The White House fell to the pot lobby last week—in a 25-3 blow-out on the softball field.
The One Hitters, a team sponsored by a pro-marijuana group, crushed the White House softball team, the Washington Post’s In the Loop blog reports:
Marijuana doesn’t seem to dampen athletic prowess (which we already knew — hello, Michael Phelps!). Still, the victors were gracious about the rout. "The One Hitters enjoyed slugging it out with the White House," said Aaron Houston, executive director of Students for Sensible Drug Policy, the group that sponsors the team. "Hopefully we can play them again when they aren’t totally absorbed in work."
We almost missed the pun hidden there. Hint: David Maraniss’s latest book revealed that President Obama’s high-school pot smoking philosophy included "total absorption" of the precious weed.
Get it now?
