My god my god, I am free at last.Kenyan freedom fighter George Hussein Obama, savagely arrested over the weekend for either possessing a single joint or owning all marijuana ever, and fighting the cops over it, has been released. All charges dropped! The Kenyan police now say it was all, heh heh, a misunderstanding.

Poor George was just swept up in some random slum police raid, and some other people caught up in this dragnet maybe possessed a joint! Or something, who knows.

For today, at least, Nairobi is safe from American air strikes.

Marijuana is an illegal drug. Marijuana is an illegal drug. Marijuana is an illegal drug. Marijuana is an illegal drug. Remember?

OK, everyone, show’s over, now go back to drinking until you are fall-down drunk and smoking like chimneys. Because alcohol and nicotine are our friends, unlike that demon Maryjane!

How cool would it be if Barry issued a general amnesty for anybody who’s in prison just on pot charges?

Very cool.

A famous US athlete, a famous Japanese athlete and the POTUS little bro all caught pot smoking on the same day, each in a different country. Conspiracy, anyone?

When they told Barry about it, he said, “Let me make some calls.”

Can’t really blame the people in this pic. Smoking weed is the only thing to do in Ambridge, PA.

Actually, George was busted for not having any weed. The cops were like “come on,” and he was all, “It’s dry right now, really,” and they dragged his ass to jail. Just a little overreaction from some jonesin’ cops.

This is not failure to have marijuana possession that we can believe in.

Lionel Hutz Esq. February 2, 2009 at 1:50 pm

All this means is that the cops had run out and were just busting some smokers so that they could rebuild their stash. Happens all the time. (And, as anyone knows, cops always have the best shit).

Pic of the van looks a heckova lot like the matatus that are the most prevalent form of public transportation in Kenya, except that it should have an Obama sticker on the windshield. Passengers on roof – not so common, but not beyond the real of possibility.

LawrenceOfTheDesert – the language would be Kiswahili, or in George’s case, the Luo dialect.

Tuta onnana badaye. as we say in Kiswahili.

ColHeightsChic February 2, 2009 at 5:43 pm

In Kenya, it’s generally the ones who DON’T pay the cops bribes who end up getting arrested. So Barry’s brother must be super-duper honest, see?
