Dick Saslaw’s Marijuana Buy Blamed On Minorities
By Greg L | 21 May 2010 | Virginia Politics, Humor & Satire | 10 Comments
Folks find out that Senator Dick Saslaw’s credit card records have entries showing purchases of “medical marijuana” from California. What happens next? He blames an African-American man and an Hispanic woman for stealing his his identity to buy pot. Yeah, sure. Let’s throw the minorities under the bus every time we get caught with our hand in the psychedelic cookie jar.
So typical.

You seem to be sitting on a scoop here, Greg. If you know that Saslaw bought this stuff for his own account and that he’s framing the suspects that have been picked up in California, you have not only a legal obligation to exonerate the poor sods that CHP has taken into custody, but you may have a shot a a Pulitzer here. Enough of this shyness, man. Go do well by doing good. Make a name for yourself and get those poor people out of the slammer.
How would one go about finding the exact people who stole your info, and wouldn’t you expect the people to be local and not in CA?
Greg, did you even read the article? It was the CHP that fingered the suspects. They were alerted to the identity theft by the Virginia State Police. This is all in the article. Egad, get some sleep or something.
Look at the category, folks. Some folks have no sense of humor…
Greg, I’d wager that 100% of your readers don’t look at the category (me included). But they will now!
had my identity stolen by an illegal, luckily he was arrested in a raid on the swift meatpacking company awhile back. Had a fake SS card with his name and my SSN on it in his possession upon arrest. this is not out of the ordinary, happens every time. You cannot imagine what I went through to get this stuff fixed. If this dudes ID was stolen it’s no laughing matter, it’s tough stuff to fix.
The messed up thing…is that I didnt even know about it until authorities came knocking on my door. I’m lucking that this dude only used a made up number (mine) to get a job and didnt try to buy a house or car or worse…
Understand chicko…it’s a real threat these days….try “Lifelock”….it’s not expensive when you consider the headaches that it might prevent.
Greg, I owe you an apology. I didn’t see the category. Mea culpa.
I saw “Virginia politics” but stopped there. Please, put SATIRE at the top in CAPITAL letrers.
Some of the stuff Greg writes under this headline just doesn’t come over as either humor or satire.
I usually start from the assumption that most of what appears here, both posts and comments are horribly failed attempts at humor and satire. It’s the only explanation for much of what appears. But for something to be fairly categorized as “humor” or “satire”, it reasonably might be expected to be either droll, witty, funny, hilarious, amusingly ironical, or, for lack of a better term, satirical. Since this was none of those things, what was it really?
