One thing the drug warriors have in common with the global warmists is that every word they utter is a lie. But whatever this is, it was written by a delusional idiot whose reading and writing comprehension is below the 3rd grade level.

LOL, non sequitur red herring leaps of faith does not a pundit be.

Contrary to the talking heads on the telly.

“The faithful still claim that crime in Portugal has gone done since their nation went soft on drugs. But what’s gone down is their economy, an economic basket case. “

To smoke weed is to willingly be a slave.

Here’s the article the blogger is attacking. Lots of facts, from that ultra conservative AP. BTW, you won’t find this article at the blog site.

The Cato Institute is backed by George Soros? Somebody prove that- little hard to believe really no matter what you think of libertarians.

If they legalize pot in the US... I am opening a snack franchise called “Munchies are US”... all employees will be dressed as munchkins and will breathe Helium when they speak. Our menus will be blurry... just for fun. Sometimes we will play the White Album or The Wall backwards for effect.

Well, I am certain every conservative would agree that social behavior can best be shaped by the State. That is why all conservatives support Michelle Obama and the Progressives’ attempt to finally win the War on Obesity. /s

Husband bought some safes at a government auction; they had been confiscated by authorities in a drug bust. Got them home, opened them and there were some snippets of marijuana in the bottom of one (just residue), and some residue of white powder in the other one. Ah, maybe it was just where some potpourri and powdered sugar got spilled in them. All perfectly innocent I am sure.

Drug-induced deaths in Portugal climbed to 314 in 2007 - significantly more than the 280 deaths recorded when decriminalization started in 2001.

Significant? Seriously? The difference between 280 and 314, especially when not controlling for population and immigration variations, strikes me as completely statistically insignificant. Two arbitrarily chosen data points varied by what? 12 percent? Proof of absolutely nothing. What about 2008? What about 2003? Can you demonstrate a trend? Ever studied statistics? Sure doesn't seem so.
