WT: Libertarian presidential nominee and admitted marijuana user Gary Johnson has promised to lay off the substance if he’s elected president.

  1. I hear conservatives that don’t like Trump call into AM radio weekly and claim they will vote for Johnson because he more aligns with their beliefs. I don’t think they have any idea what went on at the Libertarian convention, what they talked about, think is important or how they view the world. Marijuana, government conspiracies, open borders, chemtrails….

  2. Patrick Henry, Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, etc would have been mortified by what their grand vision has devolved into.

    It’s not only embarrassing, it’s dangerous. I can’t fight off this feeling of impending doom. The world is getting more menacing and we’re not a serious people anymore.

  3. I wonder if he has ever tried quitting.
    Most pot addicts can’t do it. It’s easy at first because it takes 60-90 days before the person stops being under the influence of the drug, but once THC levels start getting low and reality starts creeping back psychological issues manifest themselves that draw the addict back.
