Genius of the week nominee

Yet another article concerning the recent Supreme Court decision on direct shipping. There have been way too many of these things written and this one is really no different with the obligatory 'what about the children' crap except for the last little bit:
Hartselle City Council President Kenny Thompson said the ruling does not bother him.

"There are a lot of folks that drink that don't want anybody to know it, so I don't care if they order it online," Thompson said. "I just wish the city could get the taxes off of it."
What's that saying about an honest man in Washington? Okay, so this guy's in northern Alabama, but you get the point. It really comes down to the dollar bill and who's getting it, or more importantly, not.
