Most Americans must pass a drug test after a work-related injury

[rustydog]

Why aren't we requiring our Legislators and Executive Branch to do the same.
the President and Vice-President are "on-shift' 24/7. so when Bush falls off of a Segway (something almost impossible to do) why didn't he have to pee in a bottle.

When he choked on the pretzel, why didn't he have to pee in a bottle?
When he starts to slur his words worse than when he is allegedly sober, why isn't he made to pee in a bottle to prove his intoxicaton?

When Vice-President Dick-Head shot the man in the face, why wasn't he blowing into an intoximeter?
Why wasn't he emptying his bladder into a test bottle instead of filling it with more alcohol afterwards?

These bastards hold all Americans to a standard they would be sobbing to their "trial lawyers" and "activist judges" they profess to hate so much. How much do you want to bet they would send their hated lawyers calling on the ACLU for help?

We need to get a 50-state initiative requiring elected officials and their staff submit to drug tests like our employers require of us.

1. Privilege

Different rules apply to people in different socioeconomic classes. People in the upper classes are not presumed guilty. They are are less subject to questions about their conduct. They are accorded privacy and their physical persons are respected.
Those in the lower classes are presumed guilty, forced to defend their conduct against the presumption of guilt (We have the criminal in custody, the crime will soon be discovered) and are afforded no privacy and treated, with respect to their persons, about the same as livestock.

3. In the eyes of the ruling class

We are livestock, nothing more than cheap labor.

2. Sure...

...and while we are at it...let's require that ALL citizens receive the same healthcare coverage as they do.
Fat chance.

What I like to tell my 'friends' on the far right:
"You can test my body fluids, you can tap my phones and rummage through my house when I am not home...but just don't touch my guns"
:sarcasm:

4. Here's a better idea.

How about freeing all of us from this oppressive invasion of privacy?

[SHRED]

5. I second that!

:toast:

6. Because they won't , so why can't we hold President dip-shit

to the same standard?

7. No argument here but congress has exempted itself from nearly

all the laws they pass for as long as I've been alive. It is wrong, but the sheeple just go along.

8. I think that is perfectly reasonable! Clean it up and send it to a

Senate staffer. See if they can slip it into one of thier sure fire bills in the middle of the night so that none of them (D) or (R) notice it until it's too late.
