Kilmeade replied that Franken is "so angry, and he's so off his axis - the people of Minnesota should have a four year cooling off period before they elect somebody again."

      There you go - the epitome of positive thinking.

      Wallace believes that their creatively-vacant minds will fill with insightful quips if only Franken gets promoted from Senator to President.

      The Fox News comedy writers are chomping at the bit to get started...

        Has a Foxite ever made a quip that wasn't insulting or mean-spirited?

      They think Franken is crazy? Have these people ever heard Michelle Bachmann talk about anything? She's a lunatic that will willingly drive her constituents to violating the law to score political points. And what about Coleman? He ran around blowing his horn about how unfair a state mandated recount was because it didn't fall in his favor. He was on TV and radio regularly. He even had an entire network (Fox) cheering him on and smearing Franken as if he stole the election. But I guess they have to go on some kind of war path against Franken since he did make the network look stupid in court. "Fair and Balanced".

      Franken graduated summa cum laude from Harvard College with a BA in political science and math. Bush graduated from Yale and Harvard Business school with degrees that daddy bought for him. Bush then proceeded to work in the family business and took his family money to buy the Rangers. Anything Bush got was through his family's influence. On the other hand, Franken became a comedy write and performer on his own talents. Franken did not get the millions of dollars and influence to become a senator. Bush became governor and president by his family influence and money. And Wallace wants to make fun of a President Franken?

      This is all coming from a guy who has "no idea about what kind of person (Franken) is, but from what (Kilmeade) can tell, he's just an evil partisan guy."

      You know so much, Brain Kilmeade (no typo), yet you know so little.

      "how good would the material be for us?"

      these are the same people that supported a clown of a president in george bush, and never made fun of him. so now they think they can get material on franken? he is a harvard graduate in math, of all things, and just because he used to be a funny entertainment guy, they think they have material on him. why couldnt they ever find material on bush? he could barely even read, let alone speak, yet, they didnt have the balls to say something... probably because he was signing their paychecks.

      I agree President Franken would give professonal comedians tons of material.

      The part I dont get is how they decided that Franken was angry.
      I saaw his acceptance speech and I gotta saw the only two things in the election this year classier then that speech was the consession speeches of Colman and McCain.

      If anything the man appears to be the epitamy of calm not angry.
