From The Party of Personal Responsibility

State Sen. Delbert Scott (R-Lowry City) explains why he wrote a law (SB2) to outlaw Tuppwerware coolers on Missouri's rivers instead of polystyrene coolers.

Lawmakers intended to reduce floating debris and pollution from abandoned foam coolers in the state's waterways. But they confused their plastics, and instead of banning Styrofoam, they criminalized the plastic containers found in many kitchens but seldom used to ferry beer and soda down a river...

"When you depend on the federal government to write the stuff, that's what happens. It gets screwed up."

Stupid federal government. Always surreptitiously writing legislation in Scott's name, coercing him to sponsor their bills and convincing him not to read his own bills before passage --- just to embarrass him in front of his friends.
