Malcolm Wallop, the Republican former Senator of Wyoming, got elected in 1976 partly because of a memorable political ad he ran of a cowboy packing a portable toilet strapped to the rear of his horse, allegedly the result of a federal regulation.

I can’t tell you how many times I have seen people—who apparently have no problem blacking out, puking in a toilet bowl, and hooking up with utter strangers—shudder with horror and righteous indignation when someone mentions smoking weed.
