Virginia's Seat of Government gets Embar-assed

Virginia's "Droopy Drawers" bill turned into a political wedgie for its supporters, who've now dropped their anti-low-cut-pants legislation. The bill would have spanked kids with a $50 fine for wearing pants that exposed their underwear in "a lewd or indecent manner." The Virginia House passed the bill but a Senate panel killed the plan in an unanimous vote. Senators said the bill was embarassing the Commonwealth -- so many cracks about it in the media. No word on how the plumbers' lobby came in on this bill. (CNN)
