Dear Dan W. Bush,

You fill the tubes with a lot of colossally stupid ideas, but I have to give you a gold star for your newfound level of excellence in stupidity. If Al was a right winger, you'd attacking the idea faster than Billy Dee Williams on a chunky strawberry blonde carrying a case of Colt 45.

Maybe I'm dumb and gullible, but I thought that Al had a lot of good points in this clip.

The best part was the Miley Cyrus song playing at the beginning. "It's a party in the U.S.A. yeaaaaaaah"

I agree, Al Franken should be president!

That was hardly an angry crowd - they listened to what he said, and thought about it. Contrast that with the birthers screaming at city hall meetings!

They didn't seem angry at all but Al did a great job of talking to them regardless.
