That's my take on it. The republicans would definitely be out for his blood- even the ones who claim now that the drug policy doesn't make sense. Because as we know, even if they are for something, they can find a way to be against it if Obama tries to do it. Their hypocrisy is startling- but we're stuck with it.

has anybody gotten the youtube embed feature to work on the lame SI editor? Sure. But this was a duplicated post. See my next one for the solution.

I think our drug laws are stupid and marijuana is harmless to helpful in the general scheme of things, but I can understand Obama being hesitant to take it on frontally- what's the point when the Republicans would never let any legislation pass and would pillory him relentlessly for the attempt? Still, a little benign neglect would seem easy enough to manage. Oh well. There's no question that this needs to be addressed at the federal level. And there's virtually no chance that it will be, given the current state of affairs in Congress.
