There's A Little Bug Inside Me, Too

Well, actually its a stent that was put in one year ago, but I digress.

Jay Rockefeller (Asshat-WVA), thinks the reason Americans are so confused and scared is because FoxNews and MSNBC are broadcasting news 24/7/365 and the only way to return the universe to harmony and balance is to make them go away. H'mm. An elected official, who supposedly took an oath to defend the Constiutution, (all of it, not just the parts he likes), wants to stop publicly owned companies from conducting legal and Constitutionally protected business.

Does anyone else find this particularly disturbing or am I just being my normal, cynical paranoid self?

West Virginia's Sen. Jay Rockefeller wishes the Bill of Rights didn't include the first one -- If his brief appearance during a hearing on retransmission yesterday is any indication, the coal dust is starting to cloud Sen. Jay Rockefeller's mind. “We need new catalysts for quality news and entertainment programming,” Rockefeller said during a subcommittee meeting led by Sen. John Kerry. "There’s a little bug inside of me which wants the FCC to say to Fox and to MSNBC, ‘Out. Off. End. Good-bye.’ It’d be a big favor to political discourse, our ability to do our work here in Congress and to the American people to be able to talk with each other and have some faith in their government and more importantly in their future."
