AD NAUSEAM--THE 'DIME BAG' AD

Lakewood, Calif.

It was outrageous and disappointing to see the ad from the Office of National Drug Control Policy in The Nation equating buying and using marijuana (or any drugs) with supporting terrorism [Dec. 30; this issue]. That you would accept such a patently misleading, unbalanced and overly simplistic ad, an ad that attempts to draw a connection between drug use and terrorism, is astonishing, especially because it is contrary to the editorial content and theme of your magazine. Shame on you.
