		Franken is considering a run for the late Minnesota Senator Paul Wellstone's seat, replacing ineffective Norm Coleman.

	Amazon.com: Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them: A Fair and Balanced Look at the Right: Books: Al Franken (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Franken occupies a unique place in the modern political dialogue as perhaps the media's only comedy writer and performer who is also a Harvard fellow as well as a liberal political commentator.
		Franken carefully, truthfully, and hilariously exposes the lies of the nut jobs, nitwits and nincompoops who have the American public in their thrall.
		Franken ably and amply demonstrates the basic tenet of so many media figures on the right: create an obnoxious lie about your enemy, then repeat and repeat and repeat -- especially in the face of disproof -- until the mainstream media is forced to report on the "story".

		Franken entertained the crowd when he seemingly couldn't wrap his mind around the concept of green chile, though this is not his first trip to Albuquerque (He previously made an apperance on his book signing tour, promoting "Lies, and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them: A Fair and Balanced Look at the Right").
		Beard became a fan of Franken because of the show and his book "Lies," but she also remembered him from his days on Saturday Night Live playing Stuart Smalley, a host of political figures, and the odd bit part.
		His jetlag showed during the post-event interview as he yawned repeatedly (he had broadcast from Los Angeles and Austin in the two days prior to the Albuquerque show).

	Fans of Al Franken's radio show welcome him to the left side of country
		For many liberals, before The Al Franken Show and Air America, radio was an alien landscape lacking their point of view.
		Franken and co-host Katherine Lanpher also did several recurring bits, including the "Oy, Oy, Oy" show, in which "Old Al," a New York Jew, laments the state of current affairs; staged radio skits on John Bolton, the president's mercurial nominee for U.N. ambassador; and sound bites from Bill O'Reilly's show.
		After one clip in which O'Reilly denigrates liberals for their lack of values, Franken shot back: "I didn't know that phone sex was a traditional value," referring to O'Reilly's alleged racy chats with a former member of his staff.

		Recorded live in the Air America studios, "The Al Franken Show" is a one hour version of the spicy-hot radio program from the former "SNL" writer turned political attack dog.
		I like the fact that Franken is able to get such well-known people on his show; it made listening to the interviews a lot of fun.

		This note is for Al, regarding today's show and specifically his discussion on extraordinary rendition practices.
		Al's point that promoting freedom through practices such as these is well taken, but the question should go further: why is the mainstream media choosing not to publicize well-documented stories that are extensively publicized and choose instead to devote hours and hours to the Runaway Bride??
		AAR shows will almost certainly be a part of this deal, and my feeling is that AAR wanted to position themselves with the company that had more "new media" outlets.

		FRANKEN: OK. Ah, let's talk about the FBI files that you talk about, sort of what was called "Filegate." And you call it the "Purloined FBI Files," and you write about it on page 39.
		Franken did a great job of slamming Klien into the dirt and after I listened to it I realized he was actually pretty polite to Klein.

		No word yet whether the show will be a permanent fixture on Robert Redford's cable channel known mostly for airing indie flicks, or if the show will only run through the presidential election in November.
		While Air America Radio, the liberal radio network Franken's radio show airs daily on in 17 markets nationwide, has been hit with lackluster ratings and financial hardships since its launch earlier this year, there are reasons to think that Franken's show might be a winner.

		Franken's argument, expressed with his usual bombastic flair, was that privatization is unnecessary and harmful.
		The show was called "Good Ribbin'," and stemmed from Markus' realization that people who like barbecue tend to hate Franken.
