4. What I find most hypocritical is that many people like her applaud drug testing of pilots and ...
... bus drivers. She'd be one of the first to demand intrusions on the privacy of others employed in transport ... but regards her own operation of a vehicle on the public thoroughfare as some sacrosanct 'liberty.' I can even guess she was driving an SUV - based on the notion that, in a crash, SHE'D survive and it'd be someone else that died. If so, that's the moral equivalent of premeditated homicide, imho.

I can't describe how appalled I am when I see folks driving SUVs in rush hour traffic on an 8-lane divided highway, cell phone in ONE hand and gesturing with the OTHER hand! No hands on the wheel ... gesturing to someone who can't even see the gestures. Such imbecilic behavior, imho, warrants immediate revocation of all driving privileges for at least a year.
