You knew this was coming. I did anyway. From JWF: and the Washington Post:
It was only a matter of time before someone combined a certain memorable image of a young future president with a jokey twist on his campaign slogan ... to come up with a message that Barack Obama definitely did not approve.
The folks at the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws got there first. For their annual conference poster, they took an old photo of cool-dude college freshman Obama puffing away -- on a regular cigarette, mind you -- and tweaked it just ever so slightly to fit their message: "Yes We Cannabis."
They didn't tweak it too much. The image of Obama smoking a spliff, or lamely pretending to smoke a spliff is real. Good example for the kids retard.

This is where I part way with most of my right-leaning brethren. I fully support the controlled legalization of marijuana. We need stiffer sentences on people committing crimes under the influence of controlled substances (including the legal ones). I'm not saying marijuana is a good thing. But it seems to me that for all practical purposes it combines the mind-affecting attributes of alcohol with the lung-fucking attributes of tobacco.
I think a lot of us on the right feel the same, Nick.

While I might agree with your take on the effects of marijuana vs, alcohol, I still don't favor legalizing it. For the same reason I don't like the lottery. Too many people who shouldn't be spend money on pot would spend money on pot. You can get stupid drunk for $2. If you legalize pot, and the government taxes the hell out of it, it's going to cost you at least $20 to get high. Is that what you want? Really? No one needs to know.
