And I see High Profile Democrat (major Hillary fundraiser) - who's that? Rothschild?

That deserves a harumph from me..

1. I would change the channel
Your house, your domain, so you get to decide what's on the tube.

4. Sage.
Burn a bundle of sage after he leaves. And don't forget to get the corners.

7. DUDE!
Take control, My FIL was looking for Faux news on a visit a few years ago, told him I blocked it! I hadn't so my daughter showed him where to find it. Every time he comes out he kind of looks at me when he picks up the remote making sure it is O.K. The in laws come to visit next week, Faux will be blocked.

9. you're a good host actually.
my dad watched Faux because it amuses him, he's voting for Obama but Faux is like a new icky toy he's found, i warned he may get brain damage but he told me since he's 69 he's ok with that.

11. Wouldn't it be nice if when they sell you those packages you could
pick and chose which channels you want instead of them choosing for you. I would give at least 10 channels for Sundance Channel.
