Norm Coleman: Key To Republican Success Lies In The "Ethernet"

Clearly, Norm Coleman isn't exactly tech-savvy. After a speaking engagement in St. Louis this week, he told a video-camera wielding supporter that the key to success for Republicans "lies in the ethernet."

Coleman, who was in Minnesota Supreme Court this week appealing the Senate election results, was in St. Louis to give a speech at the Conservative Heartland Leadership Conference.

Minnesota Public Radio has audio of Coleman's remarks to reporters Thursday.

[AmericanWarrior]

His teeth got in the way...

Coleman's got George Washington rolling in his grave.
In laughter, with those cheesy choppers.
He could probably snap down a cherry tree with 'em.
OK, Coleman, hit the road and let Franken in.

[portwes]

He is obviously being taught about these complex issues by GW Bush, who once informed us that "yes, I go on the internets".

[kgb999]

I'd always pictured Coleman as more of a token-ring kind of guy.

[Emmy2]

I was thinking more like SNA.

[Akindles]

Or possibly a twisted pair

[chronic]

LOL! Lawd.

A local network of business tools closed to the outside world; sounds about right, Chompers.

Is the 'Ethernet' also a 'series of tubes'?

Well, huffing ether would explain a lot about the GOP lately.

Norm Coleman: Key To Republican Success Lies...

Now I like my headline much better.

[rich misty]

It certainly is more accurate.

[edtheengineer]

Normie is being close to accurate. The Key To RepubliCANT success is always lies!

[Ness27]

Silly! Its called the intrawebz

[seted]

More like lay off the Ether.

[tierone]

Too funny! Of course, we ALL know it's really the EtherTubes. . . . .

[FrozenNorthObserver]

if he has to get to the telegraph office can he drive his horseless carriage through the EtherTube on his way there?

[nana4g]

These people are insane. Just plain insane. They have been too long away from elite educational institutions, from fact based theories, and, actually, have been too long already in the "ethernet" and have lost all sense of reality.

[Mark Twaine]

Minnesota. The next Alaska?

[Akindles]

You have heard of Michelle Bachmann haven't you? We are already there.

[edtheengineer]

Bachmann is another example of a whackadoodle who has been sniffing large amounts of ether.
