		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Dope smoking, hears voices he assumes are God&#039;s, and has his finger on the nuclear trigger!

We wonder why the rest of the world is afraid of him?&lt;/blockquote&gt;

This is a bit of an exaggeration.  Other world leaders aren&#039;t afraid of them, they simply do not respect him for the same reason I don&#039;t.

My chief problem with Bush is that he&#039;s a terrible role model.  He&#039;s a complete failure in business, he screwed off not just in college, but in the air force, and throughout his entire adult life, and he still became president, simply because 1/2 of the United States thinks that you can inherit competence.

Bush exemplifies that anybody can be president, as long as they are born in a wealthy family that is politically well connected, and they don&#039;t have to do any work at all to accomplish it.  Bush hasn&#039;t done an honest days work in his entire life, and not only that, he&#039;s squandered all his time so he&#039;s not even intellectually formidable.  He&#039;s basically a wealthy spoiled brat.  To think one of those nitwits that sits in coffee houses all day bitching about the world when they&#039;ve never participated in it is controlling the US is a bit vexing to me.  Go to Boulder Colorado and go to a coffee shop and you&#039;ll see what I mean.

&lt;blockquote&gt;At the least... To smoke dope he had to illegally possess it! I know people that were convicted for illegal possession of dope who can&#039;t even vote for president. Yet this guy can run and be appointed president.  Why don&#039;t we hear from the real patriots on this one?&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Because nationalists run this country now, not patriots.</description>

		<description>OK, I&#039;m confused here.

So, it&#039;s not wrong to use drugs, although the Republican party is the main party supporting the war on drugs and is also the same party that pushed for and got mandatory drug sentencing, and is the same party that coined the phrase &quot;just say no&quot; (ironic coming from the wife of a Hollywood actor), and it&#039;s OK to send some guy to prison for 15 years for doing crack, and cocaine is fine to use as long as you don&#039;t admit to the people who are voting for you that you&#039;ve used illicit drugs in the past?

I this is why &quot;liberals&quot; consider Republicans to be hypocrites, I believe.  Wouldn&#039;t it have been better for Bush to say he had used drugs, and then &lt;i&gt;if illict drugs are so bad&lt;/i&gt; explain why it was wrong to use illicit drugs?  Wouldn&#039;t that have been the honest thing to do?

There was a big stink made of Clinton&#039;s use of marijuana.  If the issue was to dissuade children from using illicit drugs, shouldn&#039;t at least some of the blame rest with the people that asked Clinton to come clean about his drug usage?

And if illicit drug usage isn&#039;t an issue, why did the Republican campaign team make it one with Clinton?

And incidentally, isn&#039;t it somewhat unfair that Bush can use illegal drugs and not be held accountable when others are held accountable, especially since he runs the executive branch?  There is a Republican majority in congress right now - if using marijuana is OK for the president to use, and not be fired, shouldn&#039;t it be OK for me to use, and keep my job even if I fail a drug test?  Shouldn&#039;t my competency at my job be the determining factor in keeping my job?

What I find so disgusting about politics in general is the pervasive attitude of do what I say, not do what I do.  I expect the people making the laws to follow them and if they can&#039;t follow them, to face the same penalties that I would.

Every congressmen should be drug tested.  That&#039;s resonable, isn&#039;t it?</description>

		<description>I&#039;m in favor of marijuana legalization, Rich.  There is a difference between favoring something being legal, and actively promoting the thing itself.  And I specifically mentioned children, who absolutely should &lt;em&gt;not&lt;/em&gt; be smoking pot.  Adults can do what they like.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;It couldn&#039;t possibly be that while he didn&#039;t have a problem trying marijuana, he realizes that it has a tendency to make people become lazy, and doesn&#039;t want to promote it by admitting to having tried it.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Hehe, the absurdity of that one.

I know a few pot users.  Two are engineers, an MIT graduate, and ASIC designer, a patent attorney, a speech pathologist, and a DSP algorithm designer.

Isn&#039;t it amazing that pot is prety much legalized in California, and in fact alll drugs are at least tolerated in California, yet somehow, California is the largest economy in the United States and the 10th largest economy in the world?

Must be because everybody is so lazy there.

Want to outlaw a bad drug?  Get rid of alcohol, it makes you fat and stupid.</description>
