Merle Haggard a Great Man but Craves Pot

Haggard will play his first concerts in a little over two months on Friday and Saturday in his central California hometown of Bakersfield.

They will be the first shows of his life where he has not loosened up before with either tobacco or marijuana, he said. "So it's gonna be interesting as to what kind of a show comes out of this body that's used to performing the other way."

Haggard, who once derided pot-smoking hippies in his 1969 hit "Okie From Muskogee," got hooked on marijuana after a doctor said it was a good substitute for his Valium habit.

I got a better idea. Retire and shut your face so the rest of us won't have to deal with your legal problems. Now let's see that you tube video of Rush Limbaugh, Jeb Bush and Karl Rove red eye stoned with bloody noses on the O'Reilly Factor set.

Hint: There ain't. The meek shall inherent the Earth because they don't drug aggro. And they say the drug life is better than boarding up your windows.
