asshole in my thinking. I watch Fox 'news" as long as my remote takes to register the channel number, and I'm past it. it's bad enough having those slobs on in the morning in the breakfast area of motels as we travel.

If you look at the video, at the very end a woman on the panel with Beckel is seen with her hands doing a double facepalm...
