let me start off by saying Fuck all the false slander, its all just bullshit,. if this salvia shit that is still legal “no offence” but its sends you on a trip not much different than shrooms. And marijuana is illegal ? its all about controll our government is full of “controll freaks” lol” sad but true. Yea fuck that……. I would straight up say if your aginst weed (fuck you) “why do you care whats in my cup? Its my cup!!!!” (Lil wayne)

Exactly! Which is why “pot pusher” is an oxymoron. Unlike John Walters, who is just a moron.

Let’s put things in context:

You know the dealer, the dealer is a man
With the love grass in his hand
Oh but the pusher is a monster
Good God, he’s not a natural man

The song distinguishes between the cannabis merchant and the purveyors of addictive opiates. There is no condemnation of the dealer of the love grass.

What the hell’s a “Pot Pusher”,
Another ‘effing “unicorn”???
Another stupid news-spin, derogatory-adjective!
(Never had pot ‘pushed’,
always
SOUGHT IT OUT for myself).

Peer-pressure???
No such thing,
EXCEPT…
Pressuring my peers to smoke their pot with me!!!

I got called the other morning by CNN trying to get me to say a whole bunch of stuff about Paul Stanford. They also tried to tell me he founded WA NORML (which is completely untrue). Not only did Anderson Cooper want to hurt Paul’s character, but also tie the hate and mis-information directly to NORML. I didn’t bite, I gave them some credible information and some actual facts and was then told goodbye and hung up on. Biased media is a terrible thing in America now and must stop. Facts are what the media needs to report on not some advertizing moguls morals or political agendas.

Mr. Cooper,

What is going on with you? Since you’ve began “America’s High…” I’ve seen you with a different face. Where is your objectivity? Where is your consideration of others?

First, let me begin with you and CNN’s take on Paul Stanford. Your thoughts and beliefs are not based on facts and are indeed slanderous once the facts are looked at. A pusher? Really? What about all those pharmaceutical companies using billions of dollars pushing drugs while using CNN as an outlet? Is that not pushing? Your definition of “pusher” is strange. You should probably offer your apologies.

Second, is your blog an outlet for CNN’s and CNN correspondents’ personal beliefs and opinions without objectivity and consideration of others….

Here is your tip for getting a blog posted..”5. We like criticism. We’re big fans of the 1st Amendment – we use the free press every day. We aren’t afraid of criticism in your comments, but let’s keep it intelligent and thoughtful, perhaps even constructive.”

Yet, look here:
http://ac360.blogs.cnn.com/2009/06/18/legalize-pot-why-not-legalize-being-a-loser/

Is this intelligent, thoughtful or constructive? I think no. However, according to the 1st Amendment, he has a right to say this. But, should you post it? So, it’s alright for CNN and CNN’s correspondents to call millions of people losers and have it posted on your blog?

I had a deep respect for you, but I see a conflict of interest while your job and responsibility is to provide honest, objective and consider reporting. However, you’re doing nothing as such. What a disappointment. I’m one viewer that will turn away from CNN and what you all represent. I can’t believe you are buying into what you are “pushing”.

After that comment I stopped watching so I caught the rest today and really it went well, its a shame AC had to slander Paul, the only pushing Paul does is for our rights!

I wonder if they told Paul they were going to call him a Pusher(he wouldnt have done it) or if they just threw that in since the segment was so positive for the pro marijuana side they had to make something look bad?
