On all the smoking ban threads we like to joke around about banning perfumes or unwashed armpits. Until now I always thought it was an amusing way to illustrate the absurdity of the nanny-state mentality.

But now people are actually proposing this. And not just the crazy street people ranting in public parks and under highway off-ramps. Our elected officials are proposing this garbage.

This has got to be a nightmare. We can't even draw silly comparisons now for fear that some idiot legislator is going to take the suggestion seriously and try to pass a law.

Remember? It was predicted. BUT, don't blame the prediction for the idiocy. See it as the expected next step in PC control.

Let's take bets on what inanities will be next.

No, politicians' lies will not be banned. Uninformed and/or disinterested voters won't be turned away at the polls. The "blue dress" president won't be banned from the WH.

OK, here's one. All public schools MUST be equipped with swimming pools to accommodate their swim team. All residents must pay for these pools.

Help me out here! What's next on the PC agenda?
