Got Franken's book at 11PM...was halfway through it by 2:30AM...tired.
...but stoked. What a great read.

Best analogy so far:

"(Conservatives) love America the way a 4-year-old loves her Mommy. Liberals love America like grown-ups. To a 4-year-old, everything Mommy does is wonderful and anyone who criticizes Mommy is bad. Grown-up love means actually understanding what you love, taking the good with the bad, and helping your loved one grow. Love takes attention and work and is the best thing in the world."

Man, that's good...

1. I though that was great too.
Although I also think that conservative's love of America is love for an thing, not love of the people that make up America or even the ideals that created this country.
