Barbara Walters in High-Def

With all due respect, seeing Barbara Walters in high-def is kinda like watching a parchment origami being made.

It occurs to me that this is why the media and the state are so tightly bound at the hip.

There's no freaking turnover. These people never -- never! -- leave their jobs.

Robert Byrd is, by my calculations, 117 years old and still serving in the Senate.

Mike Wallace is only 115 and has the complexion of a gravel driveway slathered in orange paint.

Nancy Pelosi and John Conyers have served in the House since the Continental Congress first convened. They may, in fact, have formaldehyde circulating in their veins.

In other words, the problem with the government and the government-run media is the recidivism. We need term limits for all of these losers. Give some fresh blood a chance, for heaven's sake.
