Did anyone see C-SPAN today when the disabled guy called in???
I couldn't believe it.....he called in and said he was living on 750.00 a month, the moderator interrupted and said "caller, can I play devils advocate for a minute??, how can you afford cable TV and long distance phone charges if you on disability??" I STARTED SCREAMING AT THE TV so loud, that my dog left the room!!! Where the h*ll does this guy get off......D*MN!!

6. the c-span host this morning is peter I think
I seen when he called in and peter asked the question how can you afford to make a long distance phone call on 750 a month after he said he lives on 750 a month with disability. the caller said I'll have to make a sacrifice for it. probably another repub calling in as a democrat.
