At least Travis was paying attention

Travis Fain, over at Lucid Idiocy, gives us this gem of how our legislators don’t really know what they are voting for all the time under the Gold Dome.

Now effective July 1, 2008, the other Code section, O.C.G.A. ¬ß 21-2-415, has been repealed as well. This was the Code section that required all campaign literature to disclose the name and address of the person or organization responsible for it, and for an organization to include the names and addresses of its three highest officials. Also repealed was another part of this Code section which made it a misdemeanor to falsely use a person’s name or likeness to endorse a candidate without the authorization of such person.

So now the next time a political candidate says that God told them to run, they can use something similar on a nice billboard.

This is gonna be an interesting campaign cycle. I wonder which mail company will be the first to test this new rule.
