Obama: The Heroin of the Masses

It was Karl Marx that said "religion is the opium of the masses". Different belief system, same result:

Sheriff's deputies and investigators have broken a heroin distribution ring that dished out narcotics across more than half of Sullivan County.

A total of five men and women were arrested Wednesday night following a three-month investigation, during which undercover police purchased decks of heroin from street dealers. Undersheriff Eric Chaboty said the dealers were selling heroin in towns that stretched from Monticello to Livingston Manor.

The alleged dealers were pushing a variety of heroin that they called "Obama." Chaboty said dealers are known to stamp the glassine wax paper that carries the heroin with brand names — like "Black Death" or "Blue Sunshine" — so that users can identify their preferred brands. This drug ring's stamp happened to carry the new president's surname.
