 Franken on How to Combat ‘Limousine Democrat’ Stereotype: ‘We’ve Got to Stop Riding in Limousines’
Posted By Conor Beck On June 26, 2017 @ 12:13 pm In Politics | No Comments

"We've got to stop riding in limousines," Sen. Al Franken (D., Minn.) said Monday on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" when asked how the Democratic Party could change the stereotype of "limousine Democrats."

Like a typical Dem, he refuses to do any introspection whatsoever about the left. Instead -- and this is the leftist talking points formula as sure as day follows night -- he dodges the question asked and answers the question he wishes were asked. He's probably under the illusion that his flippant reply to the actual question absolves him from his failure to answer. After all, it got him some chuckles which is music to his ears.

It's okay that they behave this way. They'll never figure out why they're spiraling downward. Now, if the Republicans can just take advantage of this Democrat weakness and work toward constitutionally sound legislation, we can gain some momentum. To the degree they engage in swamp behavior is the degree to which they weaken the structure of the party. Then they risk the possibility that many of us will never return.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Oh, heavens, NO!

What if the Russians really hacked the election (just for laughs) and they won?

You tell 'em Al.

They're all waiting with baited breath for your next McNugget of wisdom to drop.
My 'Viking Hunter' High Adventure Alternate History Series is FREE, ALL 3 volumes, at most ebook retailers including Ibooks, Barnes and Noble, Kobo, and more.

In Vol 2 the weapons come out in a winner take all war on two fronts.

Vol 3 opens with the rigged murder trial of the villain in a Viking Court under Viking law to set the stage for the hero's own murder trial.

I just wanna see the Franken/Stein campaign adds.  Might qualify as actually honest advertising.
