Either that, or this is merely pandering of the highest order. “Steroids in sports?! I’m SHOCKED! I, as President, will save us from this unholy scourge!”

“Either”? :-)

Nobody’s getting “high” on steroids, nobody is knocking off liquor stores to get their “fix”, as most of the people who he’s trying to convince not to use them are multi-millionaire athletes or college students aspiring to become multi-millionaire athletes.

It just goes to show you. Obama isn’t pro-freedom just because he’s against the criminalization of medical marijuana. He isn’t in favor of reducing the ability of the federal government to control your choices in life. He simply wants to enact his own preferences into law, and his own preferences are not against medical marijuana.

Either that, or this is merely pandering of the highest order. “Steroids in sports?! I’m SHOCKED! I, as President, will save us from this unholy scourge!”
