Republicans smear Al Franken with faked quote, faked photo

There are a lot of people who hate him, but I am a big fan of Al Franken. I’ve read his books, and they’re hillarious. He’s a good, honest guy- and a great progressive Democrat. He recently answered a question of mine on his video podcast. And I truly hope that he’ll run for Senate in his homestate of Minnesota in 2008.

So I really hate it when Republicans bash him, fabricate quotes that he never said, and doctor photos to make it look like he’s wearing a diaper and hugging a stuffed animal with rabit ears on his head. More on that here.

Update: Al reacts on his radio program today. Listen here (MP3).
