The California governor is at it again, this time telling a British magazine that he had never used drugs, this in the face of evidence he acknowledged using marijuana in the 1970’s, and we all remember the documentary of 1977, “Pumping Iron”, where he was shown smoking a joint.According to the article, Schwarzenegger told CQ marijuana, “That is not a drug, it’s a leaf.” He went on to say his drug was pumping iron. The governor’s press agent, Aaron McLear said the comments were made in a lighthearted context during an interview with Piers Morgan, one of the judges on “America’s Got Talent.”

And how interesting this so-called “lighthearted” comment in view of the fact the governor vetoed his state legislatures latest bill on industrial hemp. Read the Yahoo! News article, it’s worth a laugh or two.
