Sen. Nancy Riley, R-Tulsa, was busted last week for passing notes to Sen. Kathleen Wilcoxson, R-Oklahoma City.
Senate President Pro Tempore Cal Hobson,
D-Lexington, observed Riley passing the
note during debate for the governor’s cigarette
tax proposal. Following acknowledgement of her
action, Riley was asked to read the note before
the entire Senate.
“Oh my God,” read Riley’s note, “Jim (Reynolds, R-Oklahoma City), is so hot. I think I’m going to ask him to go to the pro-family rally this weekend, or maybe to the mall.”
Following the praise of Reynolds, the note
turned to inquiries about Wilcoxson’s weekend
plans, specifically whether or not she was going
to get her hair done. The message closed with a
brief criticism of the dress worn by Sen. Penny
Williams, D-Tulsa.
Riley said she was “totally embarrassed” by
the public reading and vowed to criticize Hobson’s
hair in future notes.
