President Obama Laughs At Marijuana Legalization

Quote:

In the future, I don't think voting on one principle alone-like mmj, is enough to elect a president. We need to study the person, history and all the failures that were posted on this site prior to the election he contrived in Illinois! Pscho4Bud, posted a lot of it and many others. Obama was clear during election he would leave medical mj alone, nothing else! I heard it loud and clear and felt---nothing really changes.

Yes yes I agree from the start he never said he was in favor of legalization.
In short all he said was he didnt believe in spending tons of money on circumventing state laws. Nothing more nothing less.


However what upsets me is his ability to laugh at such a small piece of his massive puzzle at hand and turn it into a joke. So what do you do?
Smile be nice and write write write. Rite?

Peace.

Can I get a little rep points?

true, and midterm elections will be starting next year, i bet a repub congress would wipe the grin off his face. better yet, think independent party! Libertarian and Greens!! start planting your canidates now! :greenthumb:

I believe because of the Controlled Drug Act, that the Executive Branch now has the nearly sole responsibility for ending, or continuing, this deadly violent cannabis prohibition policy that they have put upon us. I call upon "the people's President" to act now, remove cannabis from the drug schedule. Do it quickly and don't look back. Tell the critics to fuck off. Everyday you wait adds to growing feeling among Americans, and the world, that whole thing is just a fraud.

btw, I voted for McCain. :jointsmile: i knew the dems are full of shit. McCain wouldn't have done anything either but at least he was a war hero.

exactly. that reminds me in the bill in Sac last month it talked about how they planned for a certain percentage increase in cannabis usage if the bill was put into law, to meet the tax revenue goals. :wtf: are Californian's willing smoke out more to help the state out with their budget?? :stoned: i thought it was kinda funny, anyways.

good point, he never promised he would legalize, he said he would respect the rights of the states, which he has done, with a few notable exceptions in California. The state legislatures still seems to be the way to go to make any real impact on the ground. I believe the vast majority of cannabis arrests are by state and local police, not the federalies. :twocents:

I would like to see all four of the southern border states legalize cannabis. California and Arizona already have bills being discussed. Texas would be the wildcard I'd imagine, but if they all four came together to legalize cannabis I think think we could see the border violence start to die out as their largest market sector leaves them behind. Plus, just the act of a state legalizing will flush out the die hard prohibitionists/crooks, so they can be identified and plucked. ;)

I always knew he was a tool.
It is not my fault, I wrote in Ron Paul.

No, I don't remember the email link, but you can go to his website and send one I think.

Ron Paul 2012. We gotta start campaigning for him now. Something we should have done years ago to gain enough support. Show him that we want him, a man that actually knows what he is talking about.

He never really publically said he was going to do anything. If you really want reform there was only one candidate that repeatedly states his position on this. And thats Ron Paul.

AMEN!

I would have, too, if we could write in canidates here. I couldn't even vote for him in the primaries because of the election rules in my state :mad: unless I register as a republican, which I might do in 2012. I might as well have I voted mostly repub anyway for national elections last year. I would vote third party but we don't have such a thing here in these parts. We've got two parties and both kinds of music (country and western). :rastasmoke:
