The more mental testing, the better

I like the idea by House Democrats to have the president tested to see if he was mentally capable of running the country as well as the proposal to require mental testing for S.C. law enforcement officers.

We should insist that all members of the state and federal Supreme Court, Congress, and all federal and state agency heads be tested mentally to see if they are fit to make decisions concerning our lives. They also should be tested for drugs.
