I am thankful for our President's rejection of the proposal. That clown LaHood should be kicked out of the GOP for even suggesting such an invasive, unconstitutional policy as that. It's time to take out the trash.

I'm surprised that you'd oppose LaHood's proposal.

Is it because he is a Republican?

I can't imagine why anyone would support it, honestly.

Of course, kick him out of the party because of a single idea he had somewhere (as if Republicans had not had dumber ideas before), not because he joined the oppositions administration. That's how a Republican thinks.
