In a visit to the StarTribune editorial board, Senator Al Franken states that the rhetoric needs to be tamped down.
This is coming from a man that did nothing in his non-comedic life other than spew hate filled rhetoric. This is coming from a man that used his (and others) abject and primal hatred of George Bush as the primary, and nearly exclusive, means to get elected. This is coming from the author of such conciliatory and bridge-building works such as Rush Limbaugh is a Big Fat Idiot.
Sorry, Al. Your entire radio and political career has been built on spewing hatred about your opponents. It is the only reason you achieved the rank of Senator! To encourage the discourse to tone down now smacks of insincerity, hollowness, opportunism, and hypocrisy.
