Jeannie Inskeep: TV ads a waste of money

Thanks, politicians, for ruining the one thing I can barely afford – TV. I can now say I welcome the ED commercials.

Thanks, politicians, for wasting obscene amounts of money on ads that we mute.

Thanks, politicians, for blasting the other guy (duh, we know you don’t like them.) How about telling us what they stand for?

Thanks, politicians for blowing obscene amounts of money, while people in North Carolina are flooded out of their homes, losing everything. It must make them feel good to waste that money (can I say mute button) while they suffer.
