Parliament of Dumbasses
The biggest laughs coming out of Al Franken’s senate campaign aren’t coming from the candidate.
Franken is being attacked about “Porn-o-Rama!,” an eight-year old parody he wrote for Playboy about a fictional virtual reality sex research facility. Bestiality and three-ways are part of the studies.
I never read the story, but it can’t be as hilarious as the fake offense Franken’s fellow Minnesotan Rep. Keith Ellison claimed to take.
“I have to ask myself, can I explain it to my 11-year-old daughter? I’d have considerable difficulty,” Ellison told the Associated Press.
Really, Keith? If it ever came to that, I’d think you’d have a tougher time explaining to your little girl’s mother why you left your old Playboys out for the kid to read.

So anyone who writes anything that might not be safe for an 11-year-old to read is unfit for office? Maybe we should take the next step and demand that our entire culture be brought down to the level of Teletubbies.
I think Virginia Democrats did a better job of supporting Jim Webb when his writings were being wildly misrepresented as child porn. Minnesota Democrats need to shape up.
