Bush's cocaine accusations trumps Clinton's weed use!
Edited on Thu May-29-08 04:54 PM by Tim4319
At least Bill Clinton has admitted to smoking weed! Although he said he didn't inhale. However, he did admit that he tried it.

Bush, on the other hand, does not recall whether or not he used cocaine. Maybe he was so drunk that he didn't remember using coke?

I don't know!?!?

<<snip>>

Writes McClellan:"'The media won't let go of these ridiculous cocaine rumors,' I heard Bush say. 'You know, the truth is I honestly don't remember whether I tried it or not. We had some pretty wild parties back in the day, and I just don't remember.'

"I remember thinking to myself, How can that be? How can someone simply not remember whether or not they used an illegal substance like cocaine? It didn't make a lot of sense."

1. I've been pretty drunk in my younger 'bulletproof' days.
A number of times.
If I'd ever snorted coke, I'm pretty sure I'd remember it.

2. He said he didn't inhale and I just don't understand the hate and propaganda against weed
I have crohn's disease and marijuana is a GODSEND. There is no other medicine that comes close. And it sucks that I have to go through the black market. I dont even have a dealer here since im off college and I suffer because of it.

6. Sorry to hear that!
Hopefully, President Obama will sign into law a federal medical marijuana bill.

7. Thank you and I'm hoping for Obama too -- check out medicinal michelle videos on youtube
She has the same thing only in a worse state and marijuana has allowed her to get off all damaging drugs and have a normal life. Of course, she lives in Canada and has a license.

15. Hopefully whom ever is the next president will help out there
I think Obama and Hillary would help - McCain, well he's too tied to big business to care about the little guy.

My partner also sees a Chinese MD for herbs and it has helped him tremendously (he eats a strict chinese diet too).

5. My bad!
I had to assist my 3 year old with a -- ironically enough -- "Dora the Explorer" DVD. I posted this before I read it.

8. I honestly didn't really care about either one.
I'm not really in a position to judge people on past drug use. :P

13. I said the same thing in a past thread, but ..
We certainly can judge hypocritical right wing fascists who ruin other peoples' lives for their drug use, while claiming to "not remember" their own experimentation because the parties were too "wild"!!
