What is this supposed to mean?
It's 5pm on 10/19/09 and the Drudge Report has a headline re the Obama administration's directive to the feds not to arrest pot users in states that have legalized it.
Only question: the headline appears directly above a picture of the Prez standing with a bunch of school children.
Now, whether you agree with the policy or not, what purpose did Drudge have in featuring a photo that has absolutely nothing to do with the substance of the news report directly below the headline?

Obviously they want it to appear as if Obama is encouraging school children to smoke marijuana, even though that is clearly not his intention.
I'm so tired of politics in this country, and I am only 20.

Maybe Obama is encouraging the youth by helping keep their parents out of jail

Well in addition to Obama not being a Native Born Citizen he is using secret code to say he is a pot head and was a major drug pusher in his youth with an extensive criminal record. He used to get little kids like that hooked all the time. The pied piper of drugs.

How many times do I have to hear that! Let's look to the future and not dwell on youthful indiscretions!

First off, drug laws ought to be a state issue in my opinion so I believe our President is doing the right thing,
As for the picture, on the surface it puts Drudge in a bad light but since I don't follow Drudge I don't have any basis on which to determine whether it is his pattern or whether it was on honest mistake.

I am not an Obama fan but I have to give credit where credit is due. This is one thing he has done right. And this is not because I approve of drug use (even marijuana) but I approve *less* of both a) federal involvement in this and b) the damage drug laws have done to our country.
As for Drudge, he *always* tries to "stir the pot". The left is just not used to being in the pot!
