I sure hope your lovely baby is up to date on her shots.

...to protect her from over exposure to Franken.

Does that baby have an original birth certificate? Can she prove it?
Because I don't think foreign babies should be biting US Senators.

That's hilarious!

I know you're a Republican James, but do you really think you should be teaching your child to attack Democrats at such a young age?

The baby is expecting milk from this big boob and will only get snot.
The American people are in for a similar suprise!

Do you know all of the "bugs" that are carried inside the nose and
on the skin?
Not to mention that this is Al Franken whose nose is being gnawed
on.
Watch for staph and strep...seriously.

Judging from the few comments here...apparently there is nothing that cannot be politicized into a partisan issue...

It took this to make you realize that?

Aip,
You mean like politicians kissing babies?
Never seen that before...[lol]
However; you're observation is astute!

It took this to make you realize that?

Not really...it's just a shame that a pleasant encounter between James and his family and Senator Franken can't be just that--a pleasant encounter...

Your little girl is adorable, James.

That's awesome. Twenty years from now, it'll be even more awesome. The memories!

I think all the comments so far have been pretty light hearted and tongue in cheek.

Except for the fact that noses are gross, and you shouldn't let your baby chew on someone else's. As a parent, that does kind of make me cringe.

A few germs are good for kids. The lack of them in today's hygienic society is one possible explanation for the sudden rise in severe food allergies.

Anyway, this has already naturally become a caption contest. But I've got nothing ...

NEW CAPTION CONTEST

James to daughter: "NOOOO'no...ka ka"

Daughter to Franken: "I'm smart enough and doggone it, people like me...but you taste like poo-poo"

:)

Extremely cute.

Well, it coulda been worse photo-op-wise. My daughter liked to bite the end of folks' noses. I think most babies would do it--after all, it does look something like a breast.... Anyway, the kibosh was put on the nose-biting the day she clamped on the tip of my nose with a newly erupted and theretofore unseen front tooth. Yeoooow!

Great pictures - the baby is adorable - Al Franken not so much! Cheers.

I wonder how long it will take the baby to get the taste of political corruption and obscenity out of her mouth after taking that dreadful taste of Franken.

More than likely, this baby was registered to vote by ACORN, and is a Franken voter. But seriously, speaking of Franken's electoral "victory", why are the people of Minnesota and the rest of the country for that manner not speaking out against Franken's theft of the election?

Whenever there's a recount, conveniently the votes ALWAYS increase for the Democrats (magic? I think not). And in Franken's case, not only were several boxes of ballots "found" after the election was over, there were many precincts that reported MORE VOTES THAN REGISTERED VOTERS! WTF? People are taking this sitting down?!?

He should be kissing her. it was probably her vote that put him over the top.

What a smart baby!!

D*mn that Rove really is good.

This confirms what everyone suspected. Franken is a boob. Also, I question the parenting ability of someone who would expose their child to that filth. - Disgusting

Well, Franken is a yellow-bellied liberal; however, if you are going to have an oral encounter with a senator in an airport, I'd rather have it with him than Larry Craig.

Don't bite that nose.

You don't know where it's been.

You got her well trained. Maybe next time she'll draw blood.

Let's hope Franken change from pro-death to pro-life. He might get more love bites from little angels like this one.

Wow, what a bunch of sore losers...here's hoping the senator sticks around for a good long time to annoy the hell out of certain people...

Triumph - good call!

ynot4tony2 - might want to check your facts.

You people are ridiculous. Please read your own comments, and see how mean-spirited they are.

Sore losers, much?

This is cute, and James says Senator Franken was gracious about it. Give it up, dudes.

It is disgraceful the little bitter comments by people on an overall innocent encounter. Personally it may be wise to block further comments because of the disgusting turn they seem to be taking.

Adorable shot, a slice of life, and then the political blood hounds jump in - really where is the sense?

Personally it may be wise to block further comments because of the disgusting turn they seem to be taking.

Better solution: How about people who are offended by partisanship stop whining about finding politics on a political blog and go waste their time on LOL cats instead.

For the record, there are now more comments complaining about the "all the mean comments", than there are actual mean comments.

I saw Franken at a baseball game, and he was very friendly and put up with a lot of people talking to him. The crowd cheered when he left and gave us a wave.
