Minnesota Senate Recount Update

[jakeway85]

This legal battle is madness. It's clear that Minnesota has no particular passion for either one of them if they couldn't definitively choose. I do believe Minnesotans wanted their old governor, a true patriot, Jesse Ventura, to be seated. Why don't these two A-holes just withdraw completely and allow 3rd place to be seated so Minnesota can get some actual representation!

[foxxx2001]

Of coarse the jew Al Franken will "win".

Wake up people why are jews suddenly everywhere in government.

The Elections are RIGGED!

[idaman12345]

oh shut up franken will win cause more people voted for him not cause hes a jew

[sisubilly]

Norm is jewish.

[lazyidiotofthemonth]

That specific senate seat has been held by a jewish man for the last twenty odd years

[thebestman200699]

a recount was done during the first presidential race between gore/bush, after the tally had gore winning in florida, a distict female judge went ahead and appointed bush president by winning. give it up refucklicans, coleman has lost by 50 votes. and it is great as coleman is as corrupt as george w bush. fuckkem both.

[karichurch1]

hahahahah......and ted stevens bought them all for 1mil of our tax money, raping young boys like a good republican

[flyboymd82]

This just in, Franken has pulled ahead. Blagoevich found 300 ballots under his matress and sold them to Franken for only $5.00 a piece! When asked how they got there, Blago said "Fuck if I know motherfucker but they are GOLDEN!!!!"

Dirty, dispicable lowlife democrats!

[idaman12345]

this just in, your a moron

franken won, and now mr hypocrit er coleman wants to take it away from him

[flyboymd82]

You might want to refrain from calling others "morons" when you spell and use grammar on a 3rd grade level~! LOL!

Typical ingnorant libtard!

Franken recieved more votes in several Counties than there were people REGISTERED to vote you jackass. Did you know that?

Did you know they were caught running ballots thru machines two and three times?

Did you know the dispicable liberals "found" ballots in trunks of cars? Did you know they are refusing to count absentee and military ballots? Moron!

[idaman12345]

ok if ou want to play conspiracy theorist ill play along,

wasnt it coleman the day after (or days after) the election suggesting to franken that he forgo the recount process?

now why would he suggest that if he was truely the winner? let the process play out and show that he is truely the winner

but like every republican he only cares about cheating to win the election

[flyboymd82]

You keep on with your lie's and smears. Its the democrats who lie, cheat and steal.

What I said isn't a "conspiracy", its FACT. Look it up for yourself.

If Franken wanted to do a recount. Why does he want it to stop now that he's "ahead" and not count any more?? He doesn't want to count the military or absentee ballots...Hmmmm Strange huh?? They are Cheating! Its FRAUD! Its PROVEN to be a fraud. Why do you keep giving silly arguements?? Everyone knows Franken is trying to steal this thing!

[idaman12345]

lies and smears? ok right try the truth coleman knew he couldnt win because he knew hecouldnt win fair and square and is trying to pull the same shit bush did in 00

[shibman1103]

No, it has not been proven to be fraud. It may be proof enough for you but, thankfully, that is not a litmus test for actual proof in what I like to call "reality".

[GeorgeDRange]

Funny, amidst allegations of fraud and dirt dealing on the right, people like Ann Coulter side with the good people of Minnesota, while railing on Franken.

Three points: One, Franken, a cum laude graduate of Harvard has a real flair for economics as anyone who has read his books can attest. Good job qualities.

Two: If there is a recount problem, it means it was a close race, right? It's not like nobody wanted him for Senate.

Three: (Respectfully) Same state that elected Jesse Ventura.

[ericthered11]

yeah franken is a faggot who is prob doing voter fraud

i went into a mcdonalds today and found some al franken votes

courtsey of k talk 100.3

[flyboymd82]

Stop trying to steal the election Franken, you lowlife scurvy slimbag!

Democrats are corrupt to the core.

[MajinKoenma]

Amen to that.

[kincaded]

LOL!!! Dude, you don't like the the process??? Obviously the votes HAVENT all been counted... how stupid do you have to be to get that??

[idaman12345]

no your wrong the one trying to steal the elction and the lowlife scumbag is coleman not franken

[pfriverrat]

no, your wrong, both are scumbags, and looks like franken is a sore loser, like gore. I am a third party person, they make more sense then the right or left.

