    He did say medical marijuana but he should still stay out of it. There are many things that Obama lied about. He thinks we are stupid.~

    I know Obama is against legalization, but I had no clue his alias was U.S. Atty. Gen. Eric H. Holder Jr. The article also didn't say Obama ordered this action and it isn't a change from what the feds have said under EVERY administration at all.

    There are plenty of things to dislike all professional politicians of any party about. Do we really have to start making unsupported assumptions to justify that or can't we just be woman enough to say "l just don't like partisan hacks"? You're excused from womaning up if you're not a woman, btw. We're just generally better at simply indicating we just don't like people and being catty. It's part of our charm.

    Why are Californians asserting that Arizona can not have their very own interior reach immigration regulations, yet that California could have their very own marijuana regulations? California could have been extra advantageous off leaving properly sufficient on my own. Now they have placed the Justice branch in a position the place the plausibility of "medicinal marijuana use" is flatly defined as entertainment... making it right this moment adversarial to the "spirit" of the Federal regulation. The JD must be consistent.

    He meant medical marijuana, not recreational marijuana.

    He is a liar, but in this instance, you are just misinformed.
