Penn Jillette's Sunday School Podcast has gotten a lot of attention after Penn went off on an Obama rant. At the center of the rant was the marijuana laws of California.

Magician Penn Jillette, of Penn & Teller, is angry at President Obama. He let the world know it during his podcast this past weekend. The rant was sparked after he and co-host, Michael Goudeau, pointed out the hypocrisy of a marijuana mention in Obama's 1995 memoir, "Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance".

In the memoir, Obama writes of his marijuana usage and adds "maybe a little blow," which set Penn off. "If Obama had been caught with the marijuana that he says he uses, and 'maybe a little blow'... if he had been busted under his laws, he would have done hard f*cking time," the magician says.

Although Penn himself has never tried marijuana or had a drink in his life, he stands up for pot smokers everywhere by calling out the government's marijuana policy on absolutely hypocritical and ludicrous.
