Al Franken is a cum laude graduate of Harvard with a Bachelor's Degree in Political Science. He's a four-time Emmy winning writer and six time published author, as well as a radio host and television and movie producer. Calling him nothing more than a "professional comedian" is more than a bit disingenuous.

Jill, disingenuous is being too kind, that's the way UG rolls.

Heh. Well, being a relative noob around here, I thought I'd wait until I know him better before I call him a moron.
