David Funderburk: “Bill Clinton is using tobacco as a politically correct whipping boy while he ignores marijuana, cocaine and heroin…”

“Bill Clinton is using tobacco as a politically correct whipping boy while he ignores marijuana, cocaine and heroin trafficking and the crime associated with it. Teenage marijuana use has more than doubled on Bill Clinton's watch, but it is no surprise that kids are inhaling under this administration. Just days after taking office, the President cut the office of the drug czar by 80 percent. In its first 3 years he eliminated 227 agent positions for the DEA. We all remember his Surgeon General, Joycelyn Elders, who talked about legalizing cocaine. I would say to the President, Mr. Speaker, Mr. President, you can continue to attack an adult legal product which is the livelihood of thousands of hard-working farmers in North Carolina, but you cannot hide the fact that illegal drug use among teenagers have skyrocketed. You have proven to the Hollywood elite you are serious about stopping smoking. Now, Mr. President, convince the American public you are serious about stopping drugs.”
