Do you have any back-up for that ad hominem assessment, or are you just

For one example of his punditry, I refer you to chapter 30 of his book.
Further, if you want to get your blood pressure up, I suggest chapter 22. Any
Dittoheads still with me at this point will no doubt decry Franken as
uninformed or at best nonsensical, but neither, in fact, is the case.
