    You know why it isn't looked at as a serious proposition? Because every gawd damn dope smoking hippy pushes this as the miracle product and your rightwing buddies are going to oppose it on just that principle.

    Face it, the dope smoking phish listening to population isn't after pushing help for anything other than legalizing it will be one step closer to leaglizing its cousin that few can recognize without botany training (either that or smoking it and figuring out if ya get high or just have a really nasty headache).

    Trust me, get the hippies and the dopers onto some other wonder drug and the Rightwingers will go for hemp like nothing. I know I'm going to be modded down for this by some dumbass (remember smoking dope lowers your IQ...wasn't that on here or was that k5) but think about it. Have folks in suits pushing that Hemp Jelly...get swimsuit models wearing that itchy fibre over their most sensative body parts...just don't have some stoned out spokesman that looks like he should be in a drum circle or hugging other guys in a heterosexual mens group way pushing it and the image will change.
