BE NOT AFRAID

The drug Czar of the America's, Mr. John Walters is a charlatan, a
perpetrator of prevarication, a prostitute for the pharmaceutical palaces,
an aide to the Afghan drug lords and a pawn of terrorists worldwide.

I began my latest odyssey in wrangling the Czar on August 23rd with this
invitation to Sonya Salstrom, an assistant to the Director of Public
Affairs of the Office of National Drug Control Policy, the ONDCP: "I am
having a difficult time in getting an interview with anyone dedicated to
further enforcement of the drug prohibition laws. I understand that you see
great harms in marijuana, more so than with heroin or cocaine, at a time
when many are calling for reform of all these laws, more especially so in
regards to marijuana."

I've tried numerous times to contact his office, to get him or a member of
his Office of National Drug Control Policy to do an interview for the Drug
Truth radio network. His office states: "It certainly appears as though
you have had some interesting guests on your show. While we will be unable
to accommodate your request, we wish well in your future endeavors.".

I'm sure they think I can be ignored, that the sheeple of America are
sufficiently under their thumb and that they can continue their little game
for another 90 years. I convince congressmen, judges, district attorney's
and respected authors to visit my show to discuss the drug war and yet the
man who stands for eternal war on our brethren for their choice of
intoxicants is insulated from the public much like the President.

I met John Walters, (or at least I tried.) He spoke at Dulles High School
with Rep. Tom Delay about gangs, drugs and violence. For the first few
minutes, nearly every phrase he uttered was met with shouts from the
audience of "liar", "are you a doctor?" and other phrases meant to reveal
his deceptions.

At least a dozen (visible) cops, DEA and ONDCP security were in attendance,
staring at the audience like they were supper. Mr. "Zero Tolerance" begged
for tolerance from the audience, to allow him to finish his
speech. Punkmeister John wanted us to know that "marijuana has now become
the single greatest threat, twice as addicting as cocaine and a vastly more
important problem than heroin and methamphetamines."

I cannot find ANYBODY, ANYWHERE who is willing to debate this policy of war
without end. When my turn came they declined to allow any more
questions. I tried to get close enough to hand the Czar my business
card. His cadre of "special agents" would not allow me to introduce myself
nor would they hand my card to him. He left through the rear exit with his
cadre surrounding him, looking every bit the gangster that he is.

I captured many of his lies on disc and you can listen in starting on
August 17 at DrugTruth.net. Marijuana, the former medicine, fiber, food,
fuel and boon to mankind has become a threat to our nation, just ask the
Czar who knows all, sees all and is ever ready to kill you and your
children to keep you safe from marijuana.

I grew up believing in an America that had compassion, intelligence,
understanding and that offered not second chances, but infinite
chances. If my vision of America is flawed, if the likes of John Walters
can stand as knowledgeable and credible and spill his swineherd soliloquies
forever, then the America I dreamed of is lost.

Do you truly believe the lies or in the office or in the graces of
government about "illegal" drugs? If not, please call your congressman toll
free if you give a damn at 1-800-839-5276. Write the Houston Chronicle at
viewpoints@chron.com.. Email me at dean@drugtruth.net. Call me at
281-752-9198 or just give up, roll over and forever expose your genitals
and urine to the overseers.

I urge you to listen to KPFT, Pacifica radio, 90.1 FM in Houston and online

Project Housterdam just opened the dialogue about medical marijuana with
the Houston City Council. Please join the good people of Houston NORML,
(www.houstonnorml.org) and the Drug Policy Forum of Texas, (www.dpft.org),
as we take back the moral high ground in the drug war.
