    I kind of wish everyone who set foot in that room was fitted with a device that electrically zaps them every time they say some disingenuous bullshit. It’s always so uncomfortable to watch, and they know exactly what they’re doing.

      I was saying the other day we need a neutral third party the hangs around Congress and every time they do something unconstitutional or stupid, the whole class room has to watch Schoolhouse Rock episodes about civics.

      Every time.
