'I hate to cause a stink': Comfortably Smug wants FCC to investigate Swalwell's TV fart and Ajit Pai's response is PERFECT

If you had told me, ‘Sam, one day in 2019 you’ll spend nearly 15 hours writing stories about a congressman farting on live television,’ I’d have thought you were insane. Ok, maybe not, especially if you told me this on Twitter … I suppose at the end of the day this really is a gift from the Twitter Gods, unless of course, you’re Democrat with a stick perpetually lodged up your backside and unable to see the humor in anything at all.

This was pretty freakin’ funny.

But definitely inexcusable behavior from a sitting representative on LIVE TV of all things.

@ComfortablySmug had a great idea …

The FCC should investigate what @ericswalwell just did, that disgusting, vulgar display has no place on live television.

I hate to cause a stink, but we have to decline the invitation; any @FCC investigation would abruptly run out of gas given that this alleged emission occurred on a cable news network (the relevant rules apply only to broadcast television). https://t.co/d7B8xEtWza

Cause a stink.

Run out of gas.

This is real life, folks, and God Bless America.

Thanks for clearing the air
