Mixed Messages

I hate to admit this, but I am confused.  I was watching MSNBC yesterday.  They had a bunch of segments on health care.  One segment was on the alledge abuses of Michael Jackson’s medical staff including a possible manslaughter charge against Michael Jackson’s doctor.  Another segment was dedicated to the fact that deaths caused by given the wrong drug is one of the leading causes of death.  Despite of all of health care’s shortfalls, MSNBC seems to be an informercial to pass President Obama’s health care plan so that all Americans can get access to this kind of health care.

My Neighborhood

I mentioned yesterday that I am on a staycation and I am spending the rest of the holiday weekend in my neighborhood.  I just found out that I live next to Mountain Creek Water Park.  I will spend a day there if it ever stops raining and starts warming up.

Dinner was at the McAfee Diner and Deli on Route 94.  I overheard the customer in the table behind me explain to his dinner companion about “cap and trade”.  He said that government had no right telling businesses how to run their businesses.  I told him that I agree and told him about the woes of my friend Darrell Watkins.  The government shut down his portable pharmaceutical company because they did not see the medicinal benefits of meth, crack cocaine, or heroin.  They also said Darrell didn’t have a license to sell drugs.  The man gave me a strange look.

I will spend today at the Crystal Springs Spa.  It will probably be crowded with the holiday weekend, but I will feel up to being in public after a nice massage.

A Look at my Platform – Drugs

Over the next couple weeks, I will take issues from my platform and further explain my positions. Today, I will discuss my views on drugs.

My “Just say, ‘OK, but Just This Once’.” drug policy satisfies the curiosity people often have with drugs, yet offers an out before they get addicted.

The biggest problem with the “War on Drugs” and the “Just say No” campaign is human nature.  Teenagers want to show that they can make decisions without help.  But when parents tell their children not to do drugs, then the teens will rebel and do drugs.  Teens do not want to be talked to like children.

Teenagers are also curious.  They like to try things out and make their own evaluation.  We can teach abstinence until the cows come home, but the babies will cry nine months from now.

Everybody should try everything once. (Except for scrapple, that stuff is nasty.)  They should have to buy the drugs though.  They should realize the following:

• Drugs can get you high.
• The high never lasts long.
• The crash lasts longer.
• Getting high isn’t cheap.
• Ahmnodt Heare is a cool guy.

If your child still wants to get high after the first time, shake him or her violently and remind of the dangers of addiction.  If that doesn’t work, then take your child hunting and shoot him or her before your child becomes a hopeless loser who preys upon his or her family and friends.

Drug Policy Speech

I will be giving my drug policy speech today in Yoville.    The speech will be given in front of the Sky Nightclub at 4:20PM Eastern.  All are invited to attend.  Bring your own munchies.  I will go into my “Just say, ‘OK, but just this once’” drug policy.

Drug Policy

I haven’t fully explain my policy on illicit drugs.  It was based on the flaw I found on the “Just Say No” policy founded by Nancy Reagan.  The flaw is that they can’t say “No.”

My policy is different because it takes into consideration that people are curious and people want to feel better during tough economic times.  This is why I have stuck with my “Just say, ‘O.K. but just this once’” policy.  Not only does it allow people to fill their curiosity, but it also allows an out before they get addicted.

I don’t know why the “War on Drugs” issue wasn’t talked about more.  Instead of putting drug users into overcrowded prisons, I would make them work for the farms who have lost labor because the help moved back to Mexico.

The Illinois Senate Prefers The Way I Treat Seniors

I will take Rod Blagojevich at his word.  I will assume his innocence.   I believe Blagojevich when he said he was impeached for helping seniors.  Here is my take on the situation:

Rod Balgojevich circumvented the Illinois House and Senate in making drugs affordable for seniors.  He got those drugs from Canada.  The House and Senate were mad (as was I) that he was able to get drugs from Canada, but was unable to deport Canadians posed as “entertainers.”

I am sure the Illinois legislature would have been behind my “Affordable Food for Seniors” plan.  They might have been supportive of Blagojevich’s drug plan if it meant that Celine Dion would limit her concerts to the Holiday Inn lounges in Nova Scotia.
