some laws are very unjust.!!! one only needs to look at history to figure that one out.. problem with this country is our priorities are so twisted it makes me sick..

if they really wanted to keep a big percentage of hard drugs out of the usa their would be strict border enforcement by the military.. It will never work with weed though just to easy to grow,, weed should be legalized anyhow most people that smoke bud are good citizens..

So, does that mean Obama is an anarchist?

Yes, if you can get laws written to that effect. Good luck with that since they finance the legislator's campaigns...

The point in the debate when a liberal knows they're losing an argument and resort to insults.

Obama is a traitor to his sworn oath to defend and uphold the laws of the land and the United States Constitution.

You can tell when somebody can't read when they call a pro-liberty, anti-tax, anti-welfare poster a liberal.

I very clearly laid out my ideals in the last couple pages, if those are "liberal" ideals, then most "liberals" are quite confused. (This post also shows that you are stuck in the two party duopoly, I sincerely feel sorry for you.)

I want you to re-read what you just said, and realize that you did not add to the conversation about the issue, and called me a name.

Regardless, I sincerely doubt he knows the definition of the word "principle", he doesn't take principled stances, his views are based on his emotions about how things effect his sensibilities. Just because the truth hurts, does not mean that it is "resorting to insults."

I wish. Anarchism is based on a respect for individual rights, something Obama does not have.

"Liberal" is a derogatory term?

Why do we allow the federal government to tell adults what they can eat, drink or smoke?
Why? Ask the bible thumping retards in this country. It's not Obama's fault as to why the drinking laws resemble a muslim country.

Here's a map of medical marijuana.

Which states have legalized medical marijuana?

Note the similarity? Don't like the feds prosecuting this then actually act conservative, stop complaining about Obama, stop voting for a right winger every time and actually talk about real freedom. Sorry, but conservatives in this country are why marijuana laws haven't changed on the federal stage.
