http://twitter.com/#!/danthediverman/status/309401858240286720 Call the waah-mulance! Someone dared to actually ask questions, after government-funded National Public Radio asked for them! Oh, the horror! NPR asked for questions on Twitter today, using the hashtag #AskNPRIntern. https://twitter.com/michellemalkin/status/309400714185175042 Other Twitter users swiftly tweeted questions. https://twitter.com/AnthonyBialy/status/309403277131386882 https://twitter.com/AnthonyBialy/status/309406562789773314 https://twitter.com/DanAndros/status/309403713779412993 Heh.

But when it comes to them taking a cut, it’s out of the question. Pelosi says a “Congressional pay cut would undermine our dignity.” This is EXACTLY why we need to rid these people form power. […]
