If they chastised and ejected every member of the House or Senate who ever started to nod off during a hearing or testimony, the Congress Chambers would be entirely empty.
Give the man a break. The last Senate Majority Leader was visibly quite sleepy during Obama's State of the Union Address last year, and John McCain fell sound asleep during one of George Bush's !

@avi8r1 You call that a blink?? Definition of Blink: Blinking is the voluntary rapid closing and opening of the eyelid. It is an essential function of the eye that helps spread tears across and remove irritants from the surface of the cornea and conjunctiva. .. The key word is rapid. He was clearly dosing of during a speech. I mean why stand up for the guy? It's not supposed to prove anything other than the fact that he was caught dosing off, when he should have been paying attention.
Hell the man was up drinking late into the night partying with the rest of them while Rome is burnign and now he has force to work for his pay check and listen to BS from Kagan the Pagan who can talk your ear off but nothing worth crap comes out of her mouth.
"I wasn't sleeping, I was contemplating the immense beauty before me, the vast wisdom bestowed on my beautifully coiffed self, wondering for a moment, have we truly reached the pinnacle of brilliance? Is there any higher mankind can possibly go?" - A.F.
Kagen said - " I think that the question of what I believe as to what people's rights are outside the Constitution and the laws, that you should not want me to act in any way on the basis of such a belief."
@bond519 A long career in show business equals failure to Right Wing Nuts? Interesting, I'm starting to understand why everything the Right Wing claims turns out to be wrong or bad or stupid.
@eelzen: A long acting career? Ther is only one acting role that he was any good at and that was questionable. That was the stupid drunk baggage handler. I guess he didn't have to act very much for that role. Other than than what did he do? SNL? That show sucked most of the time too.
@bond519 Franken had a long career in show business mostly as a writer. Now he's a US Senator. And I bet he doesn't quit his job if the going gets rough like some air head beauty queen would.
@eelzen: Long career but that doesn't mean successful. Hell Al Frankenstein will quit before he does anything worth value. He is just another laughingstock of this Government. Well at least he is following the Chicago street bum Barack Osama and his wookie wife.
@eelzen: I would rather be a factory worker and earn a nominal wage than some immoral jackass like Al Frankenstein. Of course he fits right in with all of the immoral jackasses like the Chicago Sreeet bum Obama.
@bond519 The Reaganites sent all the factory jobs overseas decades years ago dude. Now we're seeing the outcome of them giving public resources to mutli-national corpateers who pass out coke and brainwash the masses with highly rated hate talk BS MEdia. Go look in the mirror and see the immorality staring back you.
@eelzen: First of all I didn't see Regan or Bush sending Jobs overseas. But companies did. Blame the unions for that and sorry to burst your buble but the Democrates are responsible for that. Maybe before you comment with your communistic comments you should actually have some truth to what you say.
@eelzen: I will admit to that. If the American people would hold our elected officials accountable for what we want rather than vote party lines we wouldn't have most of the crap out there that is going on. Have a good 4th of July.
People. Get a clue. Franken's questions were more thoughtful (and, I might add, more non-partisan) than almost any of his peers, excepting Feingold and Klobuchar. Watch his segment and contract it with Jeff Sessions. Until then, this is purely a distraction.
I guess pointing out that Al Franken nodded off at the hearing is a good distraction from the fact that Kagan's critics got absolutely destroyed by her testimony.
@quizerry Yeah because being a good actress is really what gets you through congressional hearings unscathed... It couldn't possibly be her complete knowledge of the facts surrounding her history, or her acute understanding of law. Did you even watch the hearings?
Wow is that what sleeping is now? FYI Al Franken is one of the realest muthafuckas on the Senate, and one of the only guys actually fighting for the people.
To his defense, All of them have a written copy of what she is reading and have read it before she came there to read it to the senate. My Dad was in Virginia's General Assembly and I asked him the same question one time, why was he napping during someones speech? He told me that he had already it. So it's not like they're not paying attention to what's being said.
@wheresbrody Right? I was thinking the same thing. What's funnier than the clip itself is the desperation behind putting it up in the first place - heh heh
@TylerNull Are you really saying this is how he always is? Really? God, some of you are desperate, and boring. Can you come up with something based on the actual big picture instead of a snapshot in time? make your insults count for something worthwhile. Damn.
Kudos for Al Franken. Probably he realizes that she's already chosen before going through the show. Why should he waste his nap over it? May be that's the point he's trying to make.
No better analogy for the government. Nominate an elitist snob with no judicial experience to the Supreme Court, elect a pretend comedian to the senate
@drumuitar I'm not going to argue that either of them are or are not good governmental officials, but if you think that having a failed acting career automatically makes you a bad senator, then you are a damn fool.
Collectivists fall into one or more of the following categories: criminal, incompetent, clown.
Kagan qualifies as incompetent ... when asked, "Can the govt tell people what to eat?" during Senate hearings, she responded, "Uhhhhh..." (That was a tough question - she had to think hard to devise a smarmy lib answer without sounding like a Nazi.)
But, Franken is incompetent AND a clown! (Who knows, he may be a criminal, too.)
This is not true, misleading title. he was obviously awake and blinking. Now, he may have been tired... but again, that is not sleeping, or being caught sleeping. Why don't you post meaningful stories rather than lies?
@Arconna .... Franken has been asleep for many years. He's just another imbecile on the left trying to stay awake while not hearing someone even dumber babble-on senselessly.
Democrats are dicks! They're reckless, arrogant, stupid dicks. And the Republicans are pussies. And Obama is an asshole. Pussies don't like dicks, because pussies get fucked by dicks. But dicks also fuck assholes: assholes that just want to shit on everything. Pussies may think they can deal with assholes their way. But the only thing that can fuck an asshole is a dick, with some balls. The problem with dicks is: they fuck too much or fuck when it isn't appropriate
