1. I'm so glad I supported him
and he won......

He impresses me so far. He's a fellow wrestler like the late assassinated Sen. Paul Wellstone. I think Al will become a 'great' Senator.



I even have a personally signed book by Al
at California Democratic event which helped his campaign...

2. I don't understand how the money isn't connected to the people who paid in. Who is walking away

with these people's retirement funds, and why would that be
connected to a business and its activity? 
Those funds are supposed to be protected and put away safe
from the business so that the people paying in can track their

savings and make their plans.  What kind of system do we have
that allows this kind of theft to occur?

I am so glad I did not invest in any pension funds.  And I am
so sorry for people who did because I remember when
my former husband set up one for his company there was such a
formal process that present the view and charged the fees
to guarantee that these funds were safe.  Who are the
fuckheads that are benefitting from these funds?  Who has
ownership
of these savings accounts.  And why are they not insured?

3. Yes, I met him also and told him I find someone who has both intelligence
and great sense of humor are very attractive.  I should have
added "and a great humanitarian."
Love ya, Al.

4. Al Franken, who I was not so hot about, is turning into a fine Senator.
