GOP legislator busted for pot after saying Democrats cater to gay pot-smoking Guatemalan gamblers

Robert Watson, Republican Minority Leader
of the Rhode Island State House
 

You can't can't make this stuff up:

Earlier this year, Rhode Island House Minority Leader Robert A. Watson (R) garnered attention when he made insensitive remarks about the General Assembly?s work at a meeting of the Greater Providence Chamber of Commerce. Watson stated, ?I suppose if you?re a gay man from Guatemala who gambles and smokes pot, you probably think that we?re onto some good ideas here.? He was quickly forced to apologize.

Yet last Friday Watson?s bigoted comment took an ironic twist. The state lawmaker was pulled over at a routine police checkpoint in East Haven, Connecticut. Police quickly arrested him when he appeared to be driving under the influence and possessing marijuana.

I wonder what shoe will be next to drop. After all, he's already one for four.
