Politcal Blogger To Mark the Opening of the 2008 Legislative Season With “Ridiculous” Protest
If you want a cleaner, more responsive state government, Jason Scott wants you to sign his stomach. As part of a package of events to demonstrate support for various open government initiatives currently being considered by the Delaware Legislature this season, Mr. Scott is asking people to sign his “public body” petition to help make the Delaware Legislature a “Public Body.” It is a gesture that Scott readily admits is ridiculous.
“Of course it is ridiculous,” said a shirtless Scott, marker in hand “but no more ridiculous than the fact General Assembly has exempted itself from the state’s Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) by claiming that it is not a public body.”
“If this is not a public body, then this is not a nipple.” Scott said pointing to his nipple with a magic marker.

Do you think Celia will pick up this press release? In the event that she does she might call me and give me 45 minutes to respond so if you have any good talking points to leave in the comments sections I’d be in your debt.

Sign my body to help make the General Assembly a public body at 1:50 pm in front of Leg Hall. It will be a record High 67 degrees is, so God must favor this undertaking.
