Note: Parenthetical remark by the Sun editor, headline by newshawk

CHRETIEN IS A HYPOCRITE

In the same interview where he said he might try pot, Jean Chretien also 
said he would not impose his moral views on others because he would not 
want others to impose their morals on him. The message to any pot smoker is 
that CHRETIEN IS A HYPOCRITE. HYPOCRITICAL NEWSPAPER EDITORS WHO READ 
MORALIZING messages into the PM's misguided attempts at being cool are just 
as pathetic as the PM's sense of humour. There is nothing wrong with 
smoking cannabis that would justify a fine or an arrest or even a shaken 
finger by the editors.

(The aim of decriminalization is not to popularize pot use.)
