        @WSJ We Venezuelans have a higher opinion only of colonoscopies and root canals, because the majority of the Congress are cockroaches !

        @WSJ Colonoscopies based on willing entry. Cockroaches eat scraps not your labor. Root canals? Never been offered nitrous to watch CSPAN.

        @WSJ Colonoscopies & Politicians do differ. One provides a detailed view via the rectum. The other is a medical procedure. #HeadsUpArses

        @WSJ 53% enjoy colonoscopies. Damn. There should be a colonoscopy shop on every corner. I want to buy stock. What's the symbol?

        @WSJ It is fruitless to poll the feelings about congress. They disagree. It is better to poll who we agree with.
