Pundits on different sides of he aisle, brothers Brad (Democrat) and Dallas (Republican) Woodhouse were just beginning to go after each other on CSPAN's Washington Journal when host Steve Scully took a call from Joy in North Carolina. It wasn't until she started to speak that the two brothers realized it was their mother calling to tell them their arguments were ruining the holidays.

As soon as host Scully announced the call, the brothers exclaimed how happy they were getting a call from the South. Until they heard the voice.

"You’re right, I’m from down south. And I’m your mother,” came out of the phone line.

"Oh God, it's Mom," said Dallas.

Joy Woodhouse proceeded to scold her two boys on national television for their political fighting, which was ruining family gatherings.

I disagree that many families are like ours. I don’t know many families that are fighting at Thanksgiving. I was very glad that this Thanksgiving was a year you were supposed to go to your in-laws. I’m hoping you’ll have some of this out of your system when you come here for Christmas. I would really like a peaceful Christmas.

It was fun television, especially when Mama Woodhouse told host Steve Skully that raising them "hasn’t been easy," but she loved both of them.

talking about being put in your place (so to speak).

Mom managed to embarrass them on national tv.

This is hilarious and very instructive.

...it’s not that hard to do actually....(embarrass them). One is wrong all the time, the other one is not very articulate at being right.

I just love the fact that their mother called, while they were at work and took them to task.

[too busy laughing about this}

My Leftist brother, who used to be smart, actually said to me (after discussing the mess our country is in) ‘well, none of it is Obama’s fault’. I said, ‘well then, whose fault is it?? If Bush was still President is sure as he** would be his fault!!’ He had no answer. So many are so happily brainwashed by the lies, they wouldn’t know the truth if it bit them in the ***.

yeah, that’s funny. Also speaks to how tiny C Span’s audience is. I’m sure many more people have seen the YouTube than saw the actual event.

I know the family a little....know their cousin, a GOP operative in NC, very very well.

C-Span does have it uses, few though they are.

I can hear these guys’ friends at work — “Do I have to get your mother on the phone?”

This is such a perfect way to needle them both.
probably why their mother did it.

C Span was on the way to the big time....launched before Fox, MSNBC, etc....but Brian Lamb totally blew it.

They were growing fast and getting about 90-95% conservative callers - then Lamb instituted that idiotic 50/50 rule. CSPAN was almost totally irrelevant that very day. One of the worst cable news decisions in history.
