Thank you Mr. Black for being so good today on behalf of the People that Mr. Franken had to ‘shut you down.’ THEY called you to give testimony didn’t they? You might have tipped this committees hand a bit better if only they didn’t have both of them covering their ears!
Maybe Mr. Franken could have cleared his otherwise pressing calendar for something as important as the Peoples’ Voice. You ARE that Professor! You could have been no more ‘on point’ for the People!
Mr. Franken, as if in a scene from a bad,bad, movie had to check his watch, and pretend he had somewhere more important to be than listening to the People? So much for Mr. Franken’s oath to the People. Another sham hearing of what is! Freedom of speech, as long as you give them the Reader’s Digest version.
We are all in your debt Mr. Black!
