He’s a politician. He could comfortably embrace all three of those positions.

That is fundamentally untrue, & you know it. Both Rats & Pubs, Congressmen, Doctors, Lawyers, & millions of other Americans are disgusted with the failed War on Drugs. A recent Gallup poll found that 44 percent of Americans favor legalization for any purpose, from medical to recreational, up from 31 percent in 2000. Surely, nearly every other person you encounter is not a doper?

They realize that the WOD is a gross intrusion on Fourth Amendment rights, & do not believe the US gov’t has ANY Constitutional authority to prohibit ANY substance for personal consumption.

Is it OK with you that the Federal Gov’t can dictate what you may or may not consume, & can jail you for failure to obey? This question extends far beyond illicit drugs to food & medicinal drugs, as well as other consumables. Are you comfortable with the likes of Pelosi, Reid, Kerry, McCain, & Graham making these decisions for you & your children, both now & in the future?

This is so rich in irony.

OK, he might not be a hypocrite... in that case he’s schizophrenic.

Only drug dealers, drug warriorswar whores, & nannies

 I think this not only sounds better, but is more accurate as well.

“Actually, only dopers want drugs to be legalized, and they project on every one else.”

All Libertarians are dopers? LOL.
