He could've done this when he actually lost, but as it stands he lost both the race and his dignity.

I've enjoyed Franken's books and commentary. The Harvard-educated comedian seems to have a firm grasp on the issues, and I am excited to see him put that knowledge to use in the Senate.

"Even as it stands, the Home Guard could only exist in a country where men feel themselves free. The totalitarian states can do great things, but there is one thing they cannot do: they cannot give the factory-worker a rifle and tell him to take it home and keep it in his bedroom. That rifle hanging on the wall of the working-class flat or labourer's cottage is the symbol of democracy. It is our job to see that it stays there."
-George Orwell

"Police, at all times, should maintain a relationship with the public that gives reality to the historic tradition that the police are the public and the public are the police; the police being only members of the public who are paid to give full-time attention to duties which are incumbent upon every citizen in the interests of community welfare and existence."
-Sir Robert Peel

I always wanna laugh at anyone who supports the notion that a majority of their party is what's best for the nation.

I know what you mean. While I'm glad there's a Democrat president, them controlling both houses as well has brought us the Stimulus, Auto Industry Takeovers and now Cap and Trade.
We're only seven months past the election.
Scary.
