Robert Watson, a high-ranking Republican state legislator in Rhode Island, is in hot water after being charged with driving under the influence of marijuana and possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia. Drug charges alone would be bad enough for a public official, but Watson, Rhode Island's House minority leader, is still remembered for his controversial anti-drug, anti-gay and anti-immigrant remarks.
In February, Watson said the Rhode Island legislature had their priorities right "if you are a Guatemalan gay man who likes to gamble and smokes marijuana."
Watson was a guest on a radio show soon after the luncheon where he made the misstep, and in response to the outcry over his comments said, I reject the suggestion that it's insulting." He went on to say that lawmakers were "preoccupied with a number of issues, primarily social issues," when Watson thought they should focus on the economy.
[...]
Watson was pulled over at a police checkpoint Friday, East Haven police told the Associated Press. Police noted a "strong odor of marijuana" coming from Watson's car, and charged him with possession and driving under the influence. The lawmaker was released after he promised to appear in court, and has not yet issued a statement.

Yep... hypocrite
Don't mean the argument against drugs, keeping them illegal, is wrong
What argument is there to keep Pot illegal?
The supposed "War on drugs" hasn't done anything to help our country.

Why don't I see this same comment from you on the birther threads?.. Oh I forgot, this is Stephanie I'm talking to.
This is actually much more important than the dumbazz birfer threads, because this is true.
But I forgot.. Poor Steph doesn't like it when you highlight the hypocrisy of the "family values" party.. Poor baby.

There isn't one, and both of our mainstream parties absolutely love the drug war, there's a lot $ in it.

Exactly. And that's the only reason it's illegal.
It makes absolutely no sense how alcohol and ciggerettes can be legal, but Pot isn't.
I think anyone who opposes legalization has the complete wrong stance.. but to be against something, while doing it.. That's just plain hypocrisy.
Same with the "family values" politicians that get cought with another dude. There's nothing wrong with that.. Except the fact that they're a bunch of fucking lyin' hypocrites..
