		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Tommy Chong and Cheech Marin are actually both health nuts who don’t do drugs themselves if i remember right. So that’s all natural stupid right there. 

forged rite on June 11, 2007 at 2:52 PM&lt;/blockquote&gt;

They were both amateur body builders, but both had been strongly pro-pot throughout the time that they worked together, and that was not the only illicit chemical either had ingested. I think you&#039;d have a hard time getting Cheech Marin to be seen in the same place as Tommy nowadays, as one has changed his worldview where the other has not.

This wasn&#039;t scripted at all, nooooo...the reporter let&#039;s the guest ask HER the tough questions? Yeah, that&#039;s always the way news works.

No, this was a prepared disinformation campaign meant to remind the viewers of the evils of the administration, veiled behind the sensationalism of the Hilton bazaar.

Her jail sentence stemmed from a parole violation after not simply a DUI, but a series of failures to obey judges orders. She was already on a suspended sentence as well as a suspended license when she was caught again, under the influence again. So the &quot;late for court&quot; line is a lie, Tommy.

&lt;blockquote&gt;Brewer: &quot;...she repeatedly broke her probation and drove without a license. And then the judge decided...&quot;

Chong: &quot;Whoa&quot;

Brewer: &quot;You know, she&#039;s thumbing her nose at the law.&quot;

Chong: &quot;so she should go to jail for that?&quot;

Brewer: &quot;you don&#039;t think she should have gone to jail for it?&quot;

Chong: &quot;Absolutely not.&quot;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Drug-induced or natural, that&#039;s some heavyweight stupid.</description>

		<description>Video seems to be hung up at the moment, but if the title is accurate.... WTF?!  Yeah, it&#039;s us GOPers who are obsessed with this story.. riiiiiiiiight.  I&#039;d like to see a poll done of people who buy the tabloid magazines (including Inquirer, People, Star, etc. etc.)  I don&#039;t care how irresponsible this sounds, but I would put on money on the fact that 70%+ of those who have a political identification and buy this crap (and watch shows like Entertainment Tonight, etc.) are libs.  Does anyone think I&#039;m wrong?</description>

When this first started, I told my wife that &quot;she who will not be named&quot; would turn this into a media boon. She&#039;ll get a clothing line, a perfume, or some other benefit. She pointed out that &quot;she who will not be named&quot; already has a perfume. So it begins with Baba Wawa and will end with? Oprah? Dr Phil? Another reality show?

Tommy Chong is another one of those celebrities who should just shut the hell up and do his act.</description>

<p>When this first started, I told my wife that &#8220;she who will not be named&#8221; would turn this into a media boon. She&#8217;ll get a clothing line, a perfume, or some other benefit. She pointed out that &#8220;she who will not be named&#8221; already has a perfume. So it begins with Baba Wawa and will end with? Oprah? Dr Phil? Another reality show?</p>
<p>Tommy Chong is another one of those celebrities who should just shut the hell up and do his act.</p>

		<description>The paper here runs a little celebrity sound bite every day.  I asked an editor I know that works there why they do it.  &quot;They&#039;re inane, it&#039;s like they haven&#039;t two brains cells to rub together&quot;, I said.  &quot;Exactly&quot;, she said.

As for why they brought Tommy Chong on?  Two possibilities I can think of and they tend to coincide.  One, it&#039;s fun to put dim bulb celebrities on show so everyone can have a laugh.  Two, it makes the news folks look bright in comparison.

Having Chong on almost completely distracted me from noticing that the interviewer was barely holding her own in the debate.  But I&#039;ll give her the benefit of the doubt and think she was being gracious to her guest.</description>

		<description>When did the GOP get control of the media away from the Jews?  At the last world domination meeting I was at, they said nothing about this.</description>

		<description>I just invited Tommy, Janeane Garofolo and Tim Robbins up to my school to talk about the thermodynamic solubility of carbon nanotubes.

It&#039;s not like they&#039;ll know what they&#039;re talking about here, either.</description>
