“No man\u2019s life, liberty or property are safe while the Legislature is in session.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

     \u2014 Gideon John Tucker<\/p>\n

     What, then, could the combination of legislative power plus the power of alcohol<\/a> bring?<\/p>\n

\n

“When asked [\u2026] what she found most surprising at the State House, [Rhode Island Freshman Representative Moira] Walsh said, ‘The drinking. It is the drinking that blows my mind. You can not operate a motor vehicle when you\u2019ve had two beers but you can make laws that effect people’s lives forever when you\u2019re half in the bag? That’s outrageous!'”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

     She went on to state that “People have file cabinets full of booze<\/a>“.<\/p>\n

     It begs the question: Is what a legislature passes while drunk really worse than the insanity that they’d pull while sober?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

     A little mood music sung to a certain tune<\/a>…<\/p>\n

\n

Legislating tonight
\nLegislating tonight
\nLegislating tonight
\nLegislating tonight<\/p>\n

We’re going to have a legislative party tonight
\nWe’re going to have a legislative party, all right
\nWe’ve got nothing better to do
\nThan to legislate and have a couple of brews<\/p>\n

Everybody’s going to screw you here tonight
\nWe’ll pass out with all the interns, all right<\/p>\n

Abortion! Tranny rights! Screwing the right!
\nWe sit glued to the legislature set all night<\/p>\n

Why go into the deplorable<\/em> world at all? \u2014 it’s such a fright<\/p>\n

We’ve got nothing better to do
\nThan pass legislation that screws over you!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
