  • Al franken is a comedy legend-usually the good comedians like him and not larry the cable guy are the smart ones-You Go Girl!

  • informationauth,

    Al Franken wasn't elected. He used voter fraud. He is against everything that the people of Minnesota want.

  • David Letterman seems to tie anything he does into making fun of bush. Pathetic.

  • Why not? Bust makes for some hilarious comedy. That's like calling a carpenter pathetic for using an electric nail gun. Sure it's easy, but it works.

  • Instead of Letterman making a joke of Al Fraken, he dicides to make fun of Bush. Are you serious?

    I'll be laughing at the people in fucken minnesota when Al Fraken makes look bad. Are the people in minnesota stupid? How could they elect this guy.

  • frank the motha fucking tank

  • Actually he's doing a great job so far. Do you know anything about his politics or stances on issues? Or just hate him because he's liberal? I mean, I'm liberal, but I like a ton of conservatives based upon their records and stances.

  • Do you actually think he knows anything about laws and the constitution?

    Non of these politicians. Look at the people who write the taxes!!!! Everybody all of a sudden forgot or didn't even fallow the very own tax laws they wrote.

    It's pathetic.

  • Well, any more than say... Ronald Regan? Politicians don't have to be experts on everything, they have to have sound judgment and an intrinsically honest nature. They make decisions based on the facts that experts in respective fields present. The principal doesn't have to know more math than the math teacher to be an excellent administrator.

  • @informationauth My dear, if you are going to make a comment deriding others as stupid, your point will seem more persuasive if you use proper spelling, capitalization and punctuation. It kind of casts a shadow of a doubt on your credibilty when you use cumbersome, inarticulate language like 'makes look bad'. I can see how you'd be sensitive about people making fun of Bush, you seem to have a lot in common with him.

  • how about reagan's acting background? or how about his failed stint as governor of california...where he left the state is so much debt is still stuffers today?

  • i can not help but think of stewart smawley when i see any of his senate ads.

    having said that we all know stuart saved his family now lets see if he cant save minesotta.

    He got my vote

  • Gal Franken lost the election.

    Give it up Gal Franken!

    Quit disenfranchising voters with your ridiculous ballot challanges.

    Go back to writing lame skits for SNL.

    Stuart Smally! That's the stupidest skit ever on SNL. The only thing that's funny about that skit is that you made a movie of it!

    ROFL!

  • Al Franken, Michael Moore, Bill Maher...Three mediocre comedians who take themselves far too seriously as politicians. Dealing with hecklers is their only experience at debate. They are all immature ass-hats.

  • "A Message from Al Franken"

    DON'T PAY YOUR TAXES! I DIDN'T.

  • There's nothing funny about Al Franken. His writing for SNL was some of the worst material the show ever did - real sleepers. The audience clapped wildly only because the torturous skit was finally over. He's an angry little putz who shouldn't be trusted with political responsibility.

  • Letterman is a tool.

  • Who's next? Chris Rock for Congressman or maybe you'd prefer Jim Carry. The guy needs to stick to comedy and forget about politics.

  • Yeah, really.

  • AHAHAHAHA...

  • I agree with you, Loki, and in fact more stupid by a magnitude- look at the 2000 and 2004 presidential results

  • Go Al, Your air america show was top rated and you will become a top rated senator.

  • What drives me crazy is the fact that most people who hate Franken do so just for the fact that he's a liberal who makes fun of conservatives. Either that or they don't understand the meaning of his satire. And also, for anyone saying that he's not funny or not a good comedian, that one ad was just quick, cheap humor that could fit in Letterman's show. Not to mention his work with SNL (as a writer, mostly), his books, and his radio show.

  • I'm not sure if Americans are ready to vote for a socialist.

  • Let's stick to facts, folks, he didn't fail at TV (hugely successful writer during SNL glory years), his radio show WAS successful (the network filed for bankruptcy, not his show), beating Limbaugh and other cons in the ratings in several markets. He's smarter than most and knows the issues...

  • @essar1 Al Franken likes gerbils inside of his person

  • @TAXtheAtheist

    Okay TAXtheAtheist..

    You've been trolling Youtube for months now. Don't you think it's finally time to give it a break? I'm really starting the question the quality of life of a boy who makes a profile for the express purpose of trolling and uses it everyday for 7 months.

  • Video was funny, but Al Franken is no comedian. YOu have to make people laugh in order to be a comedian. Al is no comedian.

  • Not interested unless Bill O'Reilly will agree to run against him.

  • Al franken is one of the few respectable pundits out there, he prides himself in being factually accurate, he rarely erupts in a screaming fit when he's arguing with someone like most right wing pundits, his political roots are based upon the personal experience of his parents having to raise 5 kids after his father died, welfare barely go them through. He's been involved with politics for many many years and he's more then qualified

  • Franken is the blue cloud during this very gray time in our country. thanks for making us feel we are not alone.

  • well you can tell they are leftist

    they didnt put in john kerries joke

  • He was a lousy comedian, and would probably make a lousy Senator. Like most of his ilk, he has a lot of criticisms, but no constructive suggestions. What a jerk.

  • Wow. That's pathetic. Jesse the Body, anyone? Nothing better than reaffirming you're a complete and thorough joke, Minnesota. Bush is a putz but Franken never makes you believe he's anywhere above that exact level.

