This will not sta-a-nd, man! … This … *agress-ion*… will not… sta-a-a-a-nd!

Thankfully others NOT in Udall’s mold are also beginning to come around on this.

No, it really couldn’t. People “smog” out cars when they smoke pot, because it gets them higher off of it. People don’t do that with cigarette smoke. It burns too hot and would hurt more than it would help.

There is a huge difference in how people smoke the two drugs above. There’s a reason people don’t smoke tobacco from a bong.

It was a joke Esthier.

Sorry Ed, but the last few seconds of the ad don’t cross any line. Udall had to be smokin’ weed to make the “Department of Peace” proposal!!

Hilarious !!

The last few seconds of the ad do cross the line. I don’t know what Udall’s position on marijuana legalization is, but I’d bet that Freedoms Watch doesn’t know, either. Clearly an implication is made with that, and even though it’s funny, it isn’t really fair, either.

Since when? Unfair? What a load of horse hockey. The Dept of Peace can only be associated with old hippies who flashed a “Peace” sign everywhere they went, smoked dope and made “free love” during VietNam because that was the kind of “Peace” they espoused. “Make Love, Not War”, remember, Ed?

Crossing a line? I don’t think so. If Udall can’t stand this parody of his positions, then he is a bigger baby than anyone else thought possible. But then, he’s a Dhimmicrat, so I repeat myself.

P.S.
legalize it!

Uh,welcome to politics, Captain Ed!

Not at all Ed. That could have been… oh my gracious… cigarette smoke which liberals are much more horrified by than marijuana.

Oops, I guess it was wacky weed smoke after all, dang!! Liberals and old hippies breath a sigh of relief that it wasn’t that awful cigarette smoke.

Mark is driving the Mystery Machine baby…

Man: You wanna get high man?
Udall: Does Howdy Doody got wooden Balls man?

The Udall proposal sounds like a parody of an old POGO comic strip (itself a parody), where one of the characters on a similar mission was going to “ram peace down their throats.”

And I’m always leery when someone uses the word “clearly,” which the mainstream media did ad nauseum when they said that “clearly” Obama wasn’t calling Palin a pig.

It’s all Nuance. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.
