I don’t know who came up with this, but it’s brilliant:

Members of Congress should wear uniforms like NASCAR drivers, so we can identify their corporate sponsors.

Only the really fat ones (where is Henry Hyde, now that we need him?) would have enough room on their uniforms for all of the patches and logos.
Jeb “Tiny” Bush and Bill “Gluttony is a Virtue” Bennett look as though they would qualify.

That was Gene Lyon when the bankruptcy bill passed. I remember him proposing an MBNA t-shirt for Joe Biden.

I think it was Molly Ivins who said that in a column, but she may not have originated the idea.

I just made a lab full of students yell out “Hell yeah” reading this to them.
I’d even be willing to sew the corporate patches on for them!

Jim Hightower originated the saying, so it’s no surprise that Molly Ivins may have quoted it, seeing as how they were buds.

You would think the sponsors would love that. Free (well, relatively free) advertising!
