Members zachoff Posted June 30, 2009 Members Share Posted June 30, 2009 I like Franken even though he's the Dem equivalent to Limbaugh (albeit way way funnier, less douchey, and more intelligent)... He'll definitely be a welcome addition to a partisan congress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members JeffBass Posted June 30, 2009 Members Share Posted June 30, 2009 Franken sucks. Obviously the Obama Acorn Mafia got to Coleman. They either paid him off or threatened him someway. What a ripoff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a ripoff. actually it was the Supreme Court " Republican Norm Coleman conceded to Democrat Al Franken in Minnesota's contested Senate race on Tuesday, hours after a unanimous state Supreme Court ruled the former "Saturday Night Live" comedian should be certified the winner" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members JeffBass Posted June 30, 2009 Members Share Posted June 30, 2009 It was a STATE court who demanded the COLEMAN prove what was basically un-provable. Outright thievery.

Members Thumper Posted June 30, 2009 Members Share Posted June 30, 2009 It was a STATE court who demanded the COLEMAN prove what was basically un-provable. Outright thievery. Franken pulled off what Gore TRIED to pull off, steal an election through selective recounts and bogus standards. As a rule, state elections are supervised by their respective state governments. The Minnesota Supreme Court supervised the Coleman/Franken race. The Florida Supreme Court likewise supervised the Bush/Gore race in 2000. So, you're upset because the Federal government is for once acknowledging states' rights? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right to be worried. Yes that would make total sense because Carvin is a very successful company in the PRIVATE SECTOR, which means they must be an "Evil Corporation" be to taxed into oblivion, saddled with unions and capped and traded.

Members Chip Stewart Posted July 1, 2009 Members Share Posted July 1, 2009 I know it's not the way the system works, but I disagree that it's for good reason anymore. It still is for good reason. If the popular vote determined the presidency, it would significantly decrease the influence of the smaller states. California, New York, Illinois, Texas, and Florida would basically decide who becomes president. That's not a scenario I would be comfortable with.
