Senator Boxer, don’t you realize that Marcus was only trying to improve Kookfornia’s stagnant economy, the job you hired him to do. After all, he was your senior economic adviser and you know that pot is your state’s largest cash crop. Now that you’ve fired Marcus, let’s hope the voters will fire you too this coming November!
Let’s make no mistake about it, I’m sure it was no secret to Boxer’s staff that Stanley was brining his ‘green leafy substance’ to the office. If Boxer’s staff knew it, she had to know it too. And I’m also sure he was not the only Boxer staffer that’s bringing pot to the office. The only reason Stanley got fired was because he got caught.
BOXER AIDE MARCUS STANLEY CHARGED WITH MARIJUANA POSSESSION

The Los Angeles Times reports that Marcus Stanley, an aide to Sen. Barbara Boxer, was arrested Tuesday and charged with marijuana possession while entering the Hart Senate Office Building.
Sgt. Kimberly Schneider, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Capitol Police, said officers observed Marcus Stanley, 43, with a "green leafy substance that tested positive for marijuana." He was released later on Tuesday, she said. Stanley had been working for Boxer's senate office since January 2009 as a senior economic adviser.
Because the charge was a misdemeanor, Stanley was released soon after being charged. He quit Boxer's staff shortly thereafter.
"Marcus Stanley is no longer with this office," said Zachary Coile, a spokesman for Boxer, in a statement released on Wednesday. "He submitted his resignation and Sen. Boxer accepted it because his actions yesterday were wrong and unacceptable."
