Think there might be an agenda there? It's hard to argue that marijuana doesn't help some people with certain conditions.

My cousin, now deceased, was a state trooper and later a state's attorney. He worked undercover narcotics for awhile when he was a trooper. At the age of 49 he was diagnosed with colon cancer that had metastasized into the liver and had to undergo chemo. He had me score weed for him after a couple of sessions and I believe he was sharing it with other chemo patients. He was a political lawyer at the end of his career and I have to admit I got a kick out of going into Democratic Headquarters and plunking down an envelope of weed on his desk from time to time. :) Bottom line is he overcame nausea and was able to eat, and I think it prolonged his life.
