"Experience should teach us to be most on our guard to protect liberty when the government's purposes are beneficial. Men born to freedom are naturally alert to repel invasion of their liberty by evil-minded rulers. The greater dangers to liberty lurk in insidious encroachment by men of zeal, well-meaning but without understanding." - Louis Brandeis
Al Franken was a poor excuse for a comedian when he worked the bars and clubs - then ended up on SNL. I think his performance as a US Senator is on par with his comedic career. Minnesota also elected Jesse Ventura to be governor. They have this thing about having bad actors represent them...and I don't know where it comes from.
I met Ventura once when he was Jim Janos and was on his way out of the US Navy, UDT 11 (boasting of his dreams of becoming an actor). I remember him because he was a funny guy, and that's about it. I never considered him to be governor material, and it turns out that I was right.
I have no interest in meeting Franken, however if you cross paths with him, tell him that you have a friend that thinks that he sucks.
