Yes we can.

Great speech he gave. "We have suffered to much pain to do nothing."

"We've got an obligation to take that step." From the look on the Presidents face at the round table, he sure as hell means it!

And ya, I too love his placemarker. The President. Oh yes, he sure is!

Thank you, Cha.

Al Franken, Top 10 IQ Senator's!! But I digress, to imagine this pic (the top one with Franken and Obama and Air Force I) being shown to the SNL writers in one of their writing sessions 30 years ago. (Oh, to be a fly on the wall for that!!)
