Being an election year, your teevee has probably already started spewing forth patronizing political ads depicting you the voter as a singleminded fuckwit more interested in symbolic bullshit than actual issues. Which is usually true, so they work their cynicism to great effect. That is, of course, when they're not hilariously awful.
One of the more written about senate races around the country is in Minnesota where comedian-cum-blowhard Al Franken is pitted against incumbent Republican Sen. Norm Coleman. Coleman would like to remind voters, who he presumes are gruff bowling alley patrons who shout people down and pelt them with hockey pucks when they deviate from their angry chants, that he was instrumental in getting an NHL franchise back in the state. So remember this November: VOTE FOR HOCKEY OR GET PELTED WITH PUCKS!

comedian-cum-blowhard Al Franken
He's gay? Whatever…still better than Coleman.
i’m voting for whoever promises to make it legal to stab people that don’t use turn signals. party affiliations be damned
alternative ending, "…and he's not a Jew."

what’s hockey?
You'll never see one of these ads saying: "He brought soccer here!"
Unless it's an ad from the opposition!
Oh snap, did you see what I just did there? I'm suggesting that soccer sucks donkey balls.
Hmmm, A hockey-guy or al franken.
I hear the 3rd party canidate “hobo cadaver” is gaining traction.
Norm Coleman has a soft spot for hockey because it reminds him of what his teeth looked like before the cosmetic surgery.

he could be from england
bringing hockey back > Stuart Saves His Family
All the reason in the world the people from MN should vote for Coleman.
Franken’s reply should be, “HE ALSO BROUGHT BACK KEVIN MCHALE”.
I originally thought this was another Love Guru clip, this time with more Timberlake.
I'm sure without him, hockey would never come back to the state of hockey. Ever.
So this November ask yourself, what has Obama done to bring back white guys with sticks?
well readykilowatt, the real answer to that question lies in the former confederate states. they got sticks, pitchforks, torches and rope with obamas name on it.
