Do conservative marijuana users not believe this? If so, why?
that is a good question. if you look at Congress and their voting record on allowing med use in states where it is legal, the dems are historically about 10 to 1 in our favor over the repubs. Not as good the Independents, but not bad.

At the executive branch, a repub Nixon started the "war on drugs" and repub Reagan accelerated it. dem Carter tried to decrim but was shot down but dem Clinton has the dubious honor of the most cannabis arrest for any president, although in fairness Clinton got served with a repub Congress two years in, much like Obama is about to experience.

I campained and voted for John McCain but looking at Obama so far my thought is he has probably helped us more than any other President so far (I know that is not saying much :jointsmile by ackowledging the state's right to medical cannabis. Clinton and Bush didn't do that. I still remember seeing the fake Time magazine cover on the wall at my favorite club right after Bush Jr. was elected that read "We're fucked".

But, I wonder sometimes if they hadn't found that note from the DEA that read "all hippies must die" if the war on California wouldn't still be on. So, in summary, they all suck but Obama seems to have sucked the least as far as states' right to med use. :twocents:

okay, let the 'sheeple' rants begin :rastasmoke:
