What I find puzzling is the new job. Norm has always run as a Christian pro-family candidate, at least since he became a Republican. I heard him speak touchingly when he was mayor of St. Paul on the importance of the Catholic church to St. Paul — the big cathedral on the hill balancing and in a sense completing the state capitol, on a smaller hill nearby.

Nah he just can’t figure out any other thing to say. seems to me that all those Boosh Tax cuts didn’t work to save the economy so would more tax cuts help? Boner & the republicans are just a bunch of Dumb fucks with tired old worthless economic “Theories” of Uncle Milti Friedman. Those “Theories” proved to be worthless in South America, Poland, Russia and many other countries who were forced to under go the “Shock Doctrine”.

Boehner goes on record sayin that the only thing that will work to save the nation is more tax cuts—lettin the people keep their money-etc.

He’s in a fuckin time warp!

This whole business has never been about seating Coleman…they saw the handwriting on that wall November 4.

It has always been about a p.r. campaign to deny Democrats the seat…and to set up a convenient fundraising target for 2010 just as soon as Franken is sworn in.

Well, maybe he’s just moonlighting. Probably as a Senator he has a lot of free time.

Why doesn’t Harry Reid provisionally seat Al Franken like the Democrats did with Mary Landrieu? I think perhaps Harry Reid is not eager to face the Wrath of Al.

The group is hoping that Coleman can tap into his supporters and raise enough money that they can afford to pay him
