Tommy Chong, who spent nine months in federal prison on a drug paraphernalia charge, is not exactly a fan of Barack Obama's vice-presidential choice:

Check out the people you're voting for. For instance, Joseph Biden comes off as a liberal democrat, but he's the one who authored the bill that put me in jail. He wrote the law against shipping drug paraphernalia through the mail -- which could be anything from a pipe to a clip or cigarette papers.

No comment yet from Cheech Marin. So if Obama's writing off the Cannabis Coalition, cui bono?