[idaman12345]

barkley sure seemed to make sense here in this election funny thing is franken might not lose, and gore didnt lose

[pfriverrat]

gore lost due to the courts holding up a law from the early 1800's, so yes he lost. And what is sad when a dem is close to winning, they love to tie up and bring down the country, for thier cause.

[idaman12345]

your wrong there the republicans are the onese that love to tie up and bring down the country, for thier cause. and the 2000 election was a joke magically coming down to a state run by a bush. also texas has a law about those chad votes, allowing them to be counted, signed by george w bush a bit hypocritical isnt it?

[pfriverrat]

that is why states rights should be imporant, but with the dems, it will never be. and i read it today about the elction law, and for once the courts did thier job, and not push any parties agenda. if you want to feel better, that gore lost the elecoral vote by blaming bush, go ahead. but both parties really don't have a clue what HARD working people need, but when it comes to recounts, looks like the dems are the ones always calling for them. Why can't they understand they can lose?

[idaman12345]

again you have the democrats mixed up with the republicans democrats do have a clue what HARD working people need but of coarse a republican like you wouldnt know that, and by the way in here it was manditory, not al frankens fault that norm stupidly declaired himself winner when it wasnt certain

[pfriverrat]

First, who said i was a gop? I am a free thinker. If i had to pick a party, it would not be the dems or gop. lets see, dems want

1.more taxes(something i really can't pay more of)

2.more government regulation of market(hurts my line of work every time)

3.ban guns(i love to target shoot and hunt)

those are just a few, i could go all night. But untill you open you mind, and listen to people that don't agree with you, why waste my time, cause that is what is wrong with our country

[idaman12345]

free thinker? all youve done is spew right wing talking points

by the way im not the one that needs to open his mind

[pfriverrat]

lol, those i listed are what the left wing wants, you don't want me to talk about the right. don't assume anything about me, cause you know what they say"assumption is the mother of all f--kups! It is hard for dems, or gops to understand the concept of freethinking, cause they have been spoonfed what to say and how to think.But trust me, i have a list just as long for the right wingers too.

[dirtbikernick]

there not banning all guns idiot, just semi auto, or full, which you dont need anyways. its illegal to hunt with semi or full auto anyways, so the only reason to have one is to kill,

[lazyidiotofthemonth]

also handguns.

[leftbehind81]

if u look at this race and its recounts you really have to come to the conclusion not only did Franken win, but he won by a couple of hundred votes.

The current official total does not count the fact that Coleman has challenged like a mad man. They arent even going to recount the rejected ballots to see if there were any mistakes, and the state of minnesota lost an entire package of franken votes. If u look at the votes challenged on the star tribune and colemans bad challenges far out number.

[shadetree6981]

Who cares which one wins, they are both Zionist pigs! That's right Pigs as in Jews! I think there is more Jews in this vid than all of Minnesota!

[Election2Day08]

There both assh*les but I hope Al wins

[psatm]

What's destroying America is the fact that Republicans have controlled the country for the last 8 years. Record deficits, two wars, Bin Laden still at large, record unemployment, record debt, on and on and on.

Say whatever you want 'Susie', if you had a clue you'd know how stupid you sound.

[metanosis]

Was Dems in 98 that pushed for these high risk loans to be made, and Reps who wrote a letter to the chairman of the committee with oversight of Fannie & Freddie in 05 asking him to do something, no Dem signed it. Since Carter conservative policy has improved the nation tremendously, especially low income , home ownership went way up, GulfWar1 a great success, and GW2 looks to be the same, a democracy in Iraq and much safer at home. BO if he implements socialism, will destroy the nation.

[Harpenfarker]

In addition to the "wicked" agenda of most lawyer/politicians (primarilly liberals)to "fragment" our society, whats destroying America is ignorant Americans (YES, like you)who dont understand how their own government works! THE CONGRESS (HOUSE & SENATE) WHO GENERATE LEGISLATION AND CONTROLL THE ECONOMY HAS BEEN UNDER "DEMOCRAT" CONTROL SINCE 2006!

[vilhammer44]

Al Franken is not good enough , not smart enough? And by golly, we don't like him !

[psatm]

You mean the book where he calls out people like Ann Coulter, Bill O'Reilly, Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh and specifically points out the lies that they've told? Yeah, I've read his book.

Interesting how the word socialism has caught on with you neocons, since you don't have a successful record to run on, you think of some buzzword that you hope might catch on and scare voters. Doesn't matter that there's no truth to it.