@bigdsears that is literary the dumbest comment I have ever heard.....not even joking... how old are you? and if you say anything over 10 you should feel sorry for yourself
Is government going to talk about jobs as people waited for promises?
They broke their promises. BP oil spill. It's BP job to take care the oil. People help them to bail out BP oil spill clean. Are you saying job creation is a joke.
HEY! everyone of you idiots need to leave Franky boy alone! He already knows he is going to confirm her. Sitting there is just a formality. One which he has decided is no important in his busy day of being a complete fucking loser waste of space. I mean he has important things on his mind. Like the release of the long awaited sequel to "Stuarts Family". So cut a dumb liberal fucknut some slack. After all, Kennedy slept thu years in office. Or is that slept with everyone in office. I get mixed up
Listen simpletons! Al Franken does not need to be weighed down by this mindless nonsense. A truely intellectual mind like Franken's tires easily with this kind of B.S. and may day-dream all it wants about the wonderful progressive legislation that could be voted on in lieu of this sham hearing. Thank you Minnesota. Thank you.
Franken is a "Straight from casting" congressperson who has been there a couple terms to many. He makes me laugh...
The Supreme court nomination process is a farce these days. Nothing of value comes from it. For one of three branches of our government it's a freakin joke.!
I'm amazed how stark the political division in our country is these days.
Is it naturally occuring? Or are we being manipulated?
@AmericanPowerBase Nice job Minnesota...this is the type of asshole you wanted to represent you. Well done. Idiots Just remember you Minnesota Sportsman...guys like this asshole don't want you to own guns and if he had his way.....well
@pieceomeat Sportsman didnt vote for Franken loser. Most of our population lives in the 2 major urban centers Minneapolis and St. Paul. Career welfare supporters ALL LIBERALS who think this is very funny. The rest of the state is conservative and would never have voted for Fu-Man Franken! Nor did they.
@pUnKxaSxfuK Well God bless you then!!! But you sound alot like Wisconsin....Madison and Milwaukee dictate to the working class there. Most of the Democrats in the Majority of the State are good hardworking, church going people....but they..pay no attention to what their Elected officals actualy believe in or vote for. I fucking love Minnesota buddy. I have been fishing in the boundary waters many times. Its a gorgeous state...and yes you are right about the pop centers...
@pUnKxaSxfuK but look at many of the local elections....even in the rural areas...the populace seems to be under the same old tired misconception that the democraps are there for the working man. Good luck to you...but Franken...is just an embarassment man. Kagan is just playing the game...if she had the chance...her "interpretation" of the Constitution is a vision of the Country that most Minnesotans would abhor! Thats just a fact.
This is actually better than when he was a comedian. Look at him pursing his lips trying to look like he is listening, interested, engaged, and an otherwise a useful person. What an ass. I am sure he will respond with some kind of "humorous" quip on how boring and senseless these hearings are. Al Franken you are boring and senseless.
He might as well sleep the stupid fuck doesn't know whats going on anyway. Mybe he will do America a favor and die in his sleep. He will go to hell for stealing that senate seat.
I hope you rot of cancer to death in an Obamacare state hospital nightmare and then the death panels euthanize you because you no longer have worth to the progressive marxist nightmare police state.
@HateRepublicans Thanks, there is no better way to die. If what you say is true with the democRATs running the country right now why are things so bad? Can you explain? Maybe your hate is displaced?
Now,let me get this straight,al franken(horrible comedian) is making laws for us and OBAMANATION wants this imbecilic women(never been a judge),to rule on them.Yes america this really is happening,thank you for voting for that incompetent moron in the white house!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@f01863 go to hell you creep! franken and obama have done a thousand times more honest work in a single week than any corporate shill of a candidate you've ever supported.
@ho2cultcha Wow,such anger,"can't we all just get along".Creep,LMAO.Going by your statement that a "corporate shill",does no honest work,than 1000 times nothing = nothing,hence OBAMANATION!Keep well my liberal friend.
@ho2cultcha - haha! still believing the hype huh. So much BP money to OBama... and all those lobbiests in the WH oh no... and what about his Goldman Sachs ties? LOL come on wake up kid. i could care less that Franken fell asleep. i would too listening to an 'unqualified hand picked fence setting until i get confirmed' candidate. Maybe Peace loving Barry Soetoro-Obama can make good on 1 promise and end a war or two. oh wait - he is expanding them. awesome job kiddos.
@ho2cultcha yes, we should turn over our entire economy to those who never even run a pop stand. they could blame bush for everything as they watch the entire nation melt down, fill with gushing oil and trillions in debt. the world is now giving obama's economic plan the finger and every two bit banana republic is close to getting nuclear weapons. he said he would fundamentally change the nation and so far has succeeded beyond even jimmy carter's wildest dreams. yes we can.
Must have been up too late talking into his mirror. "I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and gosh darnit Minnesotans like me" Well we also were the only state to vote for Mondale for President.
If he was sleeping, why didn't you show it in the video? No doubt he looks tired in the video, but since he's blinking, I really don't think you could truthfully say he was sleeping. Maybe there is another video that shows him sleeping, but this one is not it.
How in the world can she be considered for a Supreme Court justice position when she has not been a judge? When she has written about Supreme Court hearings as being 'vapid and hollow?' I really don't get it. Does common sense... and realistic thought... go out the window the minute people set foot in Washington? she is just like Sotomayor. Sotomayor was ask at her conformation hearing if she thought people should be able to bear firearms, and she said yes. Today she voted no.
Ahhhhh, I can finally rest assure...Fucking up the good old USA one marxist at a time...

