Campaign Mailer Slams Franken

Posted by: admin

 

It appears that Franken’s own past is coming back to haunt him – in the form of a cartoon-style mailer that had been distributed to select Minnesota residents. The mailer, which makes the following points:

 

• “Wrote a pornographic column in Playboy – and thought it was funny.”
• “Has written so-called comedy routines about raping women.”
• “Tackled a protester at a political rally – and bragged about it.”

 

has been criticized as obscene and “un-funny” by area residents that happened to receive the mailer. 

“I was shocked when I saw this piece attacking Al Franken … This piece of mail would offend anybody,” said Edina mother and teacher Marcela Roos. “It targets our children and taunts them to open it and to find only very obscene and inappropriate language, which deals with rape and pornography.”

Of course, we’ll let  you be the judge. The Douchebag Report has received a PDF copy of the mailer, which can be downloaded/viewed here.
