Was Kamala Harris getting stoned while serving as an anti-pot prosecutor?

In yet another bid to prove she's down with the kids, Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif. sat down with "The Breakfast Club" — the Charlamagne tha God version, not the Molly Ringwald one — to dish on everything from running for president to pot.

"Half my family is from Jamaica, are you kidding me?" Harris joked when the morning show hosts challenged whether she favors marijuana legalization. She conceded she has in fact lit up while listening to Tupac and Snoop Dogg during college before adding, "and I inhaled," a subtle swipe at Bill Clinton's equivocation on weed.

Unfortunately for Harris, this timeline doesn't work. She says she got stoned to Tupac and Snoop during college, but Tupac didn't drop his debut solo album until the end of 1991. Snoop didn't do so until two years after that. By that time, Harris, who graduated from Howard University in 1986, was already years deep into her career as an anti-marijuana deputy district attorney in Alameda County.

So unless she was lighting up while she was cracking down on marijuana users, her story looks a lie, one reeking not of weed but of desperation to appear as hip and with it as a young Barack Obama once was.

Americans don't mind youthful indiscretions, and they've warmed to pot legalization, but liars are another matter. Harris seems determined to frame herself as a pro-weed candidate, but as district attorney of San Francisco and as California attorney general, she was quite the opposite.
