulence if Franken was seated?
