It's sad all the funny SNL people who died but not this un-funny man

Funny Business in Minnesota

In which every dubious ruling seems to help Al Franken.

Strange things keep happening in Minnesota, where the disputed recount in the Senate race between Norm Coleman and Al Franken may be nearing a dubious outcome. Thanks to the machinations of Democratic Secretary of State Mark Ritchie and a meek state Canvassing Board, Mr. Franken may emerge as an illegitimate victor.

Mr. Franken started the recount 215 votes behind Senator Coleman, but he now claims a 225-vote lead and suddenly the man who was insisting on "counting every vote" wants to shut the process down. He's getting help from Mr. Ritchie and his four fellow Canvassing Board members, who have delivered inconsistent rulings and are ignoring glaring problems with the tallies.

Under Minnesota law, election officials are required to make a duplicate ballot if the original is damaged during Election Night counting. Officials are supposed to mark these as "duplicate" and segregate the original ballots. But it appears some officials may have failed to mark ballots as duplicates, which are now being counted in addition to the originals. This helps explain why more than 25 precincts now have more ballots than voters who signed in to vote. By some estimates this double counting has yielded Mr. Franken an additional 80 to 100 votes.

This disenfranchises Minnesotans whose vote counted only once. And one Canvassing Board member, State Supreme Court Justice G. Barry Anderson, has acknowledged that "very likely there was a double counting." Yet the board insists that it lacks the authority to question local officials and it is merely adding the inflated numbers to the totals.

Sweet baby Jesus Minnesota, you are more retarded than Florida. How anyone could have selected Al Franken to represent them in the Senate make as much sense why he was even on SNL. This guy has failure written all over him. At least it's exposing the Democrats as the hypocrites they are. All politicians by definition are hypocrites, not just Dems, but they more than likely tend to think their shit dont stink...and this is a massive turd of a shit!

I didn't vote for 44 but I wish him well, this site is not dedicated to slamming him, just catching the lies and hypocrisy inherent but overlooked by the MSM, I will try to be as fair as I can but Al Franken can DIAF. It's not because he's a Dem, or Liberal, or had a popular book about Rush Limbaugh...it's because he is unfunny.

44 is not funny but that's ok, he's not a comedian.
