Yesterday, when laying out House Bill 126, which would make salvia divinorum a controlled substance, State Rep. Charles "Doc" Anderson (R-Waco) and witnesses testifying for the bill duped the House Committee on Criminal Jurisprudence by showing committee members a YouTube video of someone preparing to give driving lessons after smoking the substance; the video, it turns out, was from a humor site and not actually something from real life.

Here is the video.
