Stone Cold Politics

The website celebstoner.com recently endorsed Obama for president-- no surprise, given some of his past statements:

    In a 2007 interview, Obama stated: “When I was a kid I inhaled frequently. That was the point.”  

    Speaking to Northwestern University students in 2004, Obama declared: “The War on Drugs has been        an utter failure. We need to rethink and decriminalize our marijuana laws.”

    In a letter to a constituent in 2006, Obama wrote: “I am aware of the argument that legalizing marijuana     would make the drug more ‘controlled’ or safer, and that it may curb the violence associated with the        sale of an illegal substance. I also appreciate that many physicians believe that medicinal marijuana can     be helpful to some patients.”
