Sigh. All the dildos in Texas, Virginia, Mississippi, and Alabama are concentrated in their respective State Capitols, and the same is largely true for all other States as well.

Your tax dollars at work… Sigh.

Ah, Texas…

It is also damn funny to boot. This is a great example of the power of terminology in both a cultural and legal context. It is also damn funny to boot.
