GOP lawmaker pushes ban on yoga pants, Speedos in public (Harry Reid, middle east)

[LoveToRow]

Anything that targets people who do yoga is all right by me. These folks have no qualms inflicting their will on everyone else by using the government. What's good for the goose is good for the gander!

for those interested in reading the actual proposed Bill:

Why do I get the feeling that Mr. Moore enjoyed writing about, in explicit detail, the 'naughty bits'? (the part that is underlined).

Yoga Pants? Are those the same as camel-toe pants?

I think Mr. Moore was thinking of Yogi pants, or the lack thereof:

Zilch, because it will likely be tabled. They usually have dozens of these kinds of bills in legislatures across the Country every session. Only once in a great while do they actually advance them.

Then stay at home .

Who do you think pays this moron's salary? How about the work hours staffers put into drafting this idiocy?

Everything a Congressional representative does costs the taxpayers money. When a representative puts forth this kind of blatant stupidity they need to be held accountable.

Frank, as a sidenote, nobody in the Dems in recent memory have tried to control what people wear, especially when it comes to women

However, it didn't stop them from intruding into people's bedrooms.

Pretty much. And why would anyone want to ban them? /wink

Spoken as a female who frequently wears yoga pants in public. 5'8" 130 lbs. Use your imagination....

A Montana lawmaker, Republican David Moore, says tight-fitting clothing like yoga pants and Speedos press right up against indecency laws and ought to be banned.

So he’s introduced a bill that would prohibit the public wearing of clothing items that “give the realistic appearance” of parts of a person’s anatomy that should be left completely to the imagination, the Billings Gazette reported.

The American Taliban has surfaced yet again.
