JUST BECAUSE THERE’S A WAR ON doesn’t mean that there aren’t idiocies elsewhere. Here’s a Texas Republican Congressman who wants to jail college kids for file-trading.

Why aren’t the Democrats protesting this suggestion? Oh, right, because they’re in the pockets of the entertainment industry. Charming.

Me, I think we should jail a few members of Congress as an example to the others. Let’s treat acceptance of illegal campaign donations as a strict-liability felony. Call it Sarbanes-Oxley II. . . .

Meanwhile, let me know who’s running against this guy next time, so I can send money. Legally, of course.
