This is a really good example of the symptoms of their general mental disorder--the way they yoke together two completely unrelated subjects. Another example of the same symptom set is how they automatically call conservatives hypocrites because we oppose general increases in federal spending (especially those not enumerated as Constitutional requirement) but not increases in defense spending---as if, to them, 1) spending in one area must instantly justify spending in all areas, and 2) defense spending wasn't a truly special case, an area of spending necesary to our survival as a nationality/country, a characteristic which no other area of spending can claim to possess. In this case, they've joined together an oil spill and total drug legalization/decriminalization. I'd be hard put to imagine two spheres of human activity less connected. It's as if their now instinctive rejection of all of normality has become one, giant, mishmash of indistinguishable components.
