Al Franken kidding? Jenna & Barb joined Armed Forces?

He sounded like he was serious that Jenna and Barb are joining the armed forces.

Then spend their time hiding out. I have heard rumors on the internets that it has happened before.

6. Franken DOES have a gift for deadpan. It's a favorite of his.

Most of his books include at least one chapter where he comlpetely fabircates a story, and then takes it way, way too far, so you begin to doubt whether it's fabricated or not. He finds this highly amusing (such as the chapter where he said he was legally forced to allow his researcher to editorialize, because said researcher had won a court case against him due to his horrid working conditions).

7. It's possible, isn't it?

What a publicity stunt if this is true!

Shrub's daughters, aka two hot chicks, joining the Marines are guaranteed cushy desk jobs and lots of aimless PR work for The Cause, with the end result being an increase in recruitments across the board.

It could also help to lessen the sting of the impending draft.

What a horribly genius idea. I'm believing in it too much, despite its ludicrousness.

I need some coffee.
