CNN is all about bad-mouthing the new CO maryjane laws and

attempting to stoke fear into parents.

All morning CNN has been playing every 'pot is bad" (and that's the word they're using for it) card they can play. Kids are getting kicked out of school. Kids' IQs are suffering. Kids are getting addicted.

Not a single word about the positive aspects of decriminalizing/legalizing. Now all of a sudden there is "Big Marijuana" and pot-smoking is "an epidemic that President Obama needs to address". Marijuana cartels, blah, blah, blah... It's worse than alcohol. This all by Paul Chabot of Coalition for Drug Free California.

Reefer madness!!! Tell the children!!1!1!

it's a HOOT! I caught it on cable a couple of years ago.

And regarding CNN......
well, if anyone still listened to anything CNN had to say, I'd be concerned, but since they are competing with FOX for journalistic joke of the country, I'm not that worried.
