I’ve never understood why we would want to deny all the joys - and the challenges - of marriage to anyone. Which is why I think any loving, committed couple — gay or straight — should be able to get married.
Al Franken
I think that the default for collecting any kind of personal data should be opt-in consent.
Al Franken
The point is that there is tremendous hypocrisy among the Christian right. And I think that Christian voters should start looking at global warming and extreme poverty as a religious issue that speaks to the culture of life.
Al Franken
We need to be pro-science we have to go back to science.
Al Franken
There is - I mean - I found early in life that righteous indignation is a little off-putting, and so I try to couch it with humor.
