A/K/A Tommy Chong

I see a movie has been made about the arrest, conviction and jail term served by Tommy Chong (of the comedy duo "Cheech and Chong"). His crime was selling marajuana parapherenalia ("bongs" for you college-educated readers). The War on Drugs seems to be consuming billions of taxpayer dollars, ruining thousands and thousands of lives, packing the prisons and dragging on for decades. Perhaps it is time for a truce in this war. Could we perhaps get a representative from the stoner community to sit down with President Bush and sign some sort of truce? As a US Taxpayer, I would welcome the spending relief. And if I had to put up with a few more zonked convenience store clerks, so be it.
