U.S. Representative Wally Herger, Republican-CA, responded with a two-page letter that actually looked like it had been typed, had a much better look than the typical 'form letter' ... anyway, although Congressman Herger was totally against medical marijuana, and touted repeatedly the "you already have Marinol to use" ... (thanks Wally, maybe you can afford that shit, I can't) ... I will say that Herger's reply was very well researched, obviously he put a LOT of effort into preparing that response letter ... this is what we're up against ...

Write your elected officials !! ... tell them what you want in an intelligent letter ... remember the old saying .. "keep your friends close, but keep your enemies closer" ... the only thing these vultures understand is VOTES and CASH ... since most of us are light on cash, we need to let them know what we expect from them ... they don't want to lose votes, that means they might have to get a real job ! ... :smokin:
I live in San Francisco and i can tell you that Feinstein is not popular with many of us here. I am straight, but i know many gay people who do not vote or support Feinstein. We have an event that takes place in front of her Market Street Office(downtown SF) where people dress up like her and make fun of her. She called Medical Cannabis Users a " pain" in the butt". We havent stopped bothering her since.
We have more clubs that any other place in the world.:thumbsup:
