Or at least his spokeswoman is.

It seems that some satire he had written some time ago when he still thought he was funny has surfaced and (gasp) it involves sex.

In the column, titled “Porn-O-Rama!” and clearly intended to be humorous, Franken describes visiting a fictional sex institute where he participates in sex acts with machines and humans.

Franken writes of sitting in a virtual sex machine and choosing his preferred setting, then describes and evaluates the act. Later, he investigates other parts of the fictional institute and participates in other sexual acts that he describes.

There are absurdities coming from both sides concerning this buffoon’s past attempt at humor: A letter is being circulated by the Minnesota Republican Party saying that GOP women are demanding that he apologize for the piece. Come on, people.

Two things: The man’s an idiot and it was satire from the start. Lame satire, but satire nonetheless. It’s what he got paid to do (God help us) at the time, so he did it. Point at it and laugh (not at the satire, but at the imbecile behind it) but don’t go all drama queen over it. Did you expect Plato from the guy?

And here’s the absurdity coming from the Al Franken side of the fence:

On Thursday, Franken spokeswoman Jess McIntosh said: “Al had a long career as a satirist. But he understands the difference between what you say as a satirist and what you do as a senator. And as a senator, Norm Coleman has disrespected the people of Minnesota by putting the Exxons and Halliburtons ahead of working families. And there’s nothing funny about that.”

Wait….Norm Coleman did what? Figure that one out if you can.

Anyway, the only thing funny about Al Franken, the foamy mouthed expletive spewing author of such notable works as “Rush Limbaugh Is A Big Fat Idiot” is the fact that he wants people to take him seriously enough now to make him a Senator.

Oh….and the fact that despite his tax-em-all attitude and that of his compadres on the left he didn’t pay his taxes and owes a whopping stack of cash to Uncle Sam.

Now THAT’S funny!
