Don't know how many of yall seen this, but just this past week Obama held a press conference in which all of the questions were submitted and voted on by american citizens on the internet. The top vote getter for among the issues was the legalization of Marijuana to bring 75-80 billion dollars into the economy through eliminating the petty war on drugs with mexico in which 75% of their trade is marijuana, releasing 890,000+ prison inmates who's crimes were non-violent and 90% were merely for the possesion of the substance, being able to tax the product 50$ (estimated) to the ounce making it about a $1 per joint, and providing a medical resource to so many patience whom desperatly need it. For each question that was addressed in the press confrence he went into great detail as to the pro's and con's, but when it came to this subject, he didn't even present a single one of the questions that were submitted, rather addressed the entire issue with a broad no and also goes on to riticule the online audience and gives a chuckle. Now I only bring this up because I have been noticing more and more news organizations are starting to take notice to the issue and are starting to SERIOUSLY consider the subject, and some are actually getting after Obama for his short answer and treating it as a much more serious subject. I just wanted to have yall be aware to the issue thats going on here and get your thoughts on it.

It's been in the open forum for days now... expand your horizons on this forum by taking a trip to some of the other benefits this site has to offer... youve been here since 2005 so I'm sure you know about all the other places.

If your going to give some one a hard time post a link to the other thread or else don't respond and let the thread in question fall into oblivion.

And I think this is a bad look for Obama, what a shame.

I guess the only thing I expected from Obama was to at least firmly address the issues with more then just a yes or no statements, also to pull us out of Iraq, but that shit aint happening either. He's calling for 20,000 more troops to be brought in to fight the war against Al-Queda as he's calling it now. It's like he's just a carbon copy of Bush, but this cat is spending more money and blowing up the dollar while he's at it. It is gonna be worthless in the next couple years, shits looking real fucked up man.

I couldn't have said this any better. Slowly but surly, people are starting to realize that no matter who is the President, miracles really do not happen overnight. :eyecross:

Yo Ron Paul son thats where it's at, although the Rep. and Dem. Parties never would let that cat in, he's all about tearing down the structure corparate america has built our government into and bringing back to a government for the people. You ever get a chance listen to what that dudes got to say, he know what he's talking bout. Fucking Fox News even censored part of his debate back during the Republican debates in which he was basicly saying that our government is just working for corporate america and that we need to abolish the Federal Reserve and the IRS.

Obama cannot get us out of Iraq.... because powers GREATER THAN HIM got us into it. Obama is a puppet for the globalist agenda. nothing has changed but a black face.
