Seriously. You jest.

But west virginia has some real big shit? Not known to the world at large, I can tell you. Nobody takes the toothless squeal like a piggers seriously.

Franken is doing a pretty good job.

Franken is doing a very good job and gets big props for never going on the Sunday talk shows or pretty much any national news. He's just doing his job for the people of his state. We could do with 99 more Senators with the same principles no matter their politics.

They also note rude behavior during a speech by M McConnell, behavior for which he had the grace to apologize.
If by "good job" you mean keeping his head down and not being a clown, I agree.