Didn't work this time, people in the country are finally waking up.

[cartwa]

Quit lying - anyone reading your idiotic posts knows damn well your Mommy reads to you at night. You are not smart enough to read on your own. You are why only taxpayers should be allowed to vote. Some day, when you are smart enough to actually take my order at McDonalds, you will get a pay check and out of that pay check you will pay taxes. Some day, you too can contribute to this country. Until then, remember to thank mommy for wiping your nose when she reads to you.

[psatm]

Listen to the sniveling little whiney neocons, can't stand the fact that America has seen you for the lying con artists you really are. Keep crying little boy, nobody cares.

[psatm]

Explain how he's anti-American, if you can do so without sounding like a crazed Ann Coulter-type NeoCon. By the way, his name is Franken.

[cartwa]

He is also a hypocrit. He was the biggest cry baby ever after the 2000 election complaining how Bush sued himself a victory. He denounced Bush for using the legal system to win Florida. Yet, her is Angry Al doing the same damn thing. What a complete total hypocrit. I guess if Bush is sueing it is wrong but when Al sues, then it is ok.

[psatm]

Damn you don't know anything, do you? The only lawsuit involved in the recount is from the Coleman campaign, who tried to get a restraining order to prevent Minnesota law from being acted upon.

You are a complete waste of breath. Stop posting until you actually know what the hell you're talking about.

[metanosis]

yeah, well what do you expect from a guy who wrote a book,"lies and the lying liars who tell them"..then goes and sends fraudulent letters to Ashcroft and others posing as a Harvard researcher doing a study on sexual behavior in search of dirt, on Harvard letterhead, he was caught and apologized to Harvard and Ashcroft...liberal media never covered it, guys a typical liberal cheating liar....Go Coleman

[psatm]

Hey, why don't you lie about Al Franken lying to Ashcroft. The letter sent to them was to show how hypocritical they were about their own Quakerish views on sexuality by asking them to talk about how they themselves were abstinent before marriage (and of course none of them were). He showed them to be the liars they really are.

His apology was only about posing as Harvard researchers, not about the intent of the letter itself.

Typical neocon cheating liar...Go Franken

[metanosis]

...Franken was trying to get dirt plain and simple, no getting around that,that's as true as the sun coming up tomorrow...and his whole method was fraudulent...

it's the irony that's important....here's a guy accusing others of lying, yet his whole scheme is one big falsehood, and leftist media ignores it, what a double standard, they aren't journalists anymore, they don't deserve the respect, they're rank propagandists and apparatchicks...

[psatm]

No, he simply asked these guys if they live their lives by the same standards as they ask American kids to live. If you can't understand that then that's your own stupidity.

Why don't you apply your own criticism of the 'liberal media' to media giants like Clear Channel, Fox, Wall Street Journal, etc. They are all conservative media. They promote the Republican agenda. Same applies to them.

[metanosis]

no,posed as a researcher going to write a paper "Savin It" about abstinence,he asked for stories in this area. Well, he wasn't a researcher, so that's a lie, he wasn't employed by Harvard, so that's a lie, and he wasn't going to write a paper, so that's a lie. What irony,

from a guy who wrote a book accusing people of lying!amazing. Whats the old saw, people who live in glass houses....regarding name calling, that's the refuge of folk with weak arguments, children, and..of course..libs ;)

[metanosis]

the media!?!CNN, CBS,ABC, NBC, MSNBC,Hollywood Movies and Celebs, TIme, Newsweek, NY Times, WAsh Post, LA times, Detroit Free Press,Colbert Show, Jon Stewart, The View, Maher,...the list is endless....none of which puts out hard news, it's all propaganda/infotainment...last refuge for nonsheeple who think to get an unbiased view is talk radio,

where liberal strategies are analyzed and exposed,which is why the libs want to bring back the "fairness" doctrine...they hate folk

they can't control

[Harpenfarker]

RIGHT ON!

[Harpenfarker]

TRUE!......However what "sticks in ones craw" are the infintile methods used to rationalize the irrational by means of destortion of fact (beyond the point of deception) as practiced by all "left leaning" major US news publishers ie: NY Times, LA Times (& their hundreds of subsidiaries) along with ABC, NBC, CBS (tv & radio) in addition to PBS (my tax dollars!) and the majority of cable news ie: CNN, MSNBC, CNBC et.

