Your election's gone flaccid

By now we’re all used to American politicians declaring “war” on anything that makes them unhappy, be it terrorism or the pencil-necked intern who knocked over their morning espresso. The “War on Drugs” is a weary battle familiar to children who grew up in the 80s and received lectures from the likes of Yogi Bear and Nancy Reagan. Isn’t a little ironic for a cartoon to come to life and speak about recreational drugs?

Drugpolicy.org, with a little help from YouTube, addresses the futility of the War on Drugs. Just remember you can go to jail for smoking a joint, so if you crave an added effect to this movie, have your doctor prescribe a whack of narcotics. Don’t forget a prescription for the medications you’ll need to lessen the side effects.
