He's a good man. He fights for people who hate themselves. Conservatives working for jobs that are already gone. What I'm saying is asshole's who hate paying there due's.
@deetjay1 I have a sense of humor. Why would you say that? I think you're funny. I never said that Castor oil is boring. I said Al is boring but his speech is painful. Would you accept that for clarification? I just remembered laughing at his Stewart Smalley bit when I first saw it on SNL. If that makes me more hip for you I'll die a happy man.

Franken is a flipping tool! What a classless act! He is a walking phallic symbol for the world to see and his wife looks like Mr. Ed! Someone give her a carrot!
The Earth's temp peaked in 1998 ,its a normal cycle not caused by man, but rather sunspot activity, which also caused a cycle of warming on our neighboring planets
Anyone who believes otherwise should be embarrassed for being so easily brainwashed and deserves to pay Cap and Trade increases on their electric power bill ( 40%)....now that's an inconvenient truth
What gives with the guy in the back ground? He didn't crack a smile the whole time! I did'nt think that Senetors got Secret Service proptection! Apparently they do because he was messing with that ear piece thing they all have. Come on bro get happy!
Let's hear it for our nation's Secret Service. No political bullshit here: those men and women do an unmatched, heroic job of protecting ALL our nation's representatives, Republican *and* Democratic alike, and they deserve all the praise and support in the world. Our legislators and Presidents/VPs couldn't do their jobs if they couldn't relax, and it's the Secret Service who makes that possible. All the best to them!
"Works completely"? What the hell does that mean? Enron and MCI/Worldcom and the S&L bailout and Bernie Madoff must mean that capitalism and the free markets don't work, either, so let's scrap that system completely and shit on the very idea! Right?
It sounds like you think that the roads should be privatized, too, and there should only be private security forces, and no courts or police or armed services... just whatever you can afford in the free market, right?
I suppose you derive your confidence in your position from the years of research you've done into the issue, yes? I mean, you couldn't possibly say something as stupid as "the climate hoax" just because the right-wing radio voices you follow told you to, could you?
I assume your full, basic position on climate change is "THE LIBERALS HAVE AN AGENDA!!! THEY WANT TO TAKE AWAY OUR FREEDOMS AND DESTROY AMERICA OMG !!!1!!!"? Just like it is on every issue?
No moron, I derive my confidence in my position from the lies in Gores movie, from the fact that the trend for a couple of years is global cooling not global warming, I derive my confidence from scientists not policy-makers in the IPCC, and from the history of the earths climate. And from the fact that it has been much warmer before without a dramatic rise in sealevel.
Most scientists who are experts on the subject agree that climate change is real and that we're at least partially responsible for it. There's no substantial debate about it, but you right-wingers love to invent controversy where none exists. Name some specific scientific bodies that aren't funded by corporate interests.
The last two points you make have no reference, so, like I said before, you're just claiming expertise and being arrogant about it without any credibility or accreditation.
Thank you for admitting that you have no source for your smears and hatemongering, and that you're just a right-wing authoritarian who thinks of Gore as some kind of enemy to be vilified and defamed. Al Gore's a spokesperson, and the vast majority of climate scientists agree with him. I suppose you believe that he won the Nobel Prize because the prize committe has some kind of wild-eyed far-left agenda?
Never mind. You never answer my questions. You just spew dumbass slogans like "Kool-aid".
Fair enough. Do you deny that a vast majority of climate scientists concur with the assertion that man is contributing dangerously to global warming? If it's some kind of silly American liberal conspiracy, why does every other industrialized country in the world agree it's an issue? Are you really going to pull some "vast global conspiracy to socialize the godly US of A" bullshit? I hope not.
It's fun how the Right picks and chooses when to trust experts based upon whether it profits them.
no sense in trying to argue with the global warming cabal they live in a fantasy world where al gore is a super hero and lies are truth and facts are fiction. It must be nice to be so naive. I guess that happens when you only follow the mainstream and let them tell you the "truth"
Wow, instead of discussing the facts or anything of substance, you managed to make 9, count 'em, NINE separate character attacks. Do you always just dismiss anyone who disagrees with you as naive or in a cult? That's disgusting. Is this how you talk to your friends: "Hey, you want to get Chinese? (No, I'm not in the mood for Chinese today.) Oh, yeah, no sense trying to argue with you, you're crazy. go read Daily Kos!" You should be ashamed of yourself for engaging in personal attacks like that.
sorry to correct you johnclavis, You are wrong 30000 scientist, many of whom are climate physicist and Phd's in chemistry are currently suing all gore and the IPPC for their blatant lies. google scientist suing gore and read it and weep. pisces is right albeit a little more coarse.
