legal marijuana which will create more Democrat voters.

Marijuana turns non-Dems into Dems? Have any proof?

Alcohol is mentioned in the Bible and is part of the Western tradition. Pot is alien to all this.

Alcohol is more addictive than pot, and unlike pot can kill you in a single evening of use.

Cannabis was widely known and accepted in the U.S. by the early 20th century; many Americans didn't realize until after it was banned (for supposedly making Mexicans crazy and helping Negro jazz musicians seduce white women) that the now-illegal "marihuana" was the same thing as cannabis.

So is meth which is synthetic

What's wrong with synthetics? Do you take no synthetic medicines? Use no plastics?

and an outright poison

As is alcohol - and as isn't marijuana.

and so is crack cocaine. Why not make (also synthetic) LSD legal!

Why not indeed ... unlike alcohol it's nonaddictive.

You know I’ve smoked a lot of grass
O’ Lord, I’ve popped a lot of pills
But I never touched nothin’
That my spirit could kill

So grass and pills are OK with you?

Everyone knows that legalizing pot will create more Obama voters and more Democrat voters. If you took a poll of pot smokers I am sure they would tell you that at least 70% will be voting for Obama....If they can get their stoned asses to the polls

Then you have some pot heads who are libertarians and a few are conservative I suppose. You are like the gays who want gay marriage and overturn long held Western traditions and religion to promote their perverted anal-centric lifestyles. The pot legalizers and drug legalizers are not content with the traditional intoxicant of Europeans and NE Asians. Alcohol. Instead you ninnies need your 3rd world drugs like marijuana, cocaine, heroin (poppies)and don’t seem to have much of a problem with synthetics drugs, LSD and methedrine

That is from the song, The Pusher. It is a song, snap out of it.

"Look for Obozo to suddenly have a need to make a Latin American Tour to ‘shore up our sagging relations’ with Uruguay..........."
The article said they're considering legalizing pot not cocaine!

Oh wait ... nevermind. ;-)

I’ll go out on a limb and predict a sudden spike in tourism from Argentina and Chile.

Maybe politically correct, socialist politicians will follow the dopers down to Uruguay in order to stay with their voting base.

Where's the proof that this number would be larger if pot was legal?

Then you have some pot heads who are libertarians and a few are conservative I suppose. You are like the gays who want gay marriage and overturn long held Western traditions and religion to promote their perverted anal-centric lifestyles.

Bad analogy - homosexual activity, unlike pot, is already legal.

The pot legalizers and drug legalizers are not content with the traditional intoxicant of Europeans

Not everyone enjoys vomiting and hangovers ... go figure. Why should intoxicants be legally limited to "traditional" ones? Should heterosexual sex positions be legally limited to "traditional" ones?

So you're quoting, without comment, song lyrics you disagree with? Why?

Or maybe the replacement of utopian drug-free fantasies with practical policies will migrate up from Uruguay to the USA.

Apparently it's because fanatical opposition to it makes FReepers post dopey stuff.
