Ummm. maybe they saw the light, realized it was high time to honor an African
American, decided to right a wrong, and all that good stuff. That would reflect
good on them.
Maybe.

Either that, or: maybe they looked up who's the next prez after Ford, and found
it was His Leftie Cluelessness Jimmy "I didn't inhale" Carter. Then, from the
lowest admiral to SECNAV up to POTweeTUS, they all had a cow. A herd of cows.
And they decided it was an urgent priority to take action.
Nyah.


Ummm?

Dov



Mmmmm...ya Dov...Carter...graduate of the Naval Academy! Who announced “I
support legislation amending Federal law to eliminate all Federal criminal
penalties for the possession of up to one ounce of marijuana.”

Try Clinton who said, “When I was in England, I experimented with marijuana a
time or two, and I didn’t like it. I didn’t inhale and never tried it again,”.

Apparently he preferred it baked in his brownies...
