“Al Franken, Giant of the Senate”? Is this a real book? Really?

Bombthrowers: According to Amazon, Sen. Al Franken (D-ACORN) has a book coming out on May 30.

This purported book is called, Al Franken, Giant of the Senate.

This is the blurb for it [emphasis in original]:

From the #1 bestselling author – the story of an award-winning comedian who decided to run for office and then discovered why award-winning comedians tend not to do that.

This is a book about an unlikely campaign that had an even more improbable ending: the closest outcome in history and an unprecedented eight-month recount saga, which is pretty funny in retrospect.

It’s a book about what happens when the nation’s foremost progressive satirist gets a chance to serve in the United States Senate and, defying the low expectations of the pundit class, actually turns out to be good at it.

It’s a book about our deeply polarized, frequently depressing, occasionally inspiring political culture, written from inside the belly of the beast.

In this candid personal memoir, the honorable gentleman from Minnesota takes his army of loyal fans along with him from Saturday Night Live to the campaign trail, inside the halls of Congress, and behind the scenes of some of the most dramatic and/or hilarious moments of his new career in politics.

Has Al Franken become a true Giant of the Senate? Franken asks readers to decide for themselves.

Oh puh-lease.

  1. A fraudulent victory requiring 8! months of recounts with ballots appearing from many places until the desired result was achieved. He’s also part of the reichstag that blames Hillary’s loss on the Russians. There are countless deplorables on Capitol Hill. Frankenstein is at the same time undistinguished and a miserable asshole of epic notoriety.

    Good luck selling that book.
