The Left Explodes

Al Franken flipped out at the RNC Convention tonight.

Powerline - Last night at around 8 p.m., Al Franken, who is here on behalf of Air America, got into a shoving match with Laura Ingraham's producer. The two men argued about whether Franken had agreed to go on Laura's show and then reneged. The producer started to walk away, but Franken chased him, yelling insults, and the altercation followed.

Guard Tackled... Developing..." UPDATE WITHIN AN UPDATE: Here's what Indymedia says: "Reportedly a man wearing an Abu Graib - style hood broke through barricades, busting in on an MSNBC live session." UPDATE WITHIN AN UPDATE: Drudge adds: "Bush/Cheney supporters gathered near show set at Harold Square pushed and spat on by protesters, fake blood thrown while Matthews remained on air..."


Click through to Allah. Honestly, he's doing a better job of blogging the convention from home than most of the bloggers actually attending the convention, though I have to admit that Kevin's coverage has been excellent so far. He also had the scoop on the Franken story and move exclusive pics.
