Applesauce
Pat Cunningham offers an unabashedly liberal perspective on national politics. A note of caution: The language gets a litttle salty on some of the sites to which this blog links. So, don’t say you weren’t warned. By the way, this blog’s name is inspired by the Will Rogers quote, “All politics is applesauce.” |

 It says HERE that it’s all over but the shouting.
 At long last, we have somebody in Congress who can be funny on purpose rather than unwittingly.
 UPDATE: TPM has put together a COLLECTION of the Top Ten Moments in the Coleman-Franken battle.

Because he is good enough, smart enough and people like him!

I suspect that Mr. Franken , from the state that brought us Jesse Ventura, will provide unintentional moments of mirth for the one term he will spend in the Senate.
3. Richard | June 30th, 2009 at 4:05 pm
Oh Great, another loon from left field. I am sure Franken has great credentials as another left wing nut. Is there such a thing as a good ol’ middle of the road demacrate anymore? Lieberman types seem to have fallen off the radar.

It’s okay Richard, you’ve still got Michele Bachman from the lake state.

WOO-HOO!
So, who gets to clean up the mess in the Fox News studios left by Bill O’Reilly’s exploded head? Richard? Realfoxnews? Michael Jessen?
Senator Al Franken (D-MN).
Sweet! More GOP comeuppance for punishing us with 8 long years of one miserable Buch/Cheney failure after another.
Deal with it, Cons!!

So Orlando, Tell me how raising taxes all over the place is going to fix our problem? If that is what you believe, then tell me why. Your boy has already out spent eight years of Bush and still has over three years left. Just put a little meat and potatoes on my plate. Do more than just recite what you heard last night on MSNBC with Keith Overbite.

Just another clown for the Democratic circus. But no one is laughing at their governing the U.S. into oblivion, except our enemies. I hope 2010 isn’t too late to stop the madness.

Just another stolen election period. Tick Tock Tick Tock Tick Tock

Just getting even for 2000. Ha!

Well, he was never funny as a comedian, so maybe at least we will not have to suffer through his attempt at humor any longer.
11. Pat Cunningham | June 30th, 2009 at 7:44 pm
Stolen election? That’s funny.
12. echo4charlie | July 1st, 2009 at 7:07 am
Is Jack Handey going to be in his cabinet?
13. realfoxnews | July 1st, 2009 at 7:17 am
I guess you Dem’s don’t think raising the cig tax by 75 cents a pack wasn’t a tax increase, They may not be raising your taxes but they are sure raising the hell out every fee they can.
14. DingDong | July 1st, 2009 at 3:14 pm
Stolen, pretty close. Interesting article on this subject.

not a very funny joke
16. Richard | July 1st, 2009 at 6:29 pm
Stolen election? That’s funny. Say Pat.
The election was stolen by going to counties where Franken was strong and creating extra votes from absentee and rejected ballots. How can you have confidence in an election where the rules on how to count the votes change from district to district.
You can’t.
17. Pat Cunningham | July 1st, 2009 at 6:51 pm
Give it up, Richard. If there was good evidence that the election was stolen, Norm Coleman could take the case to the Supreme Court, which has a conservative majority. Instead, he’s conceded the election to Franken. Game’s over. Good guy wins.
18. mike | July 1st, 2009 at 7:51 pm
Not so fast Pat. Head of ACORN presided over the vote count…….developing
19. Nelson | July 1st, 2009 at 9:15 pm
Richard,
I’ll bet you weren’t complaining when Bush stole the election of 2000.
You raise a good point about confidence in the election proocess. After the Presidential election of 2000, I have very little confidence in ANY elction.
I’m, actually, quite surprised that Norm Coleman couldn’t find a way to rig the election to retain his Senate seat. After all, he is a Republican.

Richard says, “Your boy has already out spent eight years of Bush and still has over three years left.” Where’s ;your proof Richard? Where’s the source for your information?
mike says, “Just another stolen election period.” Where’s your proof? What’s the source for your information?
You characters just make stuff up as you go along don’t you? If you didn’t, you’d provide some proof. But there isn’t any because it doesn’t exist.
21. Richard | July 2nd, 2009 at 7:46 am
Where the hell have you been? All the money been spent just magically appear off our wish list?
