Ganja and travel guru Rick Steves pledged to match your donation when giving to the Maine marijuana legalization initiative, stoned sheep go on a psychedelic rampage through the Welsh countryside, and BHO (Barack Hussein Obama) gets quizzed by a Vietnamese student on his past Choom Gang passion.

Those are your concentrated marijuana headlines for today, let’s take a dab and drill down on some facts.

Rick Steves Will Spark That Match: Capped at a matching donation of $50,000, NORML Board member and Washington State resident Rick Steves has committed his valuable resources to helping Maine pass their critical marijuana legalization initiative this fall. Putting his well-traveled foot where his pot-loving mouth is, Steves and NORML are committed to Maine’s marijuana legalization battle. Noting that legalization has little to do with being “soft” or “hard” on pot smokers – Steves wants the U.S. to have a more intelligent pot policy.

Stoned Sheep Trip Through Welsh Village: Dumped on the side of the road like worthless and discarded refuge, several bales of cannabis were ditched by suspected cultivators just outside a tiny Welsh village in South Wales. According to online reports, local villagers have been warned about psychotic, rampaging, stoned sheep; supposedly looking to create mayhem in the little town of Craig Cefn Parc. “County councilor Ioan Richard raised the alarm, saying the sheep have been “roaming the village” causing havoc by breaking into homes.”

Vietnamese Student Questions POTUS on Pot Use: Stopping off in Vietnam before the end of the G-7 Summit, BHO convened a town hall meeting where he made an announcement about a new Fulbright University to be built in Ho Chi Minh City. During the town hall meeting, Pres. Obama was asked by a student about his past indiscretions with marijuana consumption. Like a Boss: After first being serenaded by one of Vietnam’s many female rappers, Suboi, another Vietnamese student stepped up to the microphone and asked BHO about his youthful indiscretion with smoking pot.

Pot question from Vietnamese student: “Thank you. I’m a filmmaker, so I’m very interested in personal stories. And you said before, when you are young you’re like fooling around. And I read on Internet — I’m not sure if it’s true or not — that you also like smoking weed and things like that.” To which Pres. Obama noted, “I don’t know if that’s true.”

While the President of the United States of America can’t openly admit that he likes to take a phat rip from some presidential glass – I’m willing to bet he can’t wait to step down from the highest office in the land so that he can finally fire back up.
