INAUGURAL ECSTASY

By JAMES TENAFLY

During a drug bust earlier this week police in Texas found some truly inspired political memorabilia. Among the suspects cache of coke and heroin police spotted dozens of orange Flinstones vitamin-esque tablets in the shape of Barack Obama’s face. The commander-in-chief’s visage found its way onto some semi-decent blotter earlier this year but the pills are a first. It’s nice to think that those collectors of GHW and Barbara Bush slippers and Spiro Agnew bottle openers will troll eBay to add the contraband to their collection. Anyone hoping to roll off the pills may be in for a disappointment, however. According to ecstasydata.org the tablets contain nary a trace of MDMA: It’s basically a caffeine pill with BZP and TFMPP, the ingredients in Legal X. That’s hardly change we can believe in. Zing!
