Good for Obama coming out with the fact that he’s used drugs. It was bound to be surfaced by “opposition researchers” at some point, so better that he rob the revelation of its power.
But that’s just the start. We all should get it all out of the way right now, in one gigantic Gotcha Fest, because we’re all guilty of just about everything and — thanks to the Internets — we’re all going to know just about everything about everyone.
Let me make it easy for us. Here’s a form you can post on your own site.
