LOL

But when Bush said he was going to only wire tap suspicious people who made calls outside the USA liberals went crazy. Now we find Obama is hacking anyone and everyone it is different.

Shoe is on the other foot now.

Maybe the CHOOM wagon will come back to play as Obama surely knows what being a druggie is from his past.

Go ahead legalize it. We will see a huge trend of pot heads killing themselves off one by one. Lets just hope those pot heads dont kill innocent people who dont need pot to get through the day so they can have all their internal problems go away for a while.

typical GOP scare tactics. You really should try to do some critical thinking on marijuana, Sunny.

The article you posted proves my point-the people making the most noise about legalization are Professional Prohibitionists. The author of the article and his employer have financial interests in the continuation of the criminalization of weed and therefore their opinions don't mean squat.

It is really odd, we're talking about the full legalization of marijuana, so you decide to introduce things that the President of the USA is not stopping, apparently as some sort of defense for the treasonous freedom hating actions of the typical conservative republican Rick Scott.

Anyway, I'm certainly not cool with any of the things you mentioned.

No matter what the pro Weed movement presents on possible miss leading research. Bottom line is there is many of us who resent the dumbing down of America. Conservatives love freedom, but there is products like pot that is dangerous to the general public.

If one smokes they will be mentally gone by 60 years just on joint at a time. Besides I would not want to see my kid or anyone else's, smoke pot!

Even a majority of republicans (which I may or may not be registered as) support this medical marijuana measure. And the fact that you think pot is dangerous is so laughable, so ridiculous, so vile, so disgusting, so repugnant, so despicable, so disingenuous, so idiotic, so deplorable, so incorrect, and so scary that I take comfort in the fact that your opinion has been relegated to a permanent minority status and is being defeated in state after state in this great country.

And if you really want to talk about the "dumbing" down of America keep watching Fox and/or MSNBC and getting into this political tug of war, left vs right bs. This weed issue is actually a very bi/non-partisan issue and has been a breath of fresh vapor.

We are not talking about Medical . That is a true need.
Wow, to use all of those adjectives to get your point across, you must be addicted to something or your own Ego. I thought this was suppose to be a civil debate?
As your favorite party favor no.

Well if the measure fails, I guess DEA will be paying Pro Weed guys a house visit!

And if it passes it's not like anything has changed with the federal law. And as for yours (and other's) assumptions that I am some stoner is nonsensical. I've stated multiple times I do not really partake, sorry to burst your bubble. Trust me, if I wanted to I would, just not my thing except on rare occasion. I have no reason to lie about that so it's silly you insist otherwise.

Let's ignore the fact that everything you claim about marijuana is totally false nonsense and focus directly on how it is clear that you, like so many of today's fake conservatives have a messed up concept of freedom, and you really should not pretend to be speaking for all conservatives.

Should the government force me to go to bed and monitor my french fry intake as well?

The anti-marijuana crowd does not have any valid reasons to support their position and keep this foolish and silly drug war going, (making billions of dollars for corporations and violent drug lords are not valid reasons) so they resort to painting pro-freedom individuals like you as crazy drug addicts in an attempt to discredit you.
