Did Merle Haggard say that Hillary inhaled...
with him on Willie Nelson's bus?

I was laughing my ass off at this.

Haggard was talking with Bill Maher about smoking pot and Willie Nelson, and
somehow Haggard starts talking about Hillary getting on Willie Nelson's bus
and how she took a long drag, and "I think she inhaled".

Was he kidding?

The panel seemed stupefied, wondering if he was kidding or not.

Anyone know?

I have to say...if Hillary took a hit off of a joint--I might have to ease up on
her a bit.

2. I'll take your word for it that he was...
...kidding. However, there was no clear sign that this
was the case. It sounded like he was dead serious.

Which was really surreal.

3. Me too but I couldn't decipher a lot of what Merle said
He didn't look well although he did get a big laugh out of Maher's line about not wanting to go to Muskogee if they didn't smoke marijuana there. Maybe he had just smoked some himself.

7. Yeah, he seemed a bit...
out of it.

He was pretty hilarious. "Yeah, I don't go to Muskogee".

BTW--We just got a new kitty and it is a miniature version
of your cat!

That isn't my cat unfortunately. I just like his attitude. I've been trying to teach our cats to flip the bird but so far no luck.

6. I don't care if she has smoked pot or not.
Obama has. Bill has. W has. I haven't and I'm not interested if someone has or not, as long as the person is not doing it anymore.

12. Oh course he wasn't kidding...
If anyone thinks that most politicians don't hit a doobie now and again... I mean, come on, gimme a break.

Only those that really believe the "I didn't inhale" thing believe that.

17. I think he just meant on the bus generally
I loved when he said "I want to say hello to my friends and conservatives". :rofl:

I love Merle.
