It’s not the least bit funny that Al Franken could become a Senator in 2009.

In an appearance on NBC’s “Today” in 2005, Franken said he supported the initial invasion.

On his own Air America radio show in May of 2006, Franken said he would have voted to give the president the authority to use force in Iraq.

Then in August of 2007 on the radio show “Polichicks,” Franken maintained, “I was very torn in the lead up to the war and didn’t really take a position because I wasn’t convinced either way.”

On Minnesota’s own “Almanac” show in August of 2007, Franken said he was against the war in 2003.

Franken hasn’t wrestled with his position about the Iraq War — Franken is wrestling with the truth about his position on the war.

The same is true for his position on supporting the beginning of an immediate withdrawal of troops. Depending on what group he appears before he either favors an immediate withdrawal — against it — or isn’t quite sure.
