From an email sent out by the Franken campaign ...
From: Al Franken <aj@alfranken.com> Date: Fri, 14 Nov 2008 18:45:34 Subject: As our recount starts, join me, Al Gore and George Soros, for dinner Thursday, Nov. 20th, NYC!
Friends,
We've all worked hard to win back Paul Wellstone's Senate seat in Minnesota. As the dust settles on a long, exciting campaign, my race is still too close to call. Out of 3 million ballots, the gap between Norm Coleman and me sits at just 206 votes -- that's seven one-thousandths of one percent!
With a margin that small, we're headed towards an automatic statewide hand recount of every ballot in every county starting next week. And because the decision in this race could come down to just a few votes, we are placing staff in each county to make sure every single vote is properly counted.
We need every resource we can muster to ensure that Minnesotans' voices are heard.
I need your help right away. If you have already maxed to my campaign or are federally maxed this cycle, you can still contribute legally to the Franken Recount Fund--anyone can give up to $12,300 to our recount effort and the election cycle limits don't apply.
I will be in New York City on Thursday, November 20th for a special reception and dinner with Vice President Al Gore at the home of George Soros. I hope you will join me at the event. If you can't make it, I hope you will contribute as much as you possibly can to help ensure a fair recount.
Thank you--I need your help now more than ever! Contribute at www.AlFranken.com/NYC or see invite below for more details.
See you there!

Or should we say 'cast' after the election to help Franken get over the top.
Remember, it only matters who counts the votes...and all the officials are Democrats. |

Al Franken, lapdog to the plutocrats. |

That's the funniest one liner Franken has ever uttered.
What are we Minnesotan's to make of Al's retreat to New York and a soiree with Algore and George Soros? I thought he only cared about us poor miserable working stiffs out here in flyover land.
What happened to the iron ore dust on Al's steel toed boots? Or the taconite pellets in the cuffs of his Armani dress slacks? Or the dust clinging to the silken hairs in his nostrils, kicked up by the soybean harvester in Lyon County?
Al, have you abandoned your populist roots? |

Al Franken tied to George Soros, the man who wants to manipulate America....... Franken, as one Senator alone, would not be that important to Soros..... But with the possibility of 60 Senate seats under Democratic control, Soros sees Franken's election as one key to that..... Soros is also almost certainly active, behind the scenes, in the recount in Alaska and the runoff election upcoming in Georgia on Dec 2nd..... Soros wants legalized drugs, prostitution and gay marriage across the board....... This man was involved in an unethical scheme in the UK in 1992...... The UK govt, attempting to contain inflation, raised the interest rate...... Soros, a financial speculator, used his influence as a large factor in the UK financial markets' crash on September 16, 1992, known as Black Wednesday in the UK....... It is estimated that Soros made over 1 billion dollars that day......... Do you want this man having influence over our markets and our govt.???????? If he helps the Democrats reach those magical "fillibuster-proof 60 Senate seats", you can bet our govt. will be beholding to him.... If that happens, God help us all!!!!

Soros is so focused on defeating Bush and the Republicans that he has blinded himself to what he is building through his support of the opposition who have goals of their own. At the same time as it motivates action to inflict wounds on its target, hate poisons the hater and makes him willfully blind to his own destructiveness. One wonders what he will do when his creation exceeds his control.
Soros should spend a little less time among Bush-haters and a little more time alone in the wilderness where thought can be clarified and intention made good.
Shakespeare would have a wealth of creative material with this man's blindnesses. |

I understand why conservatives don't like Al Franken, but why do they support Norm Coleman being a US Senator. This man is corrupt by all accounts and is a disgrace to the US Senate.
Is the plan to win the seat for the GOP and throw Coleman out?

George Soros has MORE money and MORE influence than any of those other guys you named......
Have never seen where Keating, Moon, Abramoff wanted legalized drugs , prostitution, and gay marriages.....
Don't believe any of those guys ever contributed to a country's financial market crash either....
Soros is a cancer to consevatism and democracy... |

give you an opportunity to redeem yourself.
"This man is corrupt by all accounts and is a disgrace to the US Senate."
Give us the proof that what you say is true.
BTW, why would even a liberal vote for Franken?
"I'm a very indecisive person. I'd be a terrible politician." (Sylvia Rubin, "A Franken Honest Discussion," San Francisco Chronicle, January 18, 1999)
"It might be crazy. I might not be the best candidate." (Matt McKinney; Rob Hotakainen; Kevin Diaz, "Al Franken vs. Coleman? Comedian Ponders Idea," Star Tribune, November 11, 2003)
"I'm interested in politics for all the wrong reasons -- I'm interested in the sport, the entertainment value of it." (Jim Ragsdale, "Franken Out To Harpoon Rush For Fun, Profit," Pioneer Press, February 22, 1996)
"I'm not concerned about politics for the good reasons," and "I'm interested for the bad reasons. I'm interested for the horse race. It's fun to watch these people savage each other and lie." (Anna Deavere Smith, "Cultural View; Inside The Political Mimic's Fun-House Mirror," The New York Times, August 16, 1992)
Asked why people shouldn't elect him: "I'd be terrible. I'm an indecisive person and I internalize a lot of stress. It's one thing to worry if a joke's funny and is this a good career move? But the idea of deciding which school gets funded and do you bomb Kosovo? . . . I'd be crushed." (Paul Duchene, "The Joke Stops Here: What If Al Franken Were President?" The Oregonian, February 22, 1999)
"If I put myself on the ballot and even 50 people voted for me it'd be a travesty." (Paul Duchene, "The Joke Stops Here: What If Al Franken Were President?" The Oregonian, February 22, 1999) |

"Norm Coleman is corrupt by all accounts"....
if it's "by all accounts" then it should not be difficult for you to provide some facts to back up your assertion......
PROOF PLEASE!!!! |

Soros a problem? Please explain, if you will."
The object of our interest is Mark Ritchie, Minnesota Secretary of State and his ties to George Soros. The degree of separation is unknown but we do know that Soros and Algore are holding a soiree in New York for Franken who is a Democract along with Ritchie.
"The referee in Minnesota's hotly contested Senate race must act in a nonpartisan fashion, yet Ritchie came to office through a nationwide partisan strategy. He was elected in 2006 as part of a national campaign to ensure that Democrats could wield influence in precisely the sort of hair's breadth race we now have here."
"Ritchie gained office with the help of the Secretary of State Project (SOS), an independent 527 group co-founded by former MoveOn.org leader James Rucker. SOS is based in San Francisco, and is funded in part by ultra-liberal kingmakers such as George Soros."
"In 2006, USA Today gave us the answer in an article headlined "Top vote counter becomes prize job; Democrats focus on key state post."
"Secretary of state positions are a "new front" in the "battle for political control," the paper explained, because they are "the obscure but vital state offices that determine who votes and how those votes are counted."
"National Democratic groups ... are pouring resources" into secretary of state races in key swing states, in order to enhance their control in future tight elections, said the paper. Minnesota was one of the top six states targeted."
"Ritchie was the SOS poster boy, and SOS co-founder Becky Bond took credit for his victory." ~Minneapolis StarTribune, November 13, 2008. |
