...adding that he wants to spark school board-level discussion about testing and not push for a federal mandate.

Oh, I bet he'll get around to that.

[Sir Gawain]

I think his new title should be Drug Fuehrer.

[SteveMcKing]

Okay, but make sure you test teachers too.

SURELY teachers' unions would support that, no? Why on earth NOT?!?

[Wolfie]

Screw that. Test the Drug Czar.

Drug Czar Favors Testing Teens

Stay the hell off my kids your blatant misuse of government power and free cheese has ruined my boys leave my others alone you bunch of red tape money hungering creeps !

Maybe we should simply get rid of the Fourth Amendment prohibition against unlawful search and seizure and the Fifth Amendment prohibition of self incrimination while we are at it. Do away with probable cause, search all homes and mail and force everyone to say whether they have done anything illegal, immoral or fattening and life will be grand.

More proof the WOD is a war on the Constitution IMHO.

[Lizavetta]

Okay, but make sure you test teachers too.

Hell, test the politicians too. After all, if we're serious about combatting drug abuse the most noble among us must set a good example, non?

The pattern by which governments erode rights is to start with a subset of the population that garner little sympathy. Flood the popular media with images of ignorant and promiscuous teens fueled by hormones and rap music. Every other story is about youths and drugs. Get middle america to resent them and demand a solution. Then drop the ax. Goodbye America. It was fun.

That's my responsibility as a parent. If they want to test people for drugs, let them set a good example and start with politicians and other public servants first.

[pepperhead]

Why stop there, lets test everyone twice a month. We could help form hundreds of thousands of jobs, living off the hard work of the taxpayers. Papers please!

[sgtbono2002]

This will never happen.

[microgood]

The question is: Why not apply this to young people?"

Because you psychotic idiot (referring to John Walters), it is against the law. This scumbag needs to be fired now. The RNC is not getting another dime from me until this idiot is fired.

[Wolfie]

Tie it to highway funds, and its a done deal.

[Blue Champagne]

Shucks, why not start at the pre-school level? Sheesh.

[SpaceBar]

Drogeführer NDCP John Walters, you mean like that? It's interesting to note that the acronym for the nazi party is NSDAP(Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei). Just a peculiar observation.

[sgtbono2002]

Damn youre right, Hope they dont figure that out.

[dljordan]

Why don't we start by testing Congress? That should stir things up a little.

[AntiGuv]

every day

LOL! - you're on a roll!

[Uncle Vlad]

Oh, let's not stop there. Let's strip-search everyone, and I mean everyone, who walks through the door of a public school. And DNA samples from everyone to make sure everyone is really who he says he is. Wait a minute! I've got an even better idea: let's keep the kids extra safe by keeping them locked up at school 24/7. That way we can indoctrinate them even faster, so they'll be even more amenable to these blatant violations of the Constitution. And no more junk food. That'll make the world safe for democracy. (sarcasm off)
