Perhaps so. I knew this peculiar gay guy some time ago. He described how he was buggered in the school shower by another dude, and that seemed to be his defining moment. It was rape.

Pot clubs don’t allow cellphones or cameras to be out anyway-—or so I am told.
To: F15Eagle
Pot legalization is a still a touchy subject among the Democrat Party platform. The fear is the voting public getting fed up of jobless "stoners" mooching off the public taxpayer that welfare reform could become a lightening rod with the opposition Party (That would be limited government conservatives).

“IOWs hes a typical Democrat.”
Maybe it is senseless to discuss whether a bear is bigger than a mountain lion since both are extremely dangerous predators that will eat you, but a bear is bigger than a mountain lion and Jared Polis is distinctly worse than the average democrat.

Jared Polis: To Know Him Is To Loathe Him.
Polis, then known as Jared Polis Schutz, sold Bluemountain.com, his family’s online greeting-cards website [ that he inherited ? ] , to Excite@Home for $780 million, including $350 million in cash that Excite couldn’t really spare. Excite sold it for $35 million in September 2001, and filed for bankruptcy a month later. People still talk about it as one of the most spectacular cashouts of the dotcom boom.

I disagree. IMO all Dems today are just like Jared Polis.

Just dont try to take his picture in the grow room. Its like, that could go viral, Polis says, leaving Choice Organics in Fort Collins. I dont shy away from the issue; we talk about it, whatever. But the problem is, we get so many more invitations to talk about it than other things, so it seems like thats all I talk about a lot when its really not. He probably says the same sort of thing when he visits a sex dungeon.

His dabbling in a wild weed is the LEAST of his problems. And he has plenty of problems.

Agreed. CO Democrats are less subtle than CO Republicans about their support of libertine behaviors and big government, but
both are effective at keeping real conservatives out of politics and business.

Not a pot expert, however, I had one co-worker who smoked on occasion that was able to work circles around everyone else. On the other hand, I knew more welfare moocher pot-smokers.

I don’t discount a genetic disease factor for homosexuality, but being raped as a child is definitely a cause for some of them. Didn’t Mark Foley say he was diddled?
This creep looks like he likes em young. Those pages better be careful.
So he likes weed too huh, maybe legislating under the influence should be a crime.

Funny - the headline says he is trying to “win over his party”, but the sizable excerpt fails to mention the party he belongs to.
I wonder what THAT means?!? /sarc
