It's healthier than smoking cigarettes if that's what you mean.
weed smoke doesnt contain formaldehyde and all that crap in cigarettes.
Sort of but not really true. No one does a "long term" study in the sense that they follow patients around for decades and see if they get cancer; for a number of reasons these types of studies are impractical and not necessarily accurate. Instead scientists are much more likely to look at cross-sections of populations and find correlations between activities and diseases, which is what has happened in the two largest studies conducted on cannabis's link to cancer (done by Daniel E. Ford, MO. of Johns Hopkins University and Doctor Donal Tashkin in association with the National Institute on Drug Abuse). In both cases the results showed rather clearly that cannabis use, even long-term and heavy, is in no way correlated with cancer of the head, neck, throat, or lungs (well, that's not entirely true; Tashkin showed that people who smoked pot are slightly less likely to develop these cancers than people who do not).

because the chemicals in the cigarettes are worse. I mean is there really a surgeons general warning about POT...last time i checked there wasnt..
I love dat stuff.
because drugs aren't healthy at all
Of course they're not healthy, but it's proven that you still live a healthier lifestyle smoking pot, than you do smoking tobacco.
