David Remnick wrote a million or so words about Barack Obama in the New Yorker this week, and several of those words were about the loco weed. And what did The POTUS say about the pot for us? “As has been well documented, I smoked pot as a kid, and I view it as a bad habit and a vice, not very different from the cigarettes that I smoked as a young person up through a big chunk of my adult life. I don’t think it is more dangerous than alcohol.”
Completely and utterly OT, but for some reason, over the last week EVERY TIME I open a Wonkette or Happynicetime link on my iPad, the AppStore app launches and tries to get me to play one of the advertised games. It's really aggravating--I want to read the snark, not play games.
Ok, thanks for letting me rant out, and if I ever get my hands on those devious advertisement programmers, I'm gonna do terrible things to them, with votes.
Dumb question because Derpy Caller, but how does decriminalizing something = <i>imposing more control of Americans&rsquo; economic and civic life</i>?
I wondered the same thing, and while I can&#039;t pretend to know, I think maybe we&#039;re just supposed to unhinge our brains and swallow the whole thing, like a snake eating a pig. If you try to make sense of it, you might taste the pig. Or your head could explode. Of course, believing two completely contradictory thoughts at the same time isn&#039;t a problem for wingnuts - it&#039;s how they identify each other in the wild.

HMm, let&#039;s see - alcohol - mood swings, depression, liver disease, hypertension, mental illness, hypocardia, bowls stop functioning, delerium tremens, death marijuana - makes you lazy

<i>Is Dave there?</i>
While &quot;high on the pot&quot; I&#039;m not particularly dangerous.
Except, of course, when I forget to light a match afterwards. That can be <i>deadly</i>.

He always struck me as a chewin&#039; tabacky man. <i>Give us this day our daily pinch between our cheek and gum</i>.
Excellent. I wasn&#039;t a Wakeman when I first read this, Squire.
He does <i>appear</i> to be the most thoughtful prez we&#039;ve ever had. It does help me keep sane.
So the half-time air wasn&#039;t sweet perfume?
And Howe!