  • Franken should run.  Just not for office. He should run and keep running all the way to the Kremlin or The MEXICAN BORDER. They'll love over there. AYA! CHIWAWA!!! HAHAAAAA OHHHH MISSSTER FRANKENNN YOU SO FUNYE!!!!

  • considering that minnesota elected a wrestler as governor, franken has a decent shot

  • Did ANYONE manage to watch "air Areica" for more than fifteen minutes without not wantting to put this pinhead out of his misery? It would be a mercy killing!!! I laugh more when I masterbate with a cheese grater!

  • Who are we kidding?

    Politicians <i>are</i> comedians!

    :)

  • I would not call him a comedian, he hasn't been funny since Saturday Night Live in the 70's. I guess he has nothing else to do since AirAmerica went down in flames. Hey maybe George Soros can donate to his campaign and lose more money on him.

  • I hope he wins. I don't want to see Stuart Saves His Family II...

  • al franken is the most honest man in the biz. fact check him. hes always right!

  • Go Al!

  • Al Franken is quite possibly one of the only individuals who is valued for his failures rather than his accomplishments. I don't know how he did it, but I'm taking notes. I want to get rich and famous off failure.

  • Al Franken WHO ??? Another 15 minutes of fame....

  • The conservatives certainly aren't lacking for quick witless insults...they never do...LOL!

  • Al Franken looks like a cross between Harry Potter and The Joker.

  • Al Franken looks like a cross between Harry Potter and The Joker.

  • AGREE TO EPIC.

  • If protecting people's civil rights, helping people live better lives, and saving people in disasters makes people like Franken, Penn, and Clooney losers we need more losers in America! And Fewer winner, war mongers like GW!

  • This guy was a failure in everything he did. Don't we have enough idiots in Washington.

  • His ridiculous glasses make him look like a fool. It doesnt matter who you Americans vote in, you had 3 chances not to elect the idiot Bush, and you kept voting him in. So vote for who you like, I for one will be waiting to critisise your choice regardless of who your next president is.

  • I'm not a Franken fan, but that slogan was great!! "Eatin' Good in the Neighborhood!"

  • I'd vote for Al Franken.

  • Franken looks more like the "Missing Link" between chimps and humans than anyone I've ever seen...

  • please don't elect this delusional man to congress.

  • franken's a supreme jackass with NO BUSINESS in the Senate (or House, whichever he's running for)

  • brilliant!

  • Franken's a Dork.

  • Al Franken is the man

  • Al Franken sux....

  • epic.

  • 5000 views and no comments?  Discuss amongst yourselves: If Bush hates black people, and Letterman hates Bush, does Letterman love Kenye West?

  • He failed television, film, radio, and now most likely politics.

  • Go Franken!!

  • I'd vote for him

  • A funnier bit would have been to say Al Franken can't be called a comedian, because he's not funny.

    (Which would have been honest but non in line with Late Show's Left lean.)

  • Al franken P4wns

  • Lou Zer

  • good luck Al... read your books and if what you wrote is a glimpse of what you wish to employ as a politician, then the future of the nation is bright indeed.

  • Stuart Smalley goes to Washington. With DNC funding of Air America running out, and the reality of daily talkshow host life setting in...

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

    Michael Savage predicted Al would quit, the day went on the air.

  • poor al, he doesn't know it but he's the joke...poor thing!

  • YA SÜPER YA

  • Typical fruitcake democrat.

  • The problem with Franken -- he's not funny as a comedian. They needn't defend his craft since his defining moment as an entertainer was playing a gorilla in Eddie Murphy's, "Coming to America." Perhaps his public-policy and leadership experience stems from owning a dog? Spare of Albert - Air America is a perfect fit. Out of sight, out of mind and out of range.

  • Franken is the MAN!! Franken for Prez!!

  • george bush slapstick comedy, thats hilarious.

  • GO AL!!

  • Al Franken is an unqualified idiot.

  • Not nearly as good as it could have been. Al Franken's running for Senate and all you got is Bush doing slapslick as your punchline? Write some more inventive comedy.

  • Letterman=funny

    Franken=not funny

    If his political aspirations fail to materialize, he can always fall back on his broadcast radio career. XD

  • I feel sorry for poor al.... he doen't know it but he's the joke.

  • Franken is a piece of sh*t

  • Franken And Davis For President in 2016!

  • boo!

  • that's hilarious!

  • Yeah. Stick a red foam ball on his nose and the picture is complete.

  • Yakkety sax makes everything good.

  • He failed in films, he failed in radio, and now he will fail in politics.

  • LMFAO.

    Damn, that's fine!  Why should we not have a comedian in place of the bloody clowns we've got now?

    Clownphobia here, and let's draft Franken.

  • I love Franken, im not even from Minnesota nor do I ever want to go there but I'll give him money.

  • Al Franken for Pres!

  • nice!

  • lol

  • Al Franken can make a good Senator or President. It takes intelligence, wisdom about human emotions and a sense of giving to the people to have a sense of humor. Besides he is a political comedian -- it's like a movie critic becoming a movie director/producer.

    If his principles and values are those that will elevate the United States and has the courage to get stand up to the Congressional-Military-Industr­ial Complex, Big Pharma, Big Oil and King Coal then he will be good statesman.

  • Goog luck Al!! if minnesota has smart people they will unanimously elect you..
