I really hate every time someone asks this dickhead about legalizing weed he laughs. That pisses me off. Instead of making jokes he should be granting amnesty to people doing life for LSD.



Obama makes LSD joke in White House

'He thought the neck of his guitar was an electric snake'


(BLOG.SFGATE) — President Obama knocked down TWO presidential firsts Sunday at the 2013 Kennedy Center Honors reception at the White House — and one included the Bay Area’s own cultural treasure and Kennedy Center honoree, Carlos Santana.

In his opening remarks about one of rock’s seminal guitarists, Obama became the first president to make an LSD joke in the White House — in talking about Santana’s ground-breaking performance at Woodstock. Here’s what Obama — a Choom Gang veteran who was no stranger to mind-altering drugs in his youth — had to say about Santana, according to the official White House transcript:

“When a 22-year-old Carlos Santana took the stage at Woodstock, few people outside his hometown of San Francisco knew who he was. And the feeling was mutual. Carlos was in such a — shall we say — altered state of mind that he remembers almost nothing about the other performers. (Laughter and applause.) He thought the neck of his guitar was an electric snake. (Laughter.)”

Such an ass. America's "cool president" turned out to be anything but.
Can't even come up with a little sympathy for the victims of the ongoing Drug War, expands raids, no progression on IV HR or reform for the insanity of scheduled drug production quotas and patent protection infighting leading to shortages of even generic medicines...
Or as you said, he could make just the symbolic gesture of extending the Presidential pardon to a few of the non-violent drug offenders locked away for life...

Imagine what "ObamaCare" could have been if it had been comprehensive drug reform molded into a national health care system. But America is too prudish and puritanical to consider anything so universally progressive and communally minded...
Be we can dream!
