What about a marijuana sensor? What about a sensor for prescription drugs? What about a stuck on stupid sensor?

yes, let’s just encourage all of our ‘representatives’ to pursue their own private causes...it’s the (un)-American way, isn’t it?.....I think we should all proceed on a national program to have any and all politicians spayed or neutered before taking office to ensure that no progeny like them follows...

Heck this ought to make his gin-soaked corpse spin so fast you could attach a couple of wires to him and generate more power than all those windmills off of Nantucket Sound.

Why doesn’t this congressman just go to the source and push for the reinstitution of prohibition?

I'm guessing all the hand-sanitizer that got spread around during the swine flu epidemic would have brought the country to a stand still.

T-Paw (our GOP prez wannabe MN guv) just signed into law a ignition interlock for drunks.

Yep. Make them pass drunk tests to vote and there would be no votes.
