Should Female Lobbyists Wear The Burqa?

Will we soon see the enforcement of a burqa law on K Street?
Apparently not only is the far right group now commonly known as the Republican Party trying to impose Taliban-like laws and policies on women in the United States (limiting access to contraception and abortion, opposing paid sick leave, maternity leave, and fair pay, promising to repeal minimum wage laws and gut social security, questioning the need for insurance coverage of breast exams, maternity care and other women's health concerns, for example) they are now acting more and more like the men in ultra-orthodox religious societies. They've decided women are so dangerous and tempting to men that House Minority Leader John Boehner has, according to Erin Bradford writing in The Hill, "instructed male Republicans to avoid getting drunk and partying with female lobbyists or even meeting privately with them."
