The Cover Of The Rolling Stone

I'm confused by an article in Rolling Stone Magazine

The Spill, The Scandal and the President

Not really so much by the article, but (as I sit here on June 11th 2010) by this disclaimer.

This article originally appeared in RS 1107 from June 24, 2010.

Is the writer rolling stoned?

That's dope and the scientific community is united in that fact.

We take all kinds of pills, that give us all kind of thrills
