Senator Wentworth claims the reason he leases a Lexus and pays for it out of campaign funds is because it's dangerous to drive on I-35 and a Lexus is a safe car. SAXN points out that there are 17 cars that rated higher in safety tests than the Lexus and some were even (gasp!) mid-priced American cars. The Senator apparently was interviewed by the SAXN while he was driving. Something that the Senator himself thinks ought to be a crime.
Ugh, the news in the Summer totally sucks, yo.
