Stuart Smalley, a character from Saturday Night Live.

I don’t intend for this blog to be controversial but I just have to say this: “What the heck is going on with our political system?!?!”

I just watched the video of Al Franken’s swearing in ceremony and all I could see was him laughing on the inside.

And I would too. I mean, this is Stuart Smalley, Saturday Night Live’s “I’m good enough, smart enough, and dog gone it, people like me” guy.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not against actors becoming politicians. I think Arnold Schwartzenegger has proven himself in California- especially in these tough times for the state. I just cannot see Stuart Smalley representing middle America.
