Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.

Dirty Greek - Las Vegas Mayor Endorses Gin To Fourth Graders
  Humor : Las Vegas Mayor Endorses Gin To Fourth Graders

Meh...
"Las Vegas Mayor Oscar Goodman told a group of fourth graders on Monday that if he was marooned on a desert island the one thing he would want to have with him is a bottle of gin.

And when a student quizzed Goodman about his hobbies he replied that "drinking" was one of them, said Mackey Elementary School Principal Kamala Washington, who was present for the mayor's visit.

Goodman was unapologetic for his comments that came during his visit to the elementary school in North Las Vegas.

"I'm the George Washington of mayors. I can't tell a lie. If they didn't want the answer the kid shouldn't have asked the question," Goodman said. "It's me, what can I do?"
I mean, what's worse - drinking as a legal adult or lying to children as a government official? What's so wrong with the mayor - especially of Las Vegas - drinking and telling kids he likes to drink?
