Let’s see:

• Iran is still working towards nuclear weapons
• The American economy is in the crapper because of Democrat meddling in the free market
• ACORN is committing voter fraud all across America
• The National Debt is incredibly high
• Social Security is insolvent

There are so many other issues that America faces that are of dire imporance. So what are Congressional Democrats talking about?

Whether NFL fans are getting free football coverage in their viewing area:

Connecticut Sen. Joe Lieberman and some of his colleagues, including Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., have asked the pro football commissioner to tackle the issue of making more game day TV broadcasts available to fans for free on the NFL Network.

The league has said it provides free broadcasts in the home cities of competing teams. But 13 lawmakers said in a letter this week to Roger Goodell that the NFL is too narrowly interpreting what is a home city.

“The policy leaves behind NFL fans across the country simply because they live outside cities to which the NFL has granted franchises,” according to the letter made public Wednesday. For example, the NFL does not consider the western Pennsylvania town of Johnstown part of the Pittsburgh Steelers’ home market, the letter said.

I try my best not to swear on this blog, and while I’m not going to here, this really pushed my limits. Are you for real? You are worried about whether Pittsburgh Steeler fans can see their team? How about they buy the NFL Sunday Ticket from DirecTV? How about they find a way to watch the game.

Thomas Jefferson would punch these morons right in the face and drag them out of the halls of Congress.
