Everybody associates with dope smokers. It's not possible for anyone to get through a day without associating with dope smokers, unless they stay home and keep to themselves. I don't seek them out, myself, but I know how many are out there, and I guarantee that the person who is saying they don't associate with dope smokers... that person definitely associates with dope smokers. Lots of them. In their own family, even.

But I see my questioner has changed the subject rather than answer my question. So I'll ask it again...


How about McCain's good buddy, G Gordon Liddy, about whom McCain said this, "Well, you know, I'm proud of you. I'm proud of your family. I'm proud to know your son, Tom, who's a great and wonderful guy. And it's always a pleasure for me to come on your program, Gordon. And congratulations on your continued success and adherence to the principles and philosophies that keep our nation great"

This from Liddy...

"Well, if the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms comes to disarm you and they are bearing arms, resist them with arms. Go for a head shot; they're going to be wearing bulletproof vests."

During the same period that Bill Ayers was a member of the Weather Underground, Gordon Liddy was making plans to firebomb a Washington think tank, assassinate a prominent journalist, undertake the Watergate burglary, break into the office of Daniel Ellsberg's psychiatrist, and kidnap anti-war protesters at the 1972 Republican convention.
