Kansas lawmaker imposes dress code on female witnesses
A Kansas lawmaker came under fire from female legislators Thursday after he imposed a dress code that prevents women testifying on bills from wearing low-cut necklines and miniskirts.
Republican state Sen. Mitch Holmes issued an 11-point code of conduct to guide women on how to dress. The Topeka Capital-Journal reported that Holmes’ rules don’t include any restrictions on men because, according to Holmes, men don’t need instructions on how to look professional.
We live in a time in which decent and otherwise sensible people are surrendering too easily to the hectoring of morons or extremists.

Read Sen Holmes' lame defense of this rule in which he smears a critic as being unAmerican.
Real classy. I guess patriotism really is the last refuge of a scoundrel:
Holmes said the rule has been around for three years, so he's surprised it's creating a stir now.
"A particular reporter, one known for not joining in the pledge of allegiance, decided to make an issue of the committee rules I use,"
he said in a message to KWCH.

Re: "Oh, for crying out loud, what century is this?"
Two things:
1) I'll bet Holmes is an avid viewer of Fox 'news' with their bevy of bimbo, kewpie doll 'reporters' and fantasizes about the 6 girls that turned him down when he asked them to prom.
2) Rumor has it that Holmes doesn't need to wear a jock strap as he's lacking the contents that this piece of equipment is used to protect.
