The Doobie Brothers Newsletter

December 10th 2017 Newsletter


The Doobie Brothers Newsletter

   Ah, growing up in the sixties and seventies, what great music was created in that era. One that came to mind last few weeks was the Doobie Brothers, named for a slang term for a joint of marijuana, although the censors at the time weren't quite up on pop culture. And after last week's revelations that gubernatorial candidate Gary Jones stumbled into admitting that he smoked pot once we were treated to a meltdown on Facebook by Taliban Dan Fisher who first seemed to support the legalization of marijuana, then retracted or clarified that he was supporting the medical use. Okaaaayyyyyy.......

Needless to say Taliban Dan stepped in it big time as his Christian supporters reacted as one would imagine they would and after the quasi retraction the pot head supporters of his campaign reacted in the other direction. His original post clearly stated he supported legalizing marijuana for medical use, so why the sudden backpedaling?

So what better way to commemorate a memorable few weeks of political stumbles and gaffes than to include the two candidates into the Doobie Brothers, a grassroots support group for mainstream politicians looking for the pot head vote.

So in the spirit of that and given that it is a slow political news week, enjoy our Dobbie Brothers Newsletter edition.