Well obviously, the way scientific truth is determined is by lawsuit. LOL I remember back in 1909, when Albert Einstein proved the theory of relativity when he sued Isaac Newton! LOL!!! ("Read it and weep?" You're just filled with hatred inside, aren't you?)
First of all, how many of the scientists AREN'T climate scientists, and why not? LOL Secondly, if 30 million scientists say climate change is a problem, and 30K say it ain't, isn't that pretty much the end of that?
Now I see clearly who you are. You're an attention whore. How quaint! Enjoy your pathetic attempts at angering those who laugh at you. You are an insignificant. Follow your leaders, slave; as they lead you to your demise. As far as "my buddy" I am sure he or she grew bored, playing with the dumb baby. sometimes it's best to just let the baby have their game. Infinitus est numerus stultorum!
Again, you're confusing me with a Republican. It wasn't a liberal who's Eleventh Commandment was to put tribal loyalty before loyalty to country. It was that POS Reagan.
And how is it following a leader to respect the opinion of millions of climate scientists? Who the fuck is an authority on the climate if not climate scientists, stupid? Again, how many of the "30000" aren't climate scientists? What a surprise that you change the subject.
I present facts, you sling childish slurs. Typical.
Oh yeah! fatso face. I know you are; but what am I? Ok you're right. The .22 degree average temperature increase over the last century is going to kill us all. Why at this rate In a thousand years it might be 1.5 degrees hotter. I shudder to think of the consequences. I might have to take my sweaters out of storage a week or two later. Damn that Al Gore!!!! first he invents the internets (sic) then this. Bastard!
The strength of your argument overwhelms me. Here I was, going along with scientific evidence and reason and rationality, when all this time, I should've taken some isolated and probably incorrect factoid out of context and used it to sarcastically ridicule climate science like a dick! What rhetorical brilliance you display!
What kind of idiot thinks that schoolyard taunts like "Al Gore invented the internet" are at this point anything other than a pathetic self-admission of irrelevance?
Yawn! While I would love to truly argue this issue; I feel it is fruitless. Let me preface this with; We global warming deniers don't object to the decrease or elimination of fossil fuels. What most of us are concerned with is the tax on carbon dioxide; one of the building blocks of life. Your pal gore owns the consortium that will institute this tax against business and individual alike. For god's sake the contrary evidence is everywhere. type global warming hoax into a search engine.infowars
BTW, your buddy pisces never responded when I asked him why most scientists disagree with him. I guess he left you to do his job, and you failed as badly as he did. All you had in your utility belt is a bunch of personal attacks. Yawn. I'm so overwhelmed by your insults. Let me save you some time. Despite everything you might believe, liberals' minds don't actually work like yours does. I understand that you have no principles and always defer to authority, but that's not what we do. Really.
Senator Stuart Smalley embarasses the Democrats again, if that's even possible! T Boone Pickens comes in to talk about wind energy and Little Stewie starts screaming at him about the swift boat ads from 2004! Way to look toward the future of clean energy STEWIE! What a freaking TOOL!
Good Lord! Al Franken is the final turd circling the drain of what once was an esteemed institution, the US Senate!
Franken and his cronies with ACORN basically stole this election with the help of the Democratic (Socialists) Worker's Party political machine which includes those board of elections directors who "found" new votes for Franken. Read it for yourself! Oh, I'm sorry, you're Franken voters..YOU CAN'T READ! My bad! Franken will be a rubber stamp for the leftist ObamaBots in DC!
Franken is a Democrat in name only. His positions are very nuanced and quite often conservative with a lower-case "c". He doesn't believe in ideology over sense and facts.
Set your conspiracy theories aside and look at the facts. You will realize you actually got a Senator who will try to represent the people, not a belief system.
Also, I don't know what history of the Senate you've been reading but its been full of people with much worse backgrounds than Franken for hundreds of years.
Oh noes! LOL ACORN Is coming to get me! And they're bringing SQUIRREL and CHIPMUNK!!! LOL boogah boogah boogah!!!
In 20 years, ACORN got about as much federal money as Halliburton got IN ONE DAY during the Iraq War. But let's shit on anybody who accused President Cheney of war profiteering and instead let's attack ACORN. Good work. Nice priorities. Stellar job going after the real criminals.
Republicans are assholes. It can't be said enough.
Haliburton is the only oil rig company large enough to do the work that was required at that speed. ACORN uses money to give advice on making prostitutes out of 13 year old girls and avoiding taxes......'real criminals"?
I say your assertion about Halliburton is bullshit. But let's say it isn't. What does your claim have to do with them being wasteful and irresponsible and stealing OUR fucking tax dollars? Either Halliburton was efficient and honest in how they charged us (cause WE are the client), or they weren't. I say they weren't. That's war profiteering and it's fucking TREASON.
BTW, ACORN called the cops on those goofballs. But don't let the facts get in the way of your baseless smears. Beck commands you!

