Two parties, one policy. Shame.

Does this even help him politically? What the hell is he thinking?

It's been happening where I go to school as well:

Which is odd since Seattle seems to be fine. Anyways I have been impressed by how angry people have become, if this continues it could effect Washington's pot-legalization initiative this next year.

Ah, yet another reason to vote against Obama!  Getting rid of those damn dispensaries is job one in this country - a clear and present danger. You would think Obama would be more interested in taxing them, but I guess he thinks pot heads are not part of the "rich" cohort.

Oh yes, the do it for the children angle is just so precious. Why don't you think about educating them first, and firing all those incompetent teachers!

Oh look, the Feds are being assholes.  Meanwhile, the Pope is Catholic.

Wow. Way to go for the Prez on this one!

In other news, are you still supporting Perry?  Is it possible, that we might have a judgment problem here?

It's not really an "about-face" on policy, since this is what they've been doing all along, even if they said they weren't.

You know Romney would do the same right? Though I guess one can have "hope".

he probably faces pressure from the correctional industry and their unions, as well as the pharm. industry.

He would be worse. But you know, it isn't all about me now is it?    Granted, he chats up state's rights and all, so well, maybe not.

You're not going to fall for that, are you?  States' rights go out the window as soon as it comes to federal drug laws (much like protecting the sanctity of traditional marriage).

I am not banking on it no.
