Dear Obama: Here is a way to trim a few billion out of the federal budget with the backing of the majority of the people.

End the war. Set the marijuana pow's free. End the criminal trials based on laws that the majority of Americans are against.

You are about to set potential terrorists free from gitmo. How about the thousands of US marijuana pow's right here in the United States?

Is having a plant worse than being a terrorist?

Clean out space in federal, state and local jails and prisons. Ease budget problems for states at the same time.

Clean off space in courtroom dockets and free up probation and parole manpower. Ease legal system overcrowding for the entire nation at every level.

And do it all with one single order.

All this would only take you a few seconds and very little effort. Only your signature. And I'm sure that thousands of lawyers across the nation would gladly draft the order for you. Some, perhaps, would even do it free of charge.

There is no reason to continue wasting government resources this way, given our current economic situation.

Get'er done on day one.
