Priorities. Is there really nothing else better for the Virginia legislature to be worrying about than low-riding pants?

RICHMOND, Va. - Virginians who wear their pants so low their underwear shows may want to think about investing in a stronger belt.

The state's House of Delegates passed a bill Tuesday authorizing a $50 fine for anyone who displays his or her underpants in a "lewd or indecent manner."

Two things. First, there is no way the bill will work because the language "lewd or indecent" is too vague and unenforceable. Second, is there really nothing else better for them to be doing? Have all the other problems been solved? Is unemployment at a near-zero rate? Are all the schools properly funded? All the roads nicely paved? Short lines at the Department of Motor Vehicles? The ports all secured?

If this bill passes, then I think we should all take a field trip to Virginia and test the boundaries of what would be considered "lewd or indecent" exposure of underwear. Idiots.
