If baseball players should have to, so should Bush. he's got his finger on the button.
don't many government employees have to take a pee test? why is he exempt?

2. How do we know he hasn't? |
|
They always make it sound like they're releasing his medical records, but major parts are missing (like any kind of neuro exam). How do we know if he's done any kind of urine test or not?

3. Yes. Also all members of the House and Senate, cabinet members |
|
and members of the Supreme Court. And they should have to do so in front of randomly selected witnesses.

7. Nobody, not even that piece of ****, should ever have to piss-test n/t |

I'll go along with competency tests, but only for folks like bus drivers and airline pilots who are encharged with other people's safety. Otherwise it's a body search, as far as I'm concerned. http://www.totse.com/en/drugs/legal_issues_of_drug_use/167480.html

15. Yes! I think you're right! |
|
If ANYONE should be subject to drug-testing, it should be the person with their finger on the red button. Oh, but that would take away the dignity of the office? Too bad. No one seems to care about OUR dignity when they force us to pee in cups to make our living. I'd love make all those SOBs submit to a pee test monthly. There'd probably be nothing more than a ghost staff left in Washington.

Maybe the next time he asks Congress for money for one of his agenda items (war, pestilence, etc), we should attach a rider that says that the Preznit will have to undergo daily urinalysis.

other government employees are required to do it, so why doesn't the constitution protect them?

26. Because it isn't listed in the requirements for the Presidency. |
|
The Constitution sets forth the requirements for the office. Any other requirements would require a Constitutional Amendment. Same for Senators, Representatives, and Supreme Court Justices.

20. I work for county government and I had to take one |
|
and I don't even have access to a button I could push should I want to jump start the Apocalypse. So yes, I think the man who has all of our collective fates in his blood-stained hands should have to pee in a cup.
