A MISERABLE FAILURE IN PRIORITY-SETTING by the Bush Administration:

At a time when federal officials should focus obsessively on crushing terrorists, they are expanding the disastrous war on drugs into an even more pointless war on substances. From old bogeymen like marijuana to new “hazards” like Oxycontin, Washington busybodies are knocking themselves out combating compounds that, by themselves, do not threaten public safety.

Don’t these people realize that there’s a war on? A real one?

UPDATE: Steve Sturm says that I’m too hard on the Bush Administration here. I don’t think so, but you can make up your own mind.
