<p>It seems like Congressman and, more importantly, Doctor Ron Paul has a similar opinion calling the swine flu a non-event. He also noted the 1976 swine flu scare when a vaccine was created under the purview of Congress that killed more people than those that died from the swine flu itself. Dr. Paul was one of only two Congressmen to vote against the bill.</p>

The event is similar to Ron Paul&#8217;s Nov. 5 money-bomb, which garnered attention for his campaign in the presidential primary.</p>
<p>You don&#8217;t have to be a Kentucky resident to donate, so head over to <a href="http://www.randpaul2010.com/">randpaul2010.com</a> and donate. I know, times are tough, but even if you can&#8217;t donate $100 any amount would really be great. If you can spare $25, it might be worth it.</p>

<p>California <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2009/08/18/us/18brfs-MARIJUANAGRO_BRF.html?_r=1" target="_blank">wildfires</a> have been allegedly linked to marijuana growers. Something like 70 percent of all marijuana plants seized by the US government are found on <a href="http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2009/06/19/crimesider/entry5097296.shtml" target="_blank">public land</a>. Maybe if the plant was legal to grow and sell we wouldn&#8217;t have this problem. It would more likely be grown in a safer environment where the farmers are not forced to build outdoor camp fires to cook food. The farmers would also own the property they were growing on, so they would be more likely to keep it safe.</p>
<p>Two Honolulu police officers were <a href="http://www.kitv.com/mostpopular/20437979/detail.html" target="_blank">caught</a> in Las Vegas smoking marijuana in a parked van.</p>
<p>Walnut Creek, California, a community located almost 20 miles east of Oakland, is <a href="http://sfist.com/2009/08/18/walnut_creek_freaking_out_over_firs.php" target="_blank">freaking out</a> over it&#8217;s first medical marijuana dispensary application. After realizing the town had no restrictions to stop such an establishment, the city council called for a 45-day moratorium on marijuana dispensaries while they figure out what to do. My prediction? The council will take the time to find some obscure rule/law or permit violation and deny the dispensary.</p>
<p>Another insanely rich and successful person has admitted to smoking marijuana. This time it is <a href="http://www.nydailynews.com/gossip/2009/08/17/2009-08-17_brad_pitt_was_an_artist_with_marijuana_before_he_ditched_his_smoking_habit_to_be.html">Brad Pitt</a>. You can add him to the long list of celebrities, athletes, politicians, musicians and presidents who have admitted to smoking the stuff in the past.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/08/16/AR2009081601758.html" target="_blank">Washington Post</a> article calls for the legalization of drugs.</p>
<p>Speaking of <a href="http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/opinion/letters/bal-salvialetter0803,0,2335551.story" target="_blank">prohibition</a>, it would be a bad idea to ban <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salvia_Divinorum">Salvia Divinorum</a>.</p>
