Do you remember those words from grade school? The big kid from the back of the class shot a spitball at the teacher, and so everyone got the same punishment.

Maybe politicians should get nifty suits like NASCAR drivers. It would be interesting to see who’s name shows up where.
Wouldn’t that be fun?