HEY! everyone of you idiots need to leave Franky boy alone! He already knows he is going to confirm her. Sitting there is just a formality. One which he has decided is no important in his busy day of being a complete fucking loser waste of space. I mean he has important things on his mind. Like the release of the long awaited sequel to "Stuarts Family". So cut a dumb liberal fucknut some slack. After all, Kennedy slept thu years in office. Or is that slept with everyone in office. I get mixed up

Listen simpletons! Al Franken does not need to be weighed down by this mindless nonsense. A truely intellectual mind like Franken's tires easily with this kind of B.S. and may day-dream all it wants about the wonderful progressive legislation that could be voted on in lieu of this sham hearing. Thank you Minnesota. Thank you.

Franken is a "Straight from casting" congressperson who has been there a couple terms to many. He makes me laugh...
The Supreme court nomination process is a farce these days. Nothing of value comes from it. For one of three branches of our government it's a freakin joke.!
I'm amazed how stark the political division in our country is these days.
Is it naturally occuring? Or are we being manipulated?
I liked Ventura. Minnesota can't be all bad.?

@pieceomeat Sportsman didnt vote for Franken loser. Most of our population lives in the 2 major urban centers Minneapolis and St. Paul. Career welfare supporters ALL LIBERALS who think this is very funny. The rest of the state is conservative and would never have voted for Fu-Man Franken! Nor did they.

@pUnKxaSxfuK Well God bless you then!!! But you sound alot like Wisconsin....Madison and Milwaukee dictate to the working class there. Most of the Democrats in the Majority of the State are good hardworking, church going people....but they..pay no attention to what their Elected officals actualy believe in or vote for. I fucking love Minnesota buddy. I have been fishing in the boundary waters many times. Its a gorgeous state...and yes you are right about the pop centers...
pieceomeat 1 year ago
@pUnKxaSxfuK but look at many of the local elections....even in the rural areas...the populace seems to be under the same old tired misconception that the democraps are there for the working man. Good luck to you...but Franken...is just an embarassment man. Kagan is just playing the game...if she had the chance...her "interpretation" of the Constitution is a vision of the Country that most Minnesotans would abhor! Thats just a fact.

As much of an ass Al Franken is I can't blame him for sleeping while listening to that boring shit. Elena Kagan is a boring fascist asshole.

This is actually better than when he was a comedian. Look at him pursing his lips trying to look like he is listening, interested, engaged, and an otherwise a useful person. What an ass. I am sure he will respond with some kind of "humorous" quip on how boring and senseless these hearings are. Al Franken you are boring and senseless.

@ho2cultcha yes, we should turn over our entire economy to those who never even run a pop stand. they could blame bush for everything as they watch the entire nation melt down, fill with gushing oil and trillions in debt. the world is now giving obama's economic plan the finger and every two bit banana republic is close to getting nuclear weapons. he said he would fundamentally change the nation and so far has succeeded beyond even jimmy carter's wildest dreams. yes we can.

If he was sleeping, why didn't you show it in the video? No doubt he looks tired in the video, but since he's blinking, I really don't think you could truthfully say he was sleeping. Maybe there is another video that shows him sleeping, but this one is not it.

How in the world can she be considered for a Supreme Court justice position when she has not been a judge? When she has written about Supreme Court hearings as being 'vapid and hollow?' I really don't get it. Does common sense... and realistic thought... go out the window the minute people set foot in Washington? she is just like Sotomayor. Sotomayor was ask at her conformation hearing if she thought people should be able to bear firearms, and she said yes. Today she voted no.
