Not to mention this is as much "class warfare" as anything else. Again.... hypocrites.
I agree with the writers that all lawmakers should be the FIRST ones to have to undergo this kind of testing. Once they have passed a bill to make that happen on a regular basis, and once they pass those drug tests, then and only then can said lawmakers talk about drug testing NON-Government workers just because they are on welfare.
I also think this sort of thing isn't exactly "shrinking government." So if these lawmakers are Republicans or especially tea party'ers that would tend to make them hypocrites.

Gloria, I for one think this is a worthwhile point of focus.
