I love this NORML ad criticizing NYC Mayor Mike Bloomberg for admitting to smoking pot (and enjoying it) while supporting the jailing of New Yorkers who do the same. Bloomberg joins the ranks of numerous tokin' politicians, including Newt Gingrich, Al Gore, Bill Bradley, Clarence Thomas (that I can't picture) and George Pataki. Now, just because these people have used drugs, that doesn't mean they have to endorse them. We all do dumb things that we regret, and these people may all sincerely regret smoking pot. However, do they really think the appropriate punishment for their youthful selves (or their cohorts who supplied them with drugs) is prison time? I doubt it.
