DeLay’d Gratification
It seems that Canada and the U. S. are engaging in a little continental drifting. Canada’s marijuana laws are getting less stringent, and their gun laws more so:

Here’s a really telling anecdote about Tom Delay and the Texas crowd’s attitude toward power:
Sad to say, however, our House of Representatives is run by a man — Texas Rep. Tom DeLay — who chews tobacco and smokes cigars.
Recently, as The Washington Post reported, DeLay and cronies lighted up cigars at Ruth’s Chris Steak House in D.C., which is in a building owned by the Smithsonian and falls under a federal smoking ban.
A manager politely cited government policy and asked DeLay to snuff out his stogie.
“I AM the federal government,” DeLay bellowed at him, and then stormed out.
Were he to smoke a joint, DeLay might be better able to control his anger.
