Marty, it's impossible to have any kind of rational discussion with you because you won't discuss. You make an assertion, then if someone questions it, you start heaping abuse on them. That's the mark of someone who has strong opinions, but doesn't have a clue as to where those opinions came from. No thought processes involved, just pure, raw emotional reaction.
By the way, I don't listen to Al Franken. I find political commentators, even ones who share my viewpoint, to be a pretty much a waste of time. I already have a good idea of what they're going to say. I don't need them to tell me what to think. I'd rather concentrate on factual information, then form my own opinion.
As far as not having a life is concerned, I'll be away from the computer for the rest of the day. I have guitar students coming this afternoon. And what will you be doing, little man, other than sitting there at you computer trying to think up something nasty to say?
And as far as "psychobabble" is concerned, that's your department. You're psycho and about all you do is babble.
