Vote early, and vote often!



Together with Al Franken and Air America Radio, MoveOn.org is holding a contest this week to find the most stupid or most clearly false – or ideally both – comment by a Bush administration official or major right-wing figure....


If you win, your quote will be featured on the O'Franken Factor radio show, and you'll be recognized by name. We'll also send you a signed and personalized copy of Al Franken's book, "Lies and the Lying Liars that Tell Them."
