Senator Al Franken draws a map of all 50 states from memory during an appearance on Minnesota Public Radio’s Midday at the Minnesota State Fair. I’m not sure what prompted this but it’s pretty impressive:
Via Jason Kottke, who dubs it “one of the best hand-drawn maps I’ve seen.”
“Was he giving interesting tidbits on each state as he drew it?”
It was done during Minnesota Public Radio Day at the Minnesota State Fair for a daily news and special interest program. He was talking about the importance of education while drawing it, and taking questions from the audience. If you go to the MPR web site and go to archived “Midday” shows you can listen to it.
He actually was a rather thoughtful and better read on the Congressional Heath Care Bill than most Congressmen and said there were problems with it.
He also held many Town hall Meetings and understands now where many of those that oppose the bill are coming from. That there is disinformation from BOTH sides.
He’s still a Liberal, but… not a sarcastic frothing at the mouth one.
I’m not sure what prompted this but it’s pretty impressive:
Big deal. The only reason he can do this is that he spent his entire life as a freeloading liberal without a real job.
When you are a son of privilege you can spend all of your time honing irrelevant skills, sipping latees, eating arugula, and drinking chardonnay on Martha’s Vineyard.
This just shows what a phony Franken really is.
