Barbara Boxer Loves The Doobie Brothers
By Wyatt Earp | September 9, 2010
Her aides? They just love smoking doobies.
A senior aide for Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) was arrested Tuesday for attempting to bring marijuana into the Hart Senate Office Building, according to U.S. Capitol Police reports.
Marcus Stanley, who served as a senior economic adviser and at one time worked on the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee — chaired by Boxer — was stopped by a police officer Tuesday morning when he allegedly tried to “remove and conceal” a leafy green substance from his pocket during a security screening at the Constitution Avenue door of the Hart building around noon, according to a Capitol Police report. Police confiscated the substance, which later tested positive for marijuana, and Stanley quickly resigned.
Just another reason to vote for Carly Fiorina, folks.

Just an example of what disrespect liberals have for our country and it’s institutions and traditions.

No surprise here. Anyone who is paying attention has already figured out that the current crop of congressional economic advisers is high.

Questions:
Was the aide listening to Pink Floyd or Jimi Hendrix on his IPOD when he was arrested?
Did he have 6 boxes of Ho-Hos or a dozen White Castle Double Slider cheeseburgers?
When he resigned to Barbara Boxer did he address his letter “Dear Maam”, “Dear Senator” or “Dear Sister of the Bong”?

Captain – She is definitely guilty of bad judgment. A good reason to boot her out in November.
John D – They might as well move the Congress to Woodstock.
Ferrell – 1. Floyd, definitely. 2. Sliders. Easier to go down. 3. Dear Weed Mama . . .

“The spin will be he has a medical condition, sore pinky finger, and has a California weed script.”
In Los Angeles you can pay ninety-five bucks, get diagnosed with post-adolescent angst or Munchausen’s PTSD By Proxy and get a ‘medicinal pot” note.
Someone at Dan Riehl’s wondered why Big Pharma hasn’t started making THC pills if the stuff’s so good…

Rick – Yeah, he had the sniffles.
Richard – Meh, if Big Pharm gets involved, no one will want it anymore.
