What a joke this thing is! There's absolutely nothing they could have done to give Franken better press and give him more book sales. What a bunch of turkeys! The unfortunate thing is that the book probably won't be nearly as funny as Bill's temper tantrum. How do you ridicule something that's already a parody of itself? -- //-Walt // // "Fair and Balanced" |

I've never seen Franken, so I have no idea whether he's funny or not. But I do know that this lawsuit is funny - it's the funniest thing I've seen in a long time! I hope Fox goes through with it, I could use the entertainment. But I bet that spoilsport judge will throw it out without letting it go to trial. Dave |

I've never seen Franken, so I have no idea whether he's funny or not. He can be, but I don't think anybody would include him on the A-list of America's Funniest Commedians. I remember a few genuinely funny bits from his SNL days, and some boring unfunny go-nowhere routines. His main role on SNL was as a writer, not as a performer so it's tough to really gauge his contribution. But I do know that this lawsuit is funny - it's the funniest thing I've seen in a long time! I hope Fox goes through with it, I could use the entertainment. But I bet that spoilsport judge will throw it out without letting it go to trial. Want some more comedy? Here's paragraph 77 of the complaint in it's entirety: 77. Franken has recently been described as a "C-level political commentator" who is "increasingly unfunny." Franken has physically accosted Fox News personalities in the past, and was reported to have appeared either intoxicated or deranged as he flew into a rage near a table of Fox News personalities at a press correspondents' dinner in April 2003. Franken is neither a journalist nor a television personality. He is not a well-respected voice in American politics; rather, he appears to be shrill and unstable. His views lack any serious depth or insight. Franken is commonly perceived as having to trade off of the name recognition of others in order to make money. One commentator has referred to Franken as a "parasite" for attempting to trade off of Fox News' brand and O'Reilly's fame in the Preliminary Cover of his book. So who was the comentator who said Franken was a "parasite", "increasingly unfunny" and a "C-level political commentator"? Well, none other than CK Rairden, a columnist for "The Platte Country Landmark" in Missouri. Who obviously knows a C-level policital commentator when he sees one. LOL! That's the best they can do? -- //-Walt // // "Fair and Balanced C-Level Political Comentator" |

I'll bet that they have a top notch legal department that will research this and determine whether or not it is worth perusing. But what are you going to do when/if FNC wins? Whine about the judge being paid off? It seems clear to me that franken is trying to imply endorsement from FNC. It's another example of the left manipulating standards of behavior used during their failed 40 years in power. Like the house members in Texas leaving the state because they are now in the minority and can't vote their agenda into practice anymore. Or the Senate demo's changing the number needed to approve a judge from 51 (simple majority) to 60 (the number needed to defeat their philibuster). |

[Franken] was stewart smalley wasn't he? I never saw one of those that was funny. I don't remeber him ever being funny. The SS routine was embarrassing. Not that he was awful but that there were probably real people just like that. Chris Farley's guy who lived in a van down by the river was way funnier, but probably just as real. -- Cheers, Bev ******************************************* "I've learned that you can keep puking long after you think you're finished." -- SL |
