Drugs & Politics


There are currently two issues on my radar that I feel need to be addressed.  The first of which is the PM of Italy Silvio Berlusconi and his alleged affairs with a 17 year old smokeshow belly dancer (she's now 18 game on).  Let's cut to the chase and say that the PM (prime minister for those of you who don't follow international politics) was banging this broad.  First of all I can only hope that at the age of 74 (Berlusconi's age) I'm even capable of holding a conversation with 17 year old smokes let alone being the leader of a nation.  I'm pretty sure that's not in the cards but Biggie told me the sky's the limit so we'll see.  For those of you who don't know the back story PM Berlusconi supposedly showered this girl with lavish gifts in exchange for that sweet apple pie and one of her roommates went to the press with the story.  So first off that roommate better be on the streets after that move.  Like who the fuck does that to their roommate?  Hope you liked your 5 minutes of fame as the big mouthed roommate.  My first problem with this story is that it has absolutely nothing to do with what the PM accomplishes as a politician.  What it boils down to is a bunch of haters creating a buzz over my man Berlusconi smashing underage tail behind closed doors.  This is none of anybody's business and it has no reflection on what he has accomplished as a politician.  It's a case of bro-haters vs. bro's that are laying pipe.  Now the entire country of Italy is split over whether to continue supporting their PM or get him out of office.  This chick is almost as powerful as Helen of Troy just straight up causing devastation throughout a whole country.  I guarantee any guy in the same position of power and influence would do the same thing and if you say you wouldn't then you need to work on cracking your closet door open.  Seriously get the fuck out of there it's OK it's 2011. 

My second political gripe stems from a CNN interview with Gil Kerlikowski who, for those of you not familiar, is the Director of the White House's National Office of Drug Control Policy AKA the US Drug Czar.  He's fresh off a three day tour of Colombia, the producers of everyone's favorite nasal congestant.  After our boy Gil explains that our country, which mind you is as of December 31, 2010 $14 TRILLION in debt, has been pumping $7 billion into Colombia to fight the "war on drugs" is "starting" to be successful.  Take in those numbers again and explain where the success is.  He claims that national cocaine use is on the decline and I call bullshit.  I've seen things homey and shit is not on the decline...more like people are more careful and knowledgeable about what they're doing that's why statistics are going down.  The war on drugs will never be won.  I'm not saying everything should be legalized but at least stop pumping money into other countries and stop raising taxes on the main land.

On a sidenote I think Obama's approval rating would sky rocket if he started slamming some hot belly dancer no?  It's worth a try given his dismal ratings as of late.  If you need a new adviser I'm available Prez.
