Well I'll just stop you right there and remind you that President Obama (not a social conservative) is also saying no.

Your statement is quite funny. I'm a conservative who thinks you should be able to purchase and use marijuana to your heart's content. It's the liberal President Obama who doesn't want you to do it legally. Now you were saying someone should think about how they are acting?

Obviously social liberals are more for legalization than social conservatives. Fiscal conservatives may be more for legalization because it would mean less govt spending on the failed drug war.

Real conservatives those who want less government in our lives and less taxes certainly do. Ron Paul is one example. On the other hand the less educated Trump types love the Church and their morality being pushed on everyone else.

Polls show 60% of Dems in Favor 40% of GOP-- that sums it up.
