If I read it on air, can I say "pissed off"?

The Allergists voted to scratch it, but Dermatologists advised Congress not to make any rash moves. The Gastroenterologists had sort of a gut feeling about it, but the Neurologists thought the Administration had a lot of nerve. The Obstetricians felt the politicos were all laboring under a misconception. Ophthalmologists considered the healthcare bill shortsighted. Pathologists yelled, "Over my dead body!"... while the Pediatricians said, "Oh, Grow up! " The Psychiatrists thought the whole concept was madness, while the Radiologists could see right through it. Surgeons decided to wash their hands of the whole thing. The Internists thought it was a bitter pill to swallow, and the Plastic Surgeons said, "This puts a whole new face on the matter." The Podiatrists thought the plan was a step forward, but the Urologists were *pissed* off at the whole idea. The Anesthesiologists thought the plan was a gas, yet the Cardiologists didn't have the heart to say no. In the end, the Proctologists won out, leaving the entire decision up to the *assholes* in Washington. Ha! Ha! And you thought this was a serious e-mail!