Al Franken is a disgrace to the United States Senate! He is a clown and the people of Minnesota should be ashamed of themselves for letting this clown even having a chance of reaching (what used to be) such an esteemed position. As an avid reader of American history, this just shows how far off base the liberal nuts in this country have really gone. It used to be that the State appointed 2 people to represent them in the Senate, now apparently Hollywood can buy an idiot like this guy a seat!
You clearly are not familiar with Franken's actual work, and are just regurgitating Republican talking points. I don't agree with Franken on everything, but the man is far from a nut. In fact, his views are those of any run-of-the-mill standard progressive. He is also (surprisingly) a huge policy wonk, who actually knows quite a bit about the nitty-gritty details of policy. His seat was also hardly bought, Coleman was not very popular and all Republicans took a beating in 08. So he won. Simple.
maybe you would like to comment to arnold as well? true he is a governer, not a senator, but maybe his being a repuglican is the reason you may stray from saying shit about him. he worked at SNL as a writer. whoop dee fucking doo. how does that show that he is stupid? comment on his positions rather than his past (which is also something very few people come close to accomplishing) you dipshit.

Oh the libtards in this country... Just remember that when your grandchildren (if you end up having any) ask you why America isn't the place that it was in the 1900's, let them know that you (the libtard) was one of the appeasers. You were one of the people that continued to push for and vote for people that sent this country into the brink of destruction. Remeber to let them know that you were one of the loyalist - kinda like the brits in the revolution - that allowed for socialism to take over
The only reason YOU live in a country like you do today is because of progressive liberals! Name ANYTHING, and you can track the development and implementation of that invention to progressive LIBERAL thought. ANYTHING!
You can thank a liberal for..... A 40 hour work week A minimum wage Social Security Safe food Safe products Civil rights for all A balanced Federal budget Regulation of financial markets Clean air and water Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. The G.I. Bill Of Rights Overtime pay
And a few more for ya...... Child labor laws Workers compensation Unemployment insurance Securities & Exchange Commission Medicare/Medicaid Peace Corps A womans right to vote Student grant and loan programs Employer paid medical insurance Employer paid vacations Employer funded pension plans Americans With Disabilities Act Open public national parks
Union member for thirty years...Your list of things progressives fought for (and achieved), for so long, is just TOO LONG to point out in this limited forum...But I sure appreciate you trying...
Reagan and Bush Jr are responsible for the greatest deficits in history, and they made those deficits by taking OUR tax dollars and giving them to the richest 1%. That's a fact. And if there's a "welfare state", it's because corporations took all the jobs that low-education workers could do and sent them to Third World countries. But go ahead, blame the powerless. Shithead. Get your head out of your ass -- if you're going to willingly let the fatcats fuck you, you might as well make room.

