     Dan Lungren, a man who makes a good living throwing people in jail 
for smoking the wrong kind of cigarette, had the utter gall recently to 
demand that private news publishers censor a comic strip by Doonesbury 
chronicling his raid on a bay area pot parlor.  Lungren, a man so 
thin-skinned he cannot even withstand the merest pencil-thin light on his 
gestapo-like prosecution of the drug war (choosing instead to bleat like 
a mouse caught in a gooey trap), had not the sense to ignore public scorn 
of his actions and instead chose to use his position as the state's 
highest law-enforcement official to shut down public discussion of his 
base, ill-conceived activities.  Perhaps this is because he is aware of 
the fact that, under his watch these past few years, drug use has increased 
dramatically (if we are to believe numbers trumpeted by his fellow 
republicans).   Here's to Lungren, a whinning shrew whose 
obvious and gushing gubinatorial hopes are best consigned to the ash-tray of 
history come 1998.
