Back in the mid-90s, Al Franken and Arianna Huffington shared a bed. Repeatedly.

Arianna:

[W]e were both married. And, long before Pam and Tommy Lee or Paris Hilton, we always made sure we had a camera to record our liaisons. Shocking but true. What can I say, we were young, we were passionate, and there was something between us that couldn’t be denied. And the fact that it was being recorded for posterity only added to the frisson.

But the past has a way of bubbling up at the most opportune moment– and ending up on YouTube. So I’m going to beat the Gotcha Gang to the punch and preemptively release the videos here and now… and hope the people of Minnesota will be able to look past them (as Al’s wife Franni has). It would kill me if these videos were to become Al Franken’s Macaca Moment.

P.S. Keep in mind, these were shot over a decade ago, so please forgive my hair… and my views. But I still have the lingerie!

And, yes, that’s Harold Ramis and G. Gordon Liddy watching…but not through a keyhole.
