Here we have Hemp for Victory, which was an educational film promoting hemp farming in the United States that was created  after marijuana had already been outlawed in 1937. Hemp for victory was made because the US needed hemp to make products for our US soldiers sailing overseas and since hemp was all that had been used since the last time we were involved in a major conflict we had no other choice and the US quickly made it temporarily legal to grow and supply the govt with hemp.

It’s so inronic how hemp produces this so-called evil drug marijuana according to the US govt. at the time and then they needed the very same people that they were arresting for growing marijuana to grow a form of the very same plant. I feel like through the use of the media and television, and this crazy video that people bought into it perfectly, and its no different in todays’ society. I want to believe that most of us are intelligent and don’t take everything we see on tv or the internet as fact before checking them out ourselves. Check facts and question motives otherwise the US govt. will soon have you housing illegal aliens to keep them from crossing the border…..sounds crazy and impossible but crazier shit has happened. Ok, just kidding that’s a bit radical, but its just to get the point across…form your own ideas and don’t be a sheep.

The courts have ruled that the biggest idiot ever convicted pirate Joel Tenenbaum has willfully infringed on copyrights, and has awarded the RIAA and the media companies $675,000 , $22,500 for each of the 30 songs he admitted to sharing. In a interview following the judgment, Tenenbaum noted that things could have gotten shitloads worse:

“I’m disappointed, but not surprised, but I’m thankful that it wasn’t much bigger, that it wasn’t millions.”

I don’t understand why people insist on sharing a file after they’ve downloaded it. Let the masses do it and you will still benefit. There are probably 1,000’s of people that download music and don’t even realize that they are seeding sharing it afterward. $675,000 seems a bit much for a jury of his peers to award the record companies because how do they expect the RIAA to get the money from him. They better hire the best bill collectors on earth, Rent-a-Center. When you owe them money they come to your house to take back the shit you have and they are relentless. He said he would have to file bankruptcy if he doesn’t win his appeal. I’m really glad that I stopped seeding downloading music and movies after my computer crashed the frist time. You download too much porn and you’re pretty much bound to get a virus. Tokes go out to Tenenbaum and his internet life, because its gonna be pretty boring.

With the state of California still handing out fucking IOUs to businesses like they’re playing Monopoly because of their immense debt, one of the new plans could be just what the state needs. A trio of Norml affiliated Northern CA attorneys rallied together to create the Tax, Control, and Regulate Cannabis Act of 2010.  The second new and better written initiative was created by Richard Lee, founder and president of Oaksterdam University in Oakland, CA.

The 1st act that was created by the lawyers from North CA is in a nut shell complete state legalization with regulation and taxing, while Richard Lee’s bill would give individual cities and counties the right to decide if they wanted cannabis to be taxed and regulated. Richard’s plan would also allow citizens to posses up to one ounce of marijuana and grow their own in a 5×5 grow space regardless of the city or counties choices on regulation and taxing. Richard’s bill is more likely to garner more attention and support because of his financial resources, having already allotted 1.5 million dollars towards signature gathering. We support any kind of reform of the countries corrupt and oppressive marijuana laws so tokes for Lee and the lawyers.

Looks like you’ll have to keep your shitty ass car a little bit longer like me, because the cash for clunkers program may be cancelled due to lack of funds. Yes they did just begin the program on July 1st and it was part of the huge 819 billion dollar stimulus plan, but apparently toomany people have taken advantage of the plan. The allotted 1 illion dollars for rebates to be given has been used by approximately 200,000 who have requested the credit. Congressional sources said early Thursday evening that the program would be put on hold. But Obama administration officials said later that Clunkers had not been suspended and that they were studying the situation.

Although Cash for Clunkers was due to end on November 1st or whenver the 1 billion dollars was used, an early version of the program called for 4 billion dollars to e the amount given. It makes me it look as though when discussing amounts to give things listed in the stimulus plan, politicians all just sat around and threw out random figures without any hard projectory facts that would lead them to believe they were making pr0ductive decisions. With this and presidential administration time being given to have a beer with two creepos from Boston, I’m beginning to wonder where their priorities are because it seems as though they are focsing a bit more on nonsense and less on passing a healthcare bill that nearly 50 million americans would benefit from. We run the house and senate democrats,why the fuck can’t we get this done???

Here’s a video from youtube user Hosserlegalize420 that gives 10 great reasons why the US and most of the civilized world should wake up and find some fucking common sense. Cannabis is a plant that is more benign than most of the substances we ingest everyday. Check out the video and keep tokin.

Looks like were getting more lies from the man with tiny eyes because in a recent interview the new drug-czar, Gil Kerlikowske he was quoted saying:

“Legalization is not in the president’s vocabulary, and it’s not in mine,” he said. … “Marijuana is dangerous and has no medicinal benefit.” The federal government is not going to pull back on its efforts to curtail marijuana farming operations, Gil Kerlikowske, director of the White House’s Office of National Drug Control Policy, said Wednesday in Fresno.

This is coming from the same man who held a very lax view on marijuana in his former position as police chief of Seattle. Gil also recently called for an end on the war on drugs.It seems to me as though he has a case of the “John flip-flop Kerry” and it really pisses me off. While I know that we are a considerable amount of time away from legalization, it should most certainly be in his brains that while in the Obama administration the issue should be discussed. It’s a pretty big croc of shit for him to pick and chose when he wants to have a progressive intelligent point of view and when he wants to sound like Paula Abdul on a good day. Normal has recently noted that it is stupid of him to make such a comment because they recently featured a study on their site that found the following information:

“Clearly, there is a growing acceptability of the therapeutic practice of medicinal cannabis use amongst organized medicine groups. … Estimates indicate that in 2008, approximately 7,000 American physicians have made such authorizations for a total of approximately 400,000 patients.”

I really hope that he can pull it together and fly straight because positions can be filled and we can find another czar that can stick to  one stance on marijuana, one being towards reform and progression, not lies and oppression….im starting to feel a bit like Al Sharpton so i’ll stop now cause that’s never a place u wanna take yourself to, but you get the point…legalize it bitches

Katie Holmes completely tried her human best, but the remnants of alien being left inside her (according to crazy scientology that she follows) did manage to gather together sequences and make that shit look like she was dancing. We’re pretty much over the Cruise clan, apart from Cris Klein’s daughter Suri, and any point in time where Tom Cruise decides that it’s a good idea to go on the Today show and talk about prescription meds, because you know he’s bound to call someone glib or summon zenu to the ABC set….If you don’t mind desperate hungry hippo like dancing and heidi montag like singing for attention, don’t watch…but otherwise enjoy with some special green on hand

p.s.- i guess her “performance” was for charity…..people will tolerate anything if its “for the kids”
