Wanted: one taser that works through the television.  If I had had my hands on such a thing last night while watching the Newshour on PBS, I would not have suffered such a migraine headache and three cracked molars from clenching my jaw so as to not scream out loud, at…

• The Supremes who, in their infinite ignorance, thumbed their noses at Thomas Jefferson who said this to say back in 1816:  “I hope we shall… crush in its birth the aristocracy of our moneyed corporations, which dare already to challenge our government to a trial of strength and to bid defiance to the laws of our country.” I would have tasered that smarmy, pasty-faced little twerp who was offering the Republican perspective that at last the benighted corporations will have their First Amendment rights restored.
• The Democrats who lost the race in Massachusetts thus assuring that Health Care will never be passed in any form that does anyone any good.  I just wish that they had told me the president knew last week that Coakley was going to lose because I wouldn’t have anted up $30 I so unwisely sent them.  It will snow in July, not to mention being a cold day in hell, before the Democratic Party gets a penny out of me again.
• The reporters sending back Chicken Little stories from Haiti that No Aid is Getting To People.  No People are Being Helped.  The Streets Are Awash With Looters.  I expect PBS to be even-handed in their reporting.  Perhaps they shouldn’t be using reporters who cut their teeth on rags like The Sun.  It’s gotten to the point that when I hear an British accent on NPR or PBS, I know I’m going to hear doom and gloom in the most doom-filled and gloomy voice.

So that’s who I’d be zapping with my TV taser.  Who would you get?
