Yes you are right.

In California we voted that some patients should be given access to prescription marijuana. Other states have simular laws. Recently the administration went to the Supreme Court to try to nullify our vote. Yet when we were getting scammed by Enron, a Texas company I believe, the President refused to step in saying it was a problem for the state to deal with. Is it me or is this crazy world? Either you are for less central government or you are not. It's more important to deny people medication than stopping criminals? Many of these people are going to die and are suffering horribly. Is it the moral thing to do, to take away the only thing that may help ease their pain? What you do in your own home is your business as long as you don't hurt anyone else.
Fire away,
Rick
