And for the most part, he parrots the DLC line.

Bullshit.

Now, as regards your contention that he's ignorant rather than malicious: that can't be verified, first of all;

Actually it can be verified, by listening to him. Unless you are arguing that he is a liar and propagandist, in which case the burden of proof lies on you.

and secondly, someone in Franken's position, if ignorant, can only be said to be willfully ignorant.

That is absurd.

2. See post #61. Also, one doesn't have to be a pacifist (I'm not) to favor immediate withdrawal.

umm, yah, but nobody claimed otherwise.

3. To fill you in: when Arafat died, he broadcasted a "funny" sketch in which Arafat was strangled to death in his hospital bed. That should provide some taste of his views on the issue.

Actually that provides very little actual information about his views on the issue. It tells me he wasnt a huge Arafat fan and made a bad joke. Now I know very few people who are arafat fans regardless of thier position on Israel/Palestine, and I know people of every ideology who make bad jokes.
