Out of Rightfield

Pat Robertson: “I’m not exactly for the use of drugs, don’t get me wrong, but I just believe that criminalizing marijuana, criminalizing the possession of a few ounces of pot, that kinda thing it’s just, it’s costing us a fortune and it’s ruining young people.” Holy pot smoke, Batman! Is the über-conservative televangelist really going all rational on us? Nah, not totally. A spokesman later told the NY Times that Robertson does not endorse legalizing marijuana. He merely questions the severity of the punishments. Oh. For a moment there, I thought "peace on earth, goodwill to men" was about to break out all over the place.
