White House Sends Money To Fight Pot Growing

What's all this I hear about fighting pots that grow? If we smash all the growing pots, there won't be any left for big houseplants! Plant owners have enough expenses without having to murder their pots just for growing!

What? Oh--never mind.

More WOD stupidity. Legalize it. So soon we forget the damage alcohol prohibition did, and the WOD is doing the same.

This, if nothing else, proves that this administration is completely out of touch.

If that piece of trash Walters' lips are moving, assume he's lying.

(snip)Take a trip and never leave the farm!

All good things gotta come to an end,
And it's the same with the wildwood weed.
One day this feller from Washington came by,
And he spied it and turned white as a sheet.
Then they dug and they burned,
And they burned and they dug,
And they killed all our cute little weeds.
Then they drove away,
We just smiled and waved ..........
Sittin' there on that sack of seeds!

Wildwood Weed ~ Jim Stafford

I'd rather see any funds spent on border security than this.

If they want to destroy all the marijuana crops, they should just drop industrial hemp pollen all around those areas.

That'll make the stuff worthless and make next years seeds worthless. Should even destroy most of the indoor operations.

What a diabolical plan.

Why didn't "lying" Anslinger ever think of that?

They would lose their minds if they knew what grows wild on the banks of rivers in Nebraska.

That $2.2 million would sure come in handy for national security purposes. For some reason I'm just not nearly as concerned about a pot grower compared to terrorists. Guess I just don't have my priorities in order.

(from article) "The problem is getting worse," said Rep. Devin Nunes, R-Visalia. "There are so many mountains and valleys and peaks."

Well here is 2.2 million that is going to be wasted on a losing battle. They probably came up with this great idea while talking over drinks and smoking cigarettes.

Are you suggesting that at sometime in the future - the U.S. might not have enough money to fight a war against tokers? (gasp)

So are we going to have more pot watchers than border watchers? It's more important to throw some kid in jail for a joint, then throwing and illegal alien in the joint for illegal entry to America. I think W needs to get his priorities straight.

"The local officials are trying to nip this before someone gets killed," Nunes said.

A simpler, less expensive, more sane way to make sure no one gets killed over this: stop the war on marijuana. Legalize it.
