Aasif Mavi and The Daily Show

Non-sports post.

Brilliant!

Wait until you see the show posted online.

Basically, the brain-dead legislators of Florida want Floridians on welfare to pee in a cup to prove they are not on drugs before getting the welfare money.  One of the legislators said something like “The taxpayers deserve to know if that money is going to go to drugs or not.”

Manvi asked: “Who pays your salary?”

“The taxpayers.”

Manvi: “So, can you pee in this cup?  Don’t the taxpayers deserve to know you are not on drugs?”

The politician knew he got nailed, and then danced around the issue.

It was beautiful.
