    You need to sit down for this one folks! Someone just called Diegnan an ‘idiot’. We ACTUALLY had a statewide ballot initiative to forbid the use of the word ‘idiot’ in all official correspondence within the state of New Jersey.
    I am a transplanted New Yorker, and I am REALLY trying to learn to love New Jersey. Politicians like this guy, and the Jets make that very difficult.

    Our government wasting time on an issue this minor makes it difficult to believe that the US is a superpower.

    um.. they’re paper insurance cards. Just fold ’em in half Senator and you’re good to go. Cuts down on the paper waste and potential fraud by giving out extra copies of insurance cards.

    What a grandstanding moron. Way to tackle the real issues, Mr. Assemblyman!

    I’m assuming in NJ you get a certificate for each car. Just put the darn thing in an envelope with the registration in the glove box of the car like we do in Michigan.

    Seriously, I think this politician is just talking to hear himself talk.

    The fact that the N.J. legislature finds the time to concern themselves with the size of the insurance card is a vivid testament to the quality of whom we, the N.J. electorate, has put into office and recently re-elected.

    The state is broke, has the highest property taxes in the nation,is rampant with political corruption and is forcing taxpayers and businesses to leave the state in droves.Rather than address these real issues they attack with vigor the size of the insurance card.

    We deserve what we have – we,the voters, put this mentally challenged gang in Trenton to represent us. A sad commentary.

    Hey Dick,

    Are you sure you’re not describing Louisiana? Ha ha!

    I don’t agree that voters are completely to blame for gov’mint corruption. If a particular candidate has shown himself to be a greedy liar in the past and we keep re-electing the creep, then yes, our bad. But sometimes we only have a choice between horrible and terrible… (Which is how I felt about the last presidential election, yuck.)

    Unfortunately, cushy government seats seem to attract a disproportionately high percentage of shady individuals. More than once I’ve stood in the voter booth and felt like I didn’t have the option of selecting someone with integrity because their name wasn’t on the ballot. I’m betting many of you have been in that same situation…

    Who do we vote for when we have to decide between two known crooks? How can we blame ourselves if we vote for the new guy on the block and he turns out to be a turd later on?

    Plus, no matter who gets elected it’s a given that some of the population will be unhappy with the outcome.

    But voting for the lesser of two evils is better than not voting at all, right? However “lesser” is probably an objective term and open to debate.

    Regardless, I do agree that Diegnan’s efforts would be far better spent on a more significant issue. Just another shining example of how the suits on the Hill are wasting our tax dollars.

    Louisiana may have written the original book but New Jersey now has the unabridged updated version with Governor Corzine as the author and are leaving you guys in the dust.
