Gingrich calls for more aggressive drug policy

Yes because prohibition makes everything you're prohibiting magically disappear, right 1920's America?

Did you consult Rush Limbaugh?

Yeah, when I heard him giving his little talk, I was talking back to my screen with language that would get me banned from here. Douche bag is one of the kinder things I called him while listening to him. Thank crappy economics I don't have to listen to T.V. political ads this upcoming season, if it wasn't for that I might throw something large and heavy through the set. Yes siree Neuter, turn up the heat and seal the release valve closed on the pressure cooker. That will make things SO much safer in the "kitchen".

Sorry, newt, that won't score you many points.

For someone who has a degree in history the Newt certainly doesn't seem to know much about it! Does he not realize that organized crime got its major toehold in American society when there was a prohibition on the manufacture and distribution of alcohol? The legalization of drugs, marijuana in particular, would take the control out of the hands of criminals and place it under government control. Weed causes very few problems, the problems are all caused by the vast amounts of money that are involved in its transfer from the source down to the user. Remember Santaya Newt, "those who don't heed history are doomed to repeat it" or, I believe Franklin who defined stupidity as, "doing the same thing over and over while expecting different results."

He is involved in the pharmaceutical and the private prison industries, which would see their profits soar if penalties were drastically increased for marijuana. THAT is his motivation! His only motivation for his stance is MONEY!

Do these parents want their children to be incarcerated for years so that they will be a good example for other children with a penchant for independence? Not likely.

Ok kids, its just fine if you wanna kill your liver with booze. All those side effects from pills? Don't worry, the f.d.a. is here to protect us. But never, ever, smoke a harmless plant. The government says it's dangerous and they would never lie to you.

Newt Gingrich's past and present speaks for it self and proves you can't polish a turd.

New rule: Congress shall not vote nor shall the President sign any bill unless a drug screen and etoh screen is done just before the actions and the Congress and President are observed until the bill is either voted on or signed.

Newt Genrich took on drugs today and social programs. He is going after the easy targets. That's what they always do, go after poor people. The unemployed are poor, or soon to be poor people. Easy targets, while increasing the profits for the companies, which will get the contracts to do the drug tests.

Poor people will be judged by the quality of their pee. Reagan-omics was often times called, 'trickle down economics. Piss on the poor'. Who would have thought it could get worse? Now they want to demand the pee of the poor, while putting government funded profit into corporations, who get the contracts to check the pee. Slick move. Cha-ching! Drug companies will make profit, no matter who is, or is not using drugs! Cha-ching indeed!

Drugs are not what's causing the problems in America. If anything it's the 'cash cow' that keeps on giving. It's even a 'cash cow' for private prisons. Cha-ching. They are justifying their profits, with spin. They are spinning people back into thinking draconian laws against ordinary Americans as just.

The 'war on cannabis', 'IS' an un-just war on American soil and should be ended! Not put of the backs of the poor!

What our 'real' President's had to say about cannabis hemp.

"Hemp is of first necessity to the wealth & protection of the country."
- Thomas Jefferson, U.S. President

"Make the most you can of the Indian Hemp seed and sow it everywhere."
- George Washington, U.S. President

"We shall, by and by, want a world of hemp more for our own consumption."
- John Adams, U.S. President

Real Presidents!!

So, what's that clown smoking?

I bet he smoked marijuana every day. It's always the ones that come out in the public and announce they're against something, find out later they're doing it.
