   Buried about half way down in today's World story of Statehouse Republicans censuring a couple of their members was this paragraph:

   "Terrill, in speaking against the reprimand, asked why previous transgressions went unnoticed. He mentioned members bringing alcohol on the House floor, having alcohol in their offices and having sex with a staff member before his microphone was cut off shortly before his allotted time expired. Rep. Don Armes, R-Faxon, who was in the speaker's chair, said Terrill had strayed off the subject."

    "Having sex with a staff member?? Boozing in their offices and on the house floor?? Strong words and wouldn't all this make the average voter wonder what the hell is going on down there! (Presumably among his fellow Republicans.) And all this, in front of the women and children. 
What next?

Terrill is a doosh and, IMO, a good part of the Oklahoma GOP caucus are a bunch of sanctimonious creeps.

I can't wait for the legislature to go sine die in June.   The streets will be safe again, and I can dig up the silver ware.

Is it possible that the playbook from the City Council somehow made it's way to the State House, or have our City Fathers overseers been mentored by the State Legislature?
