[BootinUp]

2. Fund: Thank you Al....

Oh, Your Welcome. (Big huge smile)


:rofl:

[BootinUp]

3. Republican Congress only met 69 days

Al saying

There is a lot of work to be done.

4. Fund: The Republicans ignored oversight because they were a "family friendly congress." LOL

He actually defended them for ignoring problems because they wanted to only work 3 days a week so they could spend more time with their families.

OMG! What a tool!

[AnnInLa]

13. He did NOT say that?????

This should be priority #1 with Pelosi and gang....and publicize it to the skies.....Congress will now be in session 5 freakin' days a week. If we hav to do it, so can they.

Family friendly....don't get me started.

16. Here is a link for the video....

It's a few minutes in. Fund starts off by saying "Look, the Republicans had a legitimate problem, they did not do the oversight that congress should do because they only had a three day work week (or words very close to that)" and when he gets backed into a corner by Tweety and Al, he actually sounds like he is defending the Republican's "family friendly" work week. LOL You be the judge.

:)

[blm]

14. and with their mistresses, and with the pages, and with their lobbyist paymasters

15. Schedule: S-S: family, M-W: work, T-F: PARTY DOWN, DUDES!!!

:rofl: :rofl:

[alfredo]

5. So good. Al sliced and diced.

[Gregorian]

6. Thank you! This was good

Al already comes across as a Senator, for what that is worth.

He's hard to beat. I think his years of going through the hoops of acting help him a lot.

[Glenda]

7. Al doesn't take things personally...

But he knows just what buttons to push, to get the other guy to take things personally

This was funny !

:spray:

[XOKCowboy]

8. Al's The Man...

I've been a fan since Franken and Davis on SNL. Does anyone remember the skit he did during the "Al Franken Year" where he came out in favor of the draft? Because he was now making a lot of money and needed all of the 18 yr olds to join the military to protect him and his assets? It was one of the funniest pieces of satire I've ever seen. It's a wonder someone doesn't dig that up and try to use it against him.

[Sugarcoated]

9. I can't wait to see him run against Normie

He's gonna make mincemeat outta him and I'm going to laugh and laugh and laugh.

[Adelante]

10. That's a controversial opinion

;)

[BootinUp]

11. When I start threads

they are rarely controversial. :hi:

[Beelzebud]

12. Ugh... Phone rang and i missed it AGAIN.

And after suffering through the first part of the show...

Hopefully someone will get a clip of this on youtube, or crooks and liars soon...
