Mexico to legalize drugs? Mexico's President Fox has indicated that he is willing to approve a bill to legalize personal amounts of most major drugs. While the White House hasn't made any formal statements yet on the issue, they are reportedly not amused, according to the London Times. "(Our representatives) urged Mexican leaders to review the legislation and to avoid the perception that drug use would be tolerated in Mexico to prevent drug tourism," said a White House official. Asked to elaborate, he added: "Look at Amsterdam. You’re British. You know what we mean."

Sorry 'bout that. Fox just recently announced his intention to sign, and the White House has finally started commenting on the matter, so that probably explains the rush of new articles.
