So they've completely run out of ideas.

Although I am against pot prohibition, I do not see such as an issue that would strike fear into the average GOP Senator.

The phrase Focus on Marijuana is intrinsically funny.

the guy is pretty much saying that African-americans are primarily motivated by pot.

someone’s race riot sirens should be going off somewhere.

I don’t see how appointing a constitutionalist will hurt states rights arguments over cannabis.

Is it a schedule one drug? If so, it should be removed.

Dead letter. Marijuana legalization is well on its way, and not the issue the author thinks it is.

What will hurt the Democrats and their Marxist allies is if a few more high profile marijuana/drugs traffic accidents kill a few more innocent people.

The media has been burying the now visible trend that a lot of “drug” drunk drivers have used marijuana and other drugs which have combined into a deadly combination.

ALso, a study out of England, if I remember correctly, said that new more powerful strains of marijuana are hurting smokers and possibly killing some of them.

The Republicans should run on a campaign slogan, “God gave you your body and your mind. Why destroy them or Why would you want to destroy them”?

Anti-prohibition is a conservative issue - it’s about reining the federal government back into its Constitutional bounds.

9th and 10th amendments forbid the current controlled substances laws, and a genuinely conservative, law-abiding court will overturn them.

Hauser is paranoid. There’s no indication that Kavanaugh is more against pot than any other future nominee. Apparently, Hauser is too deluded to realize what Democrats really want to do with the pool of slaves in reserve.

The pot ploy has been tried in many campaigns. I think it’s hilarious. Blacks get the bad end of it but pot is so white now.

Watch Benny Goodman with Peggy Lee doing “Why Don’t You Do Right” at the Stage Door Canteen. If he’s not higher than a kite, I don’t know what it looks like...

>> Recall that Sessions soured on the KKK not due to abhorrence of their violent racism, but over his discovery that many KKK members smoked pot (seriously). <<

It’s hard to take anyone seriously when they make idiotic claims like this. Yeah, Sessions fought tooth and nail for the death penalty becuase someone smoked pot. Zheesh.

Dopers and stoned-out druggies don’t vote.
