Government Shutdown 2013 Over After Snoop Dogg Suggests House Speaker John Boehner Should Smoke Some Weed + Rapper Makes Another Name Change
The government shutdown of 2013 may soon be over, but everyone is still buzzing over Snoop Dogg offering House Speaker John Boehner a joint.
This week, as the government shutdown dragged on, the rapper had a simple suggestion that could lead to a resolution.
As a worshiper of sweet Mary Jane, Snoop implied that weed would be quite the herbal remedy.
"Chill tha fucc out n smoke sumthin," tweeted Snoop, with the hashtags #snoopify and #politicalbullshit.
The tweet was also accompanied by a picture of Boehner wearing a do-rag, sporting a gold chain, grabbing a beer can in a paper bag, and holding a joint in his mouth.

If that wasn't enough of an attention grabber, the West Coast rapper also announced that he is changing his name a second time around.
Instead of being called Snoop Lion, he now wants to be called Snoopzilla for 7 Days of Funk, a new album he collaborated on with singer Dam-Funk.
"We're the babies of the Mothership," Snoopzilla said in a statement, according to Rolling Stone. "I've had funk influences in my music my whole career. Dam-Funk is cold. He's keeping the funk alive and I knew I had to get down with him."
Snoopzilla was inspired by Parliament-Funkadelic's Bootsy Collins, who was often referred to as Bootzilla.
"Faden Away," the first official single off the album was released yesterday on iTunes. The entire project will debut on December 10th.
