In tonight's debate, Mitt Romney seized on the opportunity to go for the vote of "people who hate drugs". He stated that he never has smoked pot. And he wasn't even asked. He just blurted our "I never inhaled". It was completely out of context. Strange.
Here's the thing: Mitt Romney was born in 1947. So he went to college and grad school from the mid-60's through the early 70's. Can you believe it possible that he isn't lying his ass off when he claims he never smoked pot?
Or even more disturbing could be the thought that he could be telling the truth. He could have gone through the fucking sixties and seventies without ever getting high! I know he was a Mormon missionary and all but shit, even Mormons got high in the 60s.
So the big question to me is - is he a scarier fuck if he's lying or if he's telling the truth?
But the political question is whether this is even smart politics any more.
