The Young Turks · Published on Apr 7, 2014
"Michele Leonhart, the head of the Drug Enforcement Administration, has a message for those considering legalizing marijuana: Please, think of Fido.
Testifying on the DEA budget during a House Appropriations subcommittee hearing on Wednesday, Leonhart said she expected a number of things to happen after Washington and Colorado were allowed to go forward with the legalization of marijuana last year. What she didn't anticipate was the impact on man's best friend.
"There was just an article last week, and it was on pets. It was about the unanticipated or unexpected consequences of this, and how veterinarians now are seeing dogs come in, their pets come in, and being treated because they've been exposed to marijuana," Leonhart said."
Cenk Uygur, Michael Shure, Ana Kasparian and John Iadarola of The Young Turks discuss the DEA head's insane comments.
- Thanks Obama! She's just the person to pursue the policies you believe in! Just like when you said you'd make sure GMO foods got labeled if you were ever Preztlenut! You found another peach of a guy to insure that gets done as well! I tell ya, I don't know how many more of your campaign promises we can stand!

Remember when it caused men's breasts to grow? Oh, that didn't catch on.
Then it was the fire at MGM Grand caused by a joint left on the stairs. Oops, didn't think that one through.
Oh, what about the train engineer that was stoned? Nope, trains can't take a wrong turn w/o outside help.
Even folks here still believe it makes one duller, slow or something.
Do your own research, you can't believe TPTB. Smoke a joint.
