Medicines, mostly prescription drugs, were involved in nearly 60% of overdose deaths that year, overshadowing deaths from illicit narcotics.
number of deaths from marijuana usage? ZERO

You are right, he should have gone after Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld for getting us into a war under false pretenses; wiretapping Americans without warrants; arresting Americans without charges; firing U.S. Attorneys for not prosecuting Democrats for political gain, etc.

He's carried out the same lawless policies so I"m not sure what your point is by specifically pointing to Bush? Yes, Bush broke laws, just as Obama has.

Obama is a tyrant and a control freak. He has to have his paws into everything. That way when he "allows" something people will slobber all over him as if he is doing them a favor. I got an idea leave everybody the hell alone and stop ruining our country.

What the hell are you squealing about. Read the title of the thread. Obama isn't as cool as Bush was case closed.

Oh, you live in Ohio? you've got nothing to worry about then, unless you're selling and shipping dope to those legalized states. Marijuana trafficking across some state lines might be illegal.
Why smoke the crap anyways? It's bad for you.

Acording to dear leader republicans haven't done anything for his entire term in office so they are leaving us all alone. Unless dear leader is LYING yet again.
