While the Senate was debating equal pay for women on Tuesday, Sen. Charles Grassley (R-IA) took to the floor to criticize President Barack Obama for allowing states to weaken the punishments for using marijuana and other drugs.
If he is really for states rights, wouldn't he be cheering states taking their rights from the federal government?
That he want's smaller government unless it's punishing pot smokers by putting them in private prisons that give him kick backs, enforcing restrictions on what happens in people's bedrooms, and keeping homosexual's from marrying. This silliness has gotten to the point even Fox News is pointing out they are getting on the wrong side of issues. Even Fox News pointed out that if they wish to have people vote for the GOP alternative to the ACA...they should actually have a plan instead of mumbling it's coming sometime.

Why do you ASSume that every Republican wants "smaller government" ?
I don't understand a federal government that brings law suits against states for one law but excuses other laws. Who wants to live in a country that lets potheads abundantly thrive but encourages voter fraud, baby murdering and corrupt lifestyles. Sounds like a corrupt low class country to me. It is more like a corrupt third world country. You elect a corrupt person for president and that is what you get. Pothead president, pothead country.
Why do some assume that every Democrat wants larger government?
Might want to save that comment for a thread on a Dem Congress critter.