[psatm]

Compared to Sean Hannity or Ann Coulter, Franken's book reads like a children's nursery rhyme. You have to be joking.

By the way, when he did several tours with the USO to entertain our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan, I suppose he was 'hating Americans' then?

[cartwa]

Off all people to stick up for. Why the biggest fool to ever run for office in Minnesota? Seriously pal, there is a reason you are a moron. You need to aim higher in life and actually stick up for someone of substance. Please note: no where in any of my posts have I ever stuck up for Coleman. I just think it is pathetic that you are cutting open a vien (poorly I might add) for a guy as bad as Franken. Aim higher maybe then you can move out from Mommy's basement.

[psatm]

The only fucking dumbass voters in Minnesota voted for that Bush puppet fag Coleman.

[cartwa]

In reading your post, I realize using your brain is an actual challenge. I will type this really slow to make it easy for you to understand. If Franken was actually a better choice than Coleman, he would have won by as big of a cushion as Obama did here in Minnesota. Making this recount totally unnecessary.

[psatm]

I notice you don't chastise the original poster for the manner in which he expressed his opinion.

That being said, if the tables were turned and Coleman trailed by 200 votes out of 2 million plus votes, you really think he wouldn't demand a recount?

The recount in Minnesota is being done in accordance to state law, not by a request by any of the candidates. All Franken has asked for is a proper recount to ensure EVERY vote is counted. Coleman keeps trying to shut down it down.

[cartwa]

I only chastise idiots that are so blinded by their love and devotion to the democratic party that they cant see the forest through the trees. I know the law. I know they both will sue the outcome until every person in Minnesota suffers from it. Both these guys are pukes. The fact that you can actually try and defend Franken shows ignorance beyond believeability. I know Coleman sucks but Franken makes Coleman look almost human. Be democrat. Just use your brain. Dont let the dems think for you.

[psatm]

What's funny and moronic about your post is that if Coleman was doing such a great job as the incumbent Senator, he should have defeated an ex-SNL comedian and satiric author in a landslide. Instead, he's seen for the Bush puppet he really is. He led in the polls against Franken by as much as 20 points - how do you explain the outcome of the election? Easy. Just as many people in Minnesota wanted him out as they wanted him to remain. Wow, what an effective, popular Senator he must be.

[cartwa]

Nice try. Way to try steal my logic. Next time try applying actual logic. Look arguing with you is like making fun of retarded people. So, I again will type this slow and hope you understand the big words. Coleman sucks really bad. In fact, if you read the papers or watched the news channels, the republican party isnt really very popular. Also dumb ass, Minnesota is a democratic state. The entire state leans left. So, even if Coleman did a marginal job, he would still have a hard time winning.

[psatm]

Since you offer nothing of substance against my posts, we can all conclude that you're just posting rants. Take your insults and shove them up your ignorant ass.

Minnesota has a Republican Governor. It has 3 Republican congressman. It had one Republican Senator, nobody knows how that's going to turn out, and you call it a Democratic state.

You clearly don't know what you're talking about, you offer nothing intelligent. I'm done with you.

[cartwa]

Try actually reading a newspaper. Sorry but the cartoons on saturday morning are keeping you stupid. Arguing whether Minnesota is a democratic state or not is like arguing if Osama Bin Laden is a terrorist or not. There is no argument. IT IS A FACT. Seriously, if I were as stupid as you, I would have blown my head off long ago. Arguing Franken is a quality person is plain stupid, arguing that Minnesota is NOT a democratic state is beyond stupid. (But it does explain your love for Franken.)

[TarotMoon]

is not veracity part of your name? show some. this matters.

[codediporpal]

4.1 + 452 is not 5 no matter how you shake and bake it, biach!! More hops for the butter pumpers!

[GurnSi]

Norm Coleman = FUCKING CUNT. No fate is too harsh for him. None.

[Gutsyndicate]

Norm + AL =Normal!

[YrNameHr]

don't use the stupid commentator voice, veracifier. keep it serious.

[UpTakeVideo]

You guys are no fun.

[HotLeper]

The repub will lose because Americans have lost faith in repuglicants. All they offer are idiots and religious nuts to represent them.

[Keveeee2000]

So what .... they're just going to keep re-counting until he wins?

