Barack "Chom Gang" Obama ordered the crackdown on the medical marijuana dispensaries in CA.
His administration also ordered the shutting down of Internet gaming sites in the USA.

Where is your liberal Messiah now? Trying to take other people's money to your applause. You ask so little from Dear Leader. Originally Posted by gnadfly

We don't know all the drugs Obama used, but we know he used a lot, and enjoyed it. He has said so. Why not do the right thing and quit making people less lucky than him (in that he was never arrested for doing what many people are in prison for doing) into criminals.

Did I say anything untrue? It was in Obama's book. I'd just like him to be consistent.

I never trusted another uniform after that day. It's impossible to tell which ones are true patriots and which ones are bought and paid for.

Can we just start over with a whole new group? No lobbying

By the way, your boy was a big doper too. Both in his youth, and quite a bit more recently than President Obama. His motivation regarding decriminalization is coming into focus now.....he's a stoner.

Of course the US's consumption of drugs is what is spurring the Mexican drug trade and social problems. If they want our help all the have to do is ask for it like Columbia did. They won't of course.

Drugs in the country will never be legalized. One, the religious / moral right and two, the anti-drug industries employ too many people.

So Johnson gets kudos for being open and honest and consistent about being a doper, while Obama gets snarky remarks about all the drugs he used when he was younger, right? I don't understand that.

You didn't know your boy was a doper, did ya? Too funny......

You simply refuse to understand. Go ahead. Whatever. If you read what you posted, you might get it.

Gary Johnson supports legalization. Obama does not.

And do some research, the medicinal qualities of marijuana are very good.

That's what I meant. Blackhawks, commandos and fighters just like we did in Columbia. Have you ever read "Killing Pablo"? Great book.

Is there a Doper party? Maybe NORML could sponsor Johnson in 2016 when he charges this windmill again? Form a PAC?

You're just being pissy because you didn't know that Johnson is a heavy doper with a personal stake in any drug legalization legislation. I bet he has investments in medical marijuana in addition to smoking it on a regular basis.

And, by the way, as I stated earlier, I agree with him. Also, as I have stated in another thread, Obama undoubtedly supports legalization/decriminalization as well. But, unlike your doper candidate, he's not so high all the time so that he can't realize that by uttering those words in public, he renders himself instantly unelectable.
