Senate Judiciary Appointee

A good example of how this country is in one heck of a, oh, how do you say it, a pickle? Al Franken has been appointed to the Senate Judiciary Committee as a supporter of Sonia Sotomayor. One thing in Frankens' favor; he's not a liar--oops! I meant lawyer. He is a comedian so one would say, being in the Senate, he's in great company.
