Democratic National Committee chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz, for whom alcohol companies are a top-five political donor, said that she opposes marijuana legalization because she feels it might lead more people down the road to heroin abuse.

If she thinks marijuana is heroin, she's pretty ignorant and should get herself an education. It's more like she is listening to those who are lobbying against legalization so they can sell more of their own medicine.

I'm damned tired of hearing about what might happen and would be more interested in hearing what did happen. With her kind of thinking, it's best not to get up in the morning because you might break a law you didn't know about.

Wonder if she's trying to shill for those alcohol companies. Thing is, a lot of people who smoke weed drink plenty too so I don't see why it would matter to them.

And sure, smoke a few joints one day, overdose on heroin the next. Common sense slippery slop notafallacy logic.

There ain't no "might" about it.

And it's the job of Debbie Wasserman Schultz and the Democrats (and Reince Priebus and the Republicans) to make damn sure it stays that way ...

Well, as my dad used to say, "I'm darned tired of being protected from myself."

perhaps we should stop allowing our soldiers to protect the poppy fields first?

DWS looks like the "after" pictures on those "don't do meth" ads.

Joseph Stalin couldn't have said it better. Big Mother will keep you safe.

Debbie has gazed into her crystal ball and has seen YOUR future... sorry toddlers, deal with your life threatening seizures some other way, it's for your own good you potential slaves to the hobby-Horse.

I wonder why she's still working with being able to see the future and all...

Prescription pain killers are the gateway to heroin abuse.

Naw, she just thinks you should have a post-birth abortion of any such defective toddlers.

... Mother, should I run for president?
Mother, should I trust the government?
Mother, will they put me in the firing line?
Ooooh aah, is it just a waste of time?

Hush now, baby, baby, don't you cry
Mama's gonna make all of your nightmares come true
Mama's gonna put all of her fears into you
Mama's gonna keep you right here under her wing
She won't let you fly but she might let you sing
Mama's gonna keep baby cosy and warm

Ooooh, babe, ooooh, babe, ooooh, babe
Of course Mama's gonna help build the wall ...

... Mama's gonna wait up till you get in
Mama will always find out where you've been
Mamma's gonna keep baby healthy and clean

Ooooh, babe, ooooh, babe, ooooh, babe
You'll always be a baby to me ...

Ixnay! Ixnay! Prohibition is only for mundanes.

The spice must flow ... (after all, that prison-industrial complex ain't gonna fill itself ...)
