Drugs Politics and Musicians
Damn I had just written this whole post and my computer closed all the damn windows, so I'm rewriting this now. I will try and make this post as simple as possible cutting to the chase.
I was just on Blog Catolog a few hours ago where a semi- heated debate about Barrack Obama & drug use were being talked about, ok, cool. Than I read the types of drugs he had used, and was like..... Say What? Alright, so he smoked a lil weed here & there, no big deal, so has President Bill Clinton: (but Bill didn't inhale!)
Apparently Barrack Obama used Marijuana & Cocaine in the past. WTF? Are you kidding me?
Not Guilty-The Beatles ded: Barrack Obama
What is wrong with this picture? Yes, I can see regular ol people and musicians using drugs, NOT a Presdiental hopeful, not someone trying to become the President of the US?

Sure The Beatles used drugs and so did many other musicians, it was widly acceptable in the 60's, right? Hey, alot of great talent have died as a result, but does anyone bat an eyelash? hell no. What makes Obama credible now? How can he write laws and implement them without being a hypocrite? this reaks of hypocricy.
Should he be exempt now, heres a
"Get out of Jail Free card" why? because Obama is running for President of the United states?
silent laugh, or does it depend on your station in life, to what'is acceptable?
No, c'mon he wears a suit, he's a Senator, does this make him believable? he talks huge game, yeah he's "not guilty"....... bullchips!
Look at all the damn people locked up behind drug use....dang! I suppose if they had big bank or running for office they'd be let off too or forgiven.

My question is this, how many times did Barrack use cocaine? was he ever in a hotel room with a prostitue under the influence? How many times did he buy cocaine? Is Obama aquainted with Marion Barry?
To each his own I say, but NOT when it comes to running for President of The United States. Everyday, people get slammed for using drugs and so should a public official, if not more.
He's not off the hook in my books...I don't care what he is trying to sell, I'm not buying it, what a joke.
One last thought, I did think of posting "Rehab" vid but, nahh....lol
comments anyone?
sheesh I believe Barrack Obama is a slick, lying, deviant, don't be fooled people~yep!

Why does Obama's admitted past drug use make him unfit for president? He was young once, too. If you don't think that nearly all of the politicians have dried some form of illegal drug(probably marijuana or cocaine) at some point in their life(probably high school/college), you're a lot more naive than you think. Hell, our current president spent his youth drinkin' and snortin' it up in Texas while avoiding the draft, yet the religious right can't seem to get enough of him.
Reading on, it seems that you have no problem with Bill Clinton's marijuana usage(he inhaled), but are particularly antagonized by Obama admitting to using cocaine in the past. Why? Marijuana is illegal also, and according to the Federal Drug Schedule list, is more dangerous than cocaine. This ignores the facts, but that's not the issue at hand. If Obama's drug usage should ban him from being elected President because of the illegality of it, then the marijuana should be more damning than the cocaine, not vice-versa.
Why make any distinction between drug usage, be it cocaine, marijuana, alcohol, or tobacco? Why, let's go ahead and add pharmaceuticals in there too. These are all drugs, and many of the legal drugs are just as or more damaging or intoxicating than cocaine, including alcohol. If cocaine usage has damned Osama, shouldn't usage of alcohol, caffeine, or strong-painkillers be enough to damn everyone that's used those as well?
Should we expect all public figures to be Supermen? Standing tall, flawless in word and deed, dispensing justice with one hand and wisdom with the other? While that would be great, they are, at best, only human. Admitting to past drug usage is absolutely nothing to worry about in a politician, and I vastly prefer it to the bald-faced lying all the others seem to do.
Hiya Tyler,
what's up? I thought I explained myself nicely in my post on Obama's drug use? Niave? nope not I, ha! I know what people are capable of. If Obama thought he would just sweep this one under the rug and get by, than the people are being niave believing in this crap. Bullchips, and braggin about "buying blow" "whenever he had the chance" makes it ok? Oh, he's reformed now,he's a Senator WTF? What's next? about Clinton I was joking, marijauna is no big deal really and IS accpetable in our current society except for in the eyes of the Government, ie: medical marijuana and personal use no doubt used by half of America in their lives at one time or another. Narcotics are dangerous, hence their name a controlled substance not marijauna but I will not argue that fact at this time.
Secondly who gives a damn about President Bush, I didn't vote for him~
Your reaching there with your alcohol and pain killer use, if people choise to abuse them that IS there decison.
NOT a Presidential hopeful braggin about his substance abuse when he was a youngster, Oh, he is free and clear becuz of his status now?
People want someone they can look up to and trust in. Sure everyone is human subject to mistakes however people in positions of authority of power should set an exanple to others in their behaviors,words and deeds

Sure it may be a little disturbing to hear that a presidential hopeful has experimented with drugs, but to shun them because of it? Isn't that almost like assuming that people can't change?
Hiya Jaime~
Jaime Yes people can change and they do everyday. The problem is the governement, cops and the correctional system does not look at it that way. ahh let em all off they're reformed, (citizens) bullshit. The systen is biased towards the people, but are willing to look away to this fact on a Presidential hopeful or People of Power? hypocrisy I tell you Obama is full of straight CON crap. I'm sure he is a pleasant person, highly intelligent. but the dude is a fast talkin bullshitter. I swear some people need to take life course 101 and live on the streets and see the real deal..
thanx for posting
