Legislating While Intoxicated

The recent Patrick Kennedy incident reminds me of a law I proposed a couple decades ago. It's a law that will never pass even though it's sorely needed. Anyone who's paying attention to the abysmally stupid legislation, i.e. prescription drug law to name just one, that has recently come from Washington would not be surprised to learn that the lawmakers had at least one martini too many while passing that law.
The uneasy feeling I get is that the very people who are telling us that we should be sober when we drive our cars are often shitfaced drunk when they accept the bribes that buy their votes. It's clear that sobriety is much more important when you're steering the nation. It should be a felony for our representatives in Congress to legislate with a blood alcohol content of more than 0.05%. Communicating with lobbyists should be considered part of legislating for the purposes of this proposed law, since that's how most laws are conceived.
This law will never pass because those who want to incarcerate pot heads are unwilling to admit that their intoxicant of choice (alcohol) is much more deadly and disruptive than the hemp plant, a plant that could cure us of our addiction to oil.
Hefty hypocrisy taxes should be levied on those who proclaim their support for the war on drugs while imbibing alcoholic beverages.
