Does anyone else feel like throwing a shoe at the TV |

1. I'm watching a guy who looks like Mr. French - or some other butler - |

He's on PBS on the News Hour and he's a stock writer.
Hard to take him seriously, though, because he looks like a character actor.
No shoe throwing here.

I'm glad the ads are on the air. I may not agree with some of the specifics of his plan, but he is reminding people that we cannot drill, drill, drill our way out of the problem.

6. No, on those rare occasions when I have to watch TV |
|
(Usually because someone in the house has it on) I would prefer to take it out with a shotgun. Unfortunately I don't have a shotgun.

8. Just the name does it for me. |

Sounds like what's left after a steak dinner.
