Stephen Colbert's Latest Outrageous Attack on Medical Marijuana

He just can't help himself. It's hilarious, of course, but it's disturbing to consider that Colbert's facetious rants really aren't any more absurd than the typical government propaganda that emerges from the Drug Czar's office. Colbert is joking, but even if he weren't, we could at least stop paying for cable. This garbage, on the other hand is paid for with our tax dollars whether we like it or not. And it isn’t nearly as funny, either.

Drug War Issues Medical Marijuana

Yes.

It's satire. I was just playing along with my subject line. He's on our side.

Marijuana=Arrested Development

Your post is not only difficult to understand, it is illogical and grammatically incorrect. Go back to school and spend some time learning how to deal with your problems.

For those with the intelligence to follow this thread:

Colbert is a comedian. Nothing he said was intended to be the truth.

Marijuana is not the issue. The actual reason for pot laws is to provide the government with a methodology for the repression of individual freedom and to gain power over the citizens it is supposed to represent. We can argue ad nauseum about the effects, characteristics and ingredients of marijuana, but sadly are missing the point. Marijuana law is about power and its exercise.

"He who joyfully marches in rank and file
has already earned my contempt.
He has been given a large brain by mistake,
since for him the spinal cord would suffice." -- Albert Einstein

Wow?

Like, what are you smoking, man? Must be some righteous weed for you to produce such a reasoned and well thought out comment... Anyway, I have no clue what you are talking about. I don't think Einstein would either. Reads like something from near the bottom end of the brain stem.