Oh, and BTW...Is that ALL you libs have in your playbook? Blame Reagan and Bush? Obama has spent 20x in 10 months more than Bush did in 8 years!
Our contry is bankrupt thanks to fools like Obama and his Kool Aid drinkers like YOU who do nothing but repeat the same mantra over and over again. Go read 1984 by Orwell. That is IF you can read anything above 3rd grade level. I have serious doubts given your political preferences.
"You libs". LOL nice. See, liberals aren't authoritarian thinkers. We don't worship leaders like right-wing authoritarians do. We don't think like a hive mind. We don't adopt talking points and defend our heroes like they're on our favorite football team or something. So "you libs" is meaningless.
Besides, are you so stupid that you haven't noticed that "libs" have been blowing their stacks over Obama's Bush-like secrecy and anti-terror tactics, and have been accusing him of sucking bank cock?
i'll remember what i should but it's astounding you forget so much of what bush did. that's the repuglican asshole you stick up for right? what conservative principle did he follow in his 8 year term? increase the fucking debt astronomically? start a war we are still fucking fighting and paying for? i can shut you down easily you moron and you and your kind have nothing to go on for AT LEAST the next 8 years. just shut the fuck up and enjoy the ride.
He's a good man. He fights for people who hate themselves. Conservatives working for jobs that are already gone. What I'm saying is asshole's who hate paying there due's.

The only reason YOU live in a country like you do today is because of progressive liberals! Name ANYTHING, and you can track the development and implementation of that invention to progressive LIBERAL thought. ANYTHING!

Reagan and Bush Jr are responsible for the greatest deficits in history, and they made those deficits by taking OUR tax dollars and giving them to the richest 1%. That's a fact. And if there's a "welfare state", it's because corporations took all the jobs that low-education workers could do and sent them to Third World countries. But go ahead, blame the powerless. Shithead. Get your head out of your ass -- if you're going to willingly let the fatcats fuck you, you might as well make room.

Nice, spoken like a true Liberal! In fact, I almost feel you channeling Franken-boy!
You both have the same amount of class, which is pretty much close to the mendoza line. Live Big!

This comment has received too many negative votes show
Oh, and BTW...Is that ALL you libs have in your playbook? Blame Reagan and Bush? Obama has spent 20x in 10 months more than Bush did in 8 years!
Our contry is bankrupt thanks to fools like Obama and his Kool Aid drinkers like YOU who do nothing but repeat the same mantra over and over again. Go read 1984 by Orwell. That is IF you can read anything above 3rd grade level. I have serious doubts given your political preferences.

"You libs". LOL nice. See, liberals aren't authoritarian thinkers. We don't worship leaders like right-wing authoritarians do. We don't think like a hive mind. We don't adopt talking points and defend our heroes like they're on our favorite football team or something. So "you libs" is meaningless.
Besides, are you so stupid that you haven't noticed that "libs" have been blowing their stacks over Obama's Bush-like secrecy and anti-terror tactics, and have been accusing him of sucking bank cock?

i'll remember what i should but it's astounding you forget so much of what bush did. that's the repuglican asshole you stick up for right? what conservative principle did he follow in his 8 year term? increase the fucking debt astronomically? start a war we are still fucking fighting and paying for? i can shut you down easily you moron and you and your kind have nothing to go on for AT LEAST the next 8 years. just shut the fuck up and enjoy the ride.
