Wrong Cop, Barack.

Unfortunately, Barack Obama has dropped the ball once again when appointing officials.
This latest domestic policy face-plant could, if not handled right, have severe repercussions for Obama among his most ardent supporters.

He is Seattle Police Chief R. Gil Kerlikowske. He is also the choice for the nation’s new “Drug Czar".

Firstly, the term “Drug Czar” should have been done away with. The word “Czar” automatically conveys all things undemocratic. A title that reeks of all manner of evil as history clearly shows us.
Secondly, the ONDCP (office of national drug control policy) is an abomination of justice.
The ONDCP is a propaganda mill and absolutely nothing more or less. There is no end to the lies and dissemination of fabricated falsehood that the ONDCP, a Joe Biden manufactured mistake, is responsible for.

Now, Obama could have done much worse of course. He could have retained the lying sack of shit, John Walters, who is the present Drug Fascist…Czar…whatever.
So no doubt Kerlikowske is a step up. Question is, is the step high enough?

We doubt it. Seriously doubt it.

Picking a Seattle cop is not the problem, it’s just that the wrong Seattle cop was chosen.
Norm Stamper, also a former Seattle Chief of Police and presently an official with the great justice organization LEAP (Law Enforcement Against Prohibition), would have been the perfect pick.
A man who has not and will not lie for political motives, Stamper would have brought an impressive, incident free track record and a reality based outlook to a gov’t that so desperately needs it.

What Kerlikowske will bring is uncertain at best.

From the Washington Post:

“Our nation’s drug problem is one of human suffering,” according to his prepared remarks. “As a police officer, but also in my own family, I have experienced first-hand the devastating effects that drugs can have on our youth, our families and our communities.” - Gil Kerlikowske

Blazing new trails?

When you get these guys who’s “kid has done drugs", they almost automatically revert to blaming the drug and not the person abusing it as it should always be. People abuse drugs, not the other way around.
We may all end up suffering because Kerlikowske can’t face the fact that his kid get’s high, or had a problem or is an idiot who stepped over the line or whatever.

But Barack Obama did weed and coke and who knows what else. I’ll bet there’s a hit of Micro Dot in his history somewhere. ;)
So maybe we’ll see Obama take a firm hand and guide Gil Man down the only practical, reasonable and ultimately effective path when it comes to America and recreational drugs, Legalization.
If Obama fails in this instance, Americans, Mexicans and many others the world over will suffer the misery of the violence, incarceration, and lack of medicine that prohibition produces.

The choice could have been worse but definitely could have been much, much better. Gotta call this a FAIL! for now. But I hope I’m wrong.

Best of luck (if you pass confirmation), Gil Man.
Because if you turn into another John Walters, the same millions and millions of people who brought Kellogg’s Foods and Sheriff Lott to their knees over the Mike Phelps ordeal will be taking a great, big, honkin’ shit on you too.

Best of luck indeed.
