Senate Halts GOP Bid To Repeal 'Net Neutrality' Rules

[Scuba]

1. This overly complicated, manipulativly worded issue is more important...

.... than we give it credit for being.


Thank you Al Franken.

And thank you lamp-shade for the post.

[hifiguy]

2. Once again, I am very proud of my Senator.

Thank you, Senator Franken!! :patriot:

About marriage being between a man and a woman for the purpose of raising children.

Thanks for the thread, lamp_shade.:thumbsup:

[OnlinePoker]

7. A Strong Choice for 2016.

A man of conviction and integrity...something sadly lacking in DC.

[Mister Ed]

8. Have I mentioned how much I love this guy?

I might get the chance to tell him so in person next week. If I do, I'll tell him y'all love him too.

[jwirr]

14. Please do there are many of us up here in NE MN who cannot make

it to the dinner in the cities.

[annabanana]

22. Oh YES! Let him know he has a solid fan base around here. . .n/t

[gateley]

33. Yes! From sea to shining sea!! nt

[Kaleko]

25. Tell Franken that even people in foreign contries

point to him as a notable exception when they talk about the corruption of American politicians.

[kag]

26. Tell him CO loves him, too. n/t

[JNelson6563]

11. I'm glad he's a Senator but,

..I still miss the Oy Oy Oy Show, and Wait, Wait, Don't Lie To Me. I also miss his singing on the radio. It was AWFUL good. Thanks Senator Franken! Thanks for the post lamp_shade. :toast:

:rofl: :yourock:

[frebrd]

12. I'm increasingly glad for.........

every penny I sent him during his seemingly endless election to the senate! :)

[geardaddy]

16. K and R

for our wonderful senator!

[Modern_Matthew]

17. Not joining this circle jerk until he stops supporting shit like COICA. nt

[Beartracks]

27. Weirdness.

Franken supported COICA last year? And PIPA this year? Even the Tea Party has come put saying that such a bill is "bad for consumers".

[nadinbrzezinski]

18. Good

[freshwest]

19. Get emails from him about the importance of the 4 seat majority, asking for help.

He's one of the progressives that had to wait half a year or more to get his senate seat which hurt the vote. We gotta keep him and others like him in office.

Thank you, Senator Franken!

:loveya:

[stevedeshazer]

20. Why did Al vote to continue the Bush tax cuts?

I mean, good on him for the net neutrality thing, but seriously, I really want an answer from him about that vote.

[anamandujano]

24. Add to that, why did he say Bush won fair and square against Kerry?

Some things are unforgivable.

[gateley]

35. Maybe that's what he believes? Maybe he's just wrong. I don't

think he'd say that if he didn't believe it -- do you?

[gateley]

34. Call his office and ask them. I'm sure you're not the only

one who wonders about it so they may have the explanation ready to go. If you do, come back and let us know, okay?

I'm just guessing he did it to stand with the Dems. Sucks, but that's the reality of DC. :(

[edbermac]

21. "He's good enough, he's smart enough, and doggone it, people like him!"

[Matariki]

23. !!!!!!!!!!

:applause:

[The Wielding Truth]

28. Good on you. Al Franken! You are a true representative of the people.

[janet118]

29. Love Al - wish we could fill the senate with his clones n/t

[frazzled]

30. And thanks to President Obama, who explicitly promised he would veto it

That tends to get Democrats together.

[GreenTea]

31. Cheers from this Californian to the great Senator from Minnesota Al Franken!
