DOUBLE STANDARDS ON DRUGS

Sir - Was that the same Nick Smith casually betting a bottle of wine in an
interview on Morning Report (February 25) who attacked the Green Party so
vehemently on marijuana?

The Green Party promotes a drug-free lifestyle as the healthiest. Mr
Smith's comments highlights the point Nandor Tanczos is trying to make -
that double standards apply to two different drugs.

The Green Party wants to address reality. Anyone else interested?