[GretchenDawntreader]

interesting question, can you really "recount and augment" the vote, or just recount it period.

[sugarpuddin88]

Gimme a break!

Isn't "voting" pretty much a moot point?

America is a socialist country for corporations

And America is entirely bankrupt!

Shouldn't you be rolling your IRAs over to foreign currency & be working on a second citizenship?!!!

[busherbee]

Funny how republicuns are always AGAINST counting votes of ANY KIND: absentee ballots, poor district ballots, inaccurate purge lists, international citizen ballots, you name it, they don't want to count it LOL

democracy much?

[CleveDan]

"we are the last, best hope of earth"

isn't that Scientology

[kirkenbunken]

Just count the votes again. I don't see what the big deal is. Do a second count of every valid vote and be done with it.

[GradStud28]

Those of us who don't live back home in Minnesota *did* cast our (absentee) ballots in this election - despite that snide remark by the New Yorker's attorney. I sure as hell want my vote counted to get that criminal out of office.

[thielenm]

if your absentee ballot was denied why should it be counted now? i mean we have rules for a reason.

[vertigate]

Could you post an update about the tpmtv YouTube channel? :-)

[CYLONEJACK]

I wonder how many "close" races republicans won could have been contested and then found they didnt really win in the end. I bet these aholes have been cheating at all levels.

[wcarlpdrysdale]

tell that to Ron Paul ;~}

[busherbee]

republicun cheat. it's their method of operation. it's at the very core of their being.

and yet their religious brood don't have aaaannnnyy problem with that. see webster's dictionary for 'hypocrites'

[GETALIFEPEOPLE]

Or just pay attention at school so the word 'hypocrite' is not something you need a dictioary to understand!! See webster's dictionary for 'dropout'.

(Sorry. Couldn't resist - agree with your comment re: GOP)

[alnewberry]

I'm sure the same could be said of democrats. Politics is a dirty game which attracts the worst elements of society. After all, what kind of person seeks to exercise power over the rest? Certainly not many I would trust.

[busherbee]

that there are examples on both sides does not absolve us of measuring or paying attention to which side is overwhelmingly more corrupt, especially when the ratio is (generously) 70% more corrupt and 500% more destructive.

[Albedo238]

Well, while this whole thing in Minnesota is still going on, look on the bright side; at least Mark Begich beat out Ted Stevens for the Alaska seat.

[jenisoutofhermind]

The tone was perfect. I loved it!!!

[gamoonbat]

Norm Coleman is the last best hope of Earth!

[THEVELCH]

If that's so, we're fucked!

[Pleblian]

"Norm Coleman is the last best hope of Earth!"

Yes he is... if you're a martian

[psatm]

If that's true we should all kiss our collective asses goodbye.

Moonbat is a fitting name for you.

[gamoonbat]

You guys are no fun.

[sarcasmosis]

Why does this have to be narrated by a third-rate muppet? Can't we just get the news straight?

[sachaput]

that was exactly how I felt! Why the wacky voice? If you need that at least get Jim from the Stephanie Miller show.

[GETALIFEPEOPLE]

I totaly agree. It's as if he thought his audience were a bunch of child minded idiots who need a silly voice to remain interested. Oh, wait a minute...

[NatureLegalized]

I always think of worm & Coleman synonymously.

[brabon1]

why did tpm get suspended? what the hell is wrong with youtube?

[WKaliber1]

ron paul sucks dck

[StephinRazin]

then bush must give reacharounds to 12 year old boys while getting a golden shower before munging a dead horse

[WKaliber1]

keep your sick perverted fantasies to yourself

[alnewberry]

Now that was totally uncalled for. And completely unrelated to the video in question.

[WKaliber1]

yaawn

go cry to ur mommy

[McCainTheTurdburglar]

I can't believe anyone would vote for Coleman. That dude is sleazy.

[dralavant]

Either the republicans win the seat or not, THE DEMOCRATS STILL RULE!!!!

[WhoRonPaul]

the relevance of roasting turkeys in November becomes strikingly clear upon observing this process

[dythaka]

buttholes

[BullnBearAnalytics]

Where's TPM? account suspended?

[HAPrime]

Veracifier and TPM split into two different feeds.

TPM is now TPMTV

[BullnBearAnalytics]

Try checking their channel lately? It says Account Suspended over on TPM

[alnewberry]

Checked them all. Didn't see that on any of them.
