Right on, Franken!! Calls for Brit Hume to resign...
Edited on Wed Feb-09-05 08:27 PM by ailsagirl
Hey, Al's kicking some ass!!

On the February 9 edition of Air America Radio's The Al Franken Show, Franken called on FOX News Washington managing editor Brit Hume to resign for falsely claiming that former President Franklin Delano Roosevelt expressed support for Social Security privatization.

1. I've written my letter demanding his resignation
Everyone needs to do their part. It doesn't have to be a long letter either.

Get those letters out. Hume is media bile and should be fired.
