Paul/Frank co-sponsoring legalization bill - Cannabis Law and Politics - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

Saw this on CNBC today(06-21-2011), Ron Paul and Barney Frank will be introducing a legalization bill in a day or so.
I guess the more remarkable thing was how it was presented on CNBC. No snickers, just a few thoughts on how some states might actually see this a positive.
That's quite a change from the Prop 19 coverage(in the beginning anyways). Perhaps the momentum isn't quite dead.

Reps. Paul, Frank to Unveil Bill to Decriminalize Marijuana
By: CNBC.com

In an unlikely alliance, Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) and Barney Frank (D-MA) plan to introduce a bill on Thursday that would end the federal prohibition on marijuana.

The bill by the conservative Paul and liberal Frank would allow states to determine their own marijuana laws —including medical marijuana laws, without federal interference.

Paul will be a guest on the "Kudlow Report," tonight at 7 pm on CNBC.

That's really good news!
Ron Paul is the man.
Hopefully something good will come of this.

If every smoker and grower in this country voted for Ron Paul he would win! Make sure you ALL register to vote in your state and vote for Ron Paul in your Republican primary.

watched the interview, feeling OK on what i heard
presented as returning some power to the states, the end of federal prohibition
i can see this going forward for a bit, good circumstances for it
the last prohibition ended during a depression
