The People appear to be somewhat interested in a ballot initiative in Washington State. The initiative, #1069, would require that the State modify the state’s seal from a vignette of George Washington with the words “The Seal of the State of Washington 1889” to something a bit more accurate: a tapeworm wearing a three piece suit encircled by the words “Committed to sucking the life blood out of each and every tax payer”

No, really — it’s a real initiative.

If I still lived there, I’d vote for it. It wouldn’t do any good as Washington’s seal can only be changed by a constitutional amendment, not an initiative.
