Al Franken
I just can't sit still and meditate that doesn't kind of work for me. I don't even know exactly what it means.
Al Franken
But in the right-wing media, they do have a right-wing bias. And they also have an agenda. So their agenda is: we're an adjunct of the Republican Party, and we're going push that agenda every day, and, as you say, brand these stories that help further the right-wing cause.
Al Franken
Terrorism, to me, is the use of terror for political purpose, and terror is indiscriminate murder of civilians to make a political point.
Al Franken
I believe people have a right to know what's going on with their information and how it's collected, how it's stored and who gets it.
Al Franken
Being a comedian, you're under pressure. You have to deal with stress and pressure to perform - to deal with pressure without stress.
Al Franken
I'm sure I've devoted enough thought to Rush Limbaugh for one lifetime.
Al Franken
I can assure you, this is not about spying on the American people.
