Well this looks like good news: Obama: U.S. should not act on pot use in Washington, Colorado Doubt Romney would've said that, I knew Obama was a better choice at least in this matter as Romney vowed to fight marijuana "tooth and nail".
Yeah that was also mentioned in Time Magazine's interview with Obama on his person of the year nomination, about Congress acting soon. It's about priorities. I wonder if that takes backseat to hunting mosquito's.It will be interesting to watch Congress on this next year. The article indicates that they may take it up as early as January. It may make legislators in states that do not allow voter based initiatives more inclined to legalize or at least allow medical marijuana. Thank you for posting that article
PERFECTThe Obama administration looked so promising at the beginning towards medical cannabis, even maybe towards ending the prohibition. But what started off so well, quickly went downhill as the DEA and Justice Dept went on to act terribly, IMO. However, with the recent votes in CO and WA & the lawsuit Americans for Safe Access vs. Drug Enforcement Administration that was just heard by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, ruling should come in the next month or 2. This is all really positive steps in the right direction. This fight won't be won overnight, but the attitudes are swinging the right way, and so are the votes and court rulings. Hopefully the ruling of ASA v DEA will continue that trend.

Considering he said the same thing about medicinal users in 2008 and then seeked the Feds on dispensaries....he's notorious for saying one thing and doing the exact opposite...
Shame on you for taking a politician's words seriously...
FOX?

Still no matter what you think about Obama,the dems stand for the regular people and the repub's stand for the RICH.

We are on the right path,you'll see little by little we WILL WIN SOON!!!!
Well said.I am not privy to lesser forms of comprehension, I apologize..
Democrats as well as Republicans represent their respective sects. I am of the mentality that the only true sect, is the human condition.. I care about you and I dont know you. I want you to get the most out of life, I hope that you find whatever it is in life that will bring you comfort, happiness and love, and I am at your service, but I will not choose one person over the next, rather Id seek to prove that only love can bring us together..
By choosing sides, you align not with those who seek to benefit the human race, rather control it.
My ability to perceive isn't something I can change, again, forgive me friend.
Please tell me that you don't REALLY believe this, and that you're just joking.Still no matter what you think about Obama,the dems stand for the regular people and the repub's stand for the RICH.

'Cause it's a two-horse race and he changed his bets
Is this some sort of a troll post? Anyone who thinks this country is on the "right path" is either form Greece or retarded.
The fact that you think the dems stand for the "Regular people" and the Repub stand for the "rich" proves you don't deserve to vote....period...You spew the same garbage that comes out of the politicians' own mouths!
'Cause it's a two-horse race and he changed his bets
Like it was just another brand of cigarettes
Some people judge and they just guess the rest
They can't understand that don't mean that you're blessed
They ought to catch the Express Next Stop No Where
That way you can forget
Jump up - hold on tight
Can't trust the promise or a guarantee
'Cause the man 'round the curve says that he's never heard
Of you or me
