DOPEY SITUATION

The dopes can't even grow weed.

Considering the Ottawa Liberals' track record in matters like these,
it was all but guaranteed to happen. AIDS sufferers and other chronic
pain victims who are part of the federal government's controversial
medicinal marijuana program are complaining about the quality of the
government dope and are demanding their money back.

Some of them complained that despite consuming a large amount of the
feds' smoke, they only felt a slight "buzziness" that lasted for a few
minutes.

And another said he had to smoke so much of Ottawa's inferior dope
that it made him throw up.

Considering the reason he got a permit for medicinal marijuana in the
first place was to alleviate the nausea associated with AIDS, it would
seem to be counterproductive.

Remember, this isn't the "righteous quality" marijuana that reportedly
comes from illegal hydroponic grow operations nationwide or secret
mountain valley plantations in the wilds of B.C.

It's produced directly from Ottawa's own marijuana farm down an old
nickel mine in Flin Flon, Man. where the stuff is grown under tight
security. Only a wacky politician like ex-health minister Allan Rock
could come up with a goofy operation like that.

An operation, we should emphasize, that doesn't appear to work. Or, at
least, work to the satisfaction of clinical marijuana users. (More
proof of the superiority of the private sector, we guess.)

This is just another in the long list of bloopers and blunders at the
hands of the chronically incompetent federal Liberal government.

But, in this case, we're not entirely sure there isn't a method to
their madness.

Health Minister Anne McLellan is on record saying she opposes the
program that was imposed on the feds by an Ontario judge. Maybe that
"moral" opposition is behind the laughably lame pot cultivated in
Flin Flon.

Give them what they want. But don't give them what they want.

Make everybody happy. Make no one happy.

Create more civil service jobs, ostensibly to serve the terminally
ill.

Cultivate incompetence.

Sounds like Liberals to us.
