the Daily Show asked Governor Rick Scott to pee in a cup!!

http://www.tampabay.com/blogs/media/content/daily-show-airs-story-footage-aasif-mandvi-asking-gov-rick-scott-pee-cup

This was hilarious...and the Tampa Times reported on it today, so you can check the link.

"Daily Show correspondent Aasif Mandvi's recent trip to Tallahassee, where he asked a number of state legislators to pee in a cup while working on a story about Florida's drug testing of welfare recipients finally hit the airwaves last night.
And, as expected, it made the Sunshine State look like a haven for hypocrisy and hysterically uninformed conservatism."

Indiana is enacting similar legislation as Florida (requiring those on public assistance to test for drugs)

And they've heard your cries of hypocrisy and are initiating random drug testing of the legislature.

Just because they test themselves doesn't make these laws any more repressive of the poor or discriminatory against people who are sick.
