Ashton Kutcher Defends Michael Phelps' Bong Hit

Apparently the 15 minutes Ashton Kutcher got last week wasn't enough for him because he's back in the press this week defending Michael Phelps and his need for weed.

"God forbid he hit a bong," Kutcher wrote on his Twitter account on Monday. "Go ask your 20-year-old kid what they did last weekend.

He added, "I'm not saying it was a smart move. But he doesn't need to be publicly outed for it. Whoever put the pic out is an a**!"

Phelps already issued a public apology saying: "I'm 23 years old and despite the successes I've had in the pool, I acted in a youthful and inappropriate way, not in a manner people have come to expect from me," he said.

"For this, I am sorry. I promise my fans and the public it will not happen again."

Not that we're condoning his behavior, but he's been so disciplined for so long, he just needed to be a kid and experiment. It's not like he's waking up and getting baked every morning.

He made a mistake and apologized for it, everyone needs to cut him some slack. What are your thoughts?

Just goes to show, you can smoke some pot, and still accomplish something with your life, even something extraordinary as he did. Decriminalize this, please !!

if one is being paid millions to swim an represent-then act accordingly-no one twisted his arm to become a role model-but like it or not he is. Deal.

I think he was just trying to even out the competition and keep things interesting for the next olympics... Plz, the kid is 23, and he was at a college party, if he did not hit that bong he should publicly apologize for it, because that would make him a freak.
