Maybe Batchelder Just Wants To Watch Matlock While In Session?

As the self identified leader of the "Caveman Caucus" in the House of Representatives, we could not let Speaker Batchelder get away with his latest comment on this new fangled modern technology called computers they use in the House.

From The Daily Briefing:

Brilliant, but perhaps not technologically inclined Ohio House Speaker Bill Batchelder got the ball rolling yesterday when he instructed his members to check an amendment on the "little TV screen on your desk." 

He was referring to the computer monitors each member has on their desk in the House Chamber to check legislation and amendments under consideration. Batchelder got a big, if unexpected, laugh.

After that, it became a running joke with several lawmakers referring to amendments on the "little TVs." 

Someone should send Speaker Batchelder to computer class at the community college so he can get back to the important business, like keeping all those damn kids off of his lawn, walking laps around the mall at 10 am, and sending his grandchildren a $3 check on their birthday.
