The use of so-called “medical marijuana” has become increasingly prevalent in the United States. It has also blossomed into a growing cottage industry. Marijuana has been legal in several countries for medical use since the early 1990‘s. The first U.S. state to legalize marijuana for medical use was, not surprisingly, California in 1996. It is now legal in thirteen states to possess and to grow limited amounts of it for medical use. (Click on title to read full story) 
Earlier this year, actress and professional liberal bigot Janeane Garofalo accused blacks and women who do not support Barack Obama of suffering from Stockholm syndrome. She was being interviewed by fellow bigot Keith Olbermann, who, big surprise, enthusiastically agreed with her. During their mutually supportive time together they accused conservatives, and essentially anyone unsupportive of Obama's policies, of being racists. Garofalo concluded that blacks and women who think for themselves and come to conclusions that disagree with her own are mentally deranged! Now there is a true supporter of liberty and equality.

On Monday, June 8, 2009 the Oregon Legislature will begin debate on HB 2009-C, “Oregon’s 21st Century Health Care System”. Of course, Oregon’s brilliant governor and the liberal yahoos in the Oregon legislature completely ignore the fact that the Oregon Health Plan, “Oregon’s 20th Century Health Care Plan”, was a complete failure. Liberals are very constructive. They construct each new failure on the foundation of preceding failures. They drive ever forward, looking straight ahead, never looking back. Pedal to the metal all the way, damn the brakes and never look at the reflection in the rear view mirror. They never have the baggage, or the benefit, of hindsight. I honestly believe that my dog can reflect on how his past actions have affected his current situation better than liberals can. I thought of Ronald Reagan when he responded to Jimmy Carter: “There you go again.” (To read full article click on title above)
