"Other states that have approved [similar bills] have seen a sharp increase in the youth smoking marijuana."

Do reporters ever ask questions anymore, or do they just automatically swallow the bullsh*t?

Joe McGeeney, Elks State Drug Awareness chairman for Maryland, Delaware and the District of Columbia, said he was disappointed in the governor's decision to sign the bill and vowed to help repeal it. "It's sending the wrong message to our kids that it's OK to use because there is medicinal powers," he said. "Other states that have approved [similar bills] have seen a sharp increase in the youth smoking marijuana."

His e-mail address is mcgeeney@comcast.net if anyone is interested in asking him how he came up with his stats.

Put it on the shelf next to Walters' "30 times more potent" lie.
