Al Franken

Shot to fame as an unlikely role as a Democratic flag bearer, when Fox News launched a court challenge over his book, the cover of which mocked the network's slogan: "Fair and balanced." Comedian and headlining host of the burgeoning Liberal talk radio network Air America, Al Franken is hoping Americans countrywide will simultaneously scream a wisecrack at the moment George W. Bush accepts his party's presidential nomination.

Calling it a non-disruptive form of protest, Franken says participants should quiet down before Bush begins speaking, so "people can hear him give a bad speech."
