[nimue77]

Q: "Will you consider legalizing marijuana so that the government can regulate it, tax it, put age limits on it, and create millions of new jobs and create a billion dollar industry right here in the U.S.?" S. Man, Denton

A: President-elect Obama is not in favor of the legalization of marijuana.





The response above comes directly from his transition team and posted at change.gov

In his 1995 memoir, Obama mentioned smoking “reefer” in “the dorm room of some brother” and talked about “getting high.” Before Occidental, he indulged in marijuana, alcohol and sometimes cocaine as a high school student in Hawaii, according to the book.

that pic is awesome. thinking of dumping doutzen for that avatar. that was some shit like 25 years ago when he was at occidental.

very cool pic. Righty's must be killing themselves WISHING they had this during the primaries and general election.

3peet everyday you come on here saying righties would "do this and do that" but you know so little about conservatives that it is scary. A true conservative, of which there are very few, wants as little government intervention as possible especially in life choices (gambling, drugs, religion, abortion, gays). Your current "righties" are far more in line with your party's beliefs then in any time in the past 40 years. I'm assuming by "Righty's" you meant the religious right (a whole sector by themselves) but you really have no idea...you just know the terms and how to misuse them.

also very funny you 3 sheeple comment on "how cool" he is but do not respond to his obvious hypocrisy.

what an embarrassment

Honestly toiletroll, its because I don't give a shit. I don't give a flying fuck if you your a reagan republican, a christian conservative, neocon, radical evangelist, a social conservative, and on and on and on. In my eye's your all just republican's to me. Or in other words, "Righty's"

I'll leave it to you righty's to self classify which sect of the republican branch davidian you belong to. Its funny actually. You guys point so many fingers and try to distance yourselves from one another its the sole reason your party as a whole is flushing itself down the toilet and furthermore without identity and without leadership. I think lately I've even heard bullshit such as a Hannity Conservative and Rush Republican. LOL, seriously, what the fuck is that??:laughingb

 

[nimue77]

Interesting how all you guys will say is that the picture is cool.

The picture is jut something I added in...

ZERO response to Obama's hypocrisy and his totally dissing the people who voted legalization of Marijuana the #1 issue at Change.org, which no doubt is overwhelmingly populated by Obama voters. A one line negative response to the #1 topic. That's change for you!

Obama did pledge to order the DEA pigs to cease and desist with persecution of state-legal medical marijuana patients and providers.

Let's see if that happens in the next couple months.

And let's see if the man he names as new Drug Czar will continue to demonize marijuana or if he might instead finally - after almost 30 years of ONDCP - promote fact based drug education in place of longstanding federal government lies.

chief it's so sad that someone so young that pretends to be interested in politics knows so little and, obviously, reads so little. one day when you are all grown up you'll stop using cool slogans that your professors toss around and really understand what the fuck you are talking about. until then you are simply the dumbest poster on the political forum...and that's saying something!

LOL, is that all? First of all I thank you for the compliments about my youth. I'll take those all day long. But while you continue to smoke the Reagan peace pipe even though the man is removed from politics almost 20 years now, I rest my case. What was the matter with Bush Junior or his daddy's philosophies? One would think you'd have to something to say considering they ran this country for 16 years and you all stood vehemently behind them to boot. We missing something here? Looks to me its more like the space between your ears. ...or rather are these identifications just mere excuses?

Of course he won't legalize marijuana. Nor will he stop the DEA from arresting grannies and people in wheelchairs for choosing their own medication. It's all a big con. He will change absolutley nothing.
