Has anyone heard from Al Franken??????

[CatWoman]

Has he weighed in on this situation yet?

1. He's a private citizen. Why should he?

I expect he will at some point, though.

2. why wouldn't he?

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

3. He probably will.

4. Yes, so he can be vilified some more

He was falsely accused and hounded out of office. If I were Mr Franken, I'd be in Tahiti, enjoying a well-deserved retirement. Minnesota and this fucked-up country don't deserve him.

5. He has pretty active Facebook and Twitter accounts, so

he probably will comment at some point.

[Glorfindel]

6. I know. He's a much better person than I am.

7. It is in Al's character to be with the protesters
