The Alice Marshall Game

From GOTV, aka Alice Marshall's Insanity, we are treated to this little pearl of wisdom:

Rep. Tom Davis (R-Va.) called Soros "pro-marijuana" because of Soros' advocacy of decriminalizing the drug (Soros also favors clean needle programs).

Question for Davis supporters, have you ever smoked marijuana? Because if you have, you have no business throwing people in jail for the same.
Well, gee, I guess Alice is right. But I've never smoked marijuana (never even SAW it until I interned in a U.S. Attorney's office, and then, it was in an evidence bag), and I've got no problem throwing people in jail for dealing it, and probably for smoking it to.

Let's use her "logic" a little more, though:

1. Have you ever [exceeded the speed limit]? Because if you have, you have no business throwing people in jail for the same.

2. Have you ever [driven after having a few drinks]? Because if you have, you have no business throwing people in jail for the same.

3. Have you ever [driven recklessly]? Because if you have, you have no business throwing people in jail for the same.

4. Have you ever [taken office supplies, including paper clips and pens]? Because if you have, you have no business throwing people in jail for the same.

5. Have you ever [made a rolling stop at a stop sign]? Because if you have, you have no business throwing people in jail for the same.

6. Have you ever [changed lanes without signaling]? Because if you have, you have no business throwing people in jail for the same.

7. Have you ever [cheated on your taxes, like failing to pay sales taxes on items ordered from out-of-state]? Because if you have, you have no business throwing people in jail for the same.
