Isn't it possible to put this to the Surpreme Court and see if they are
willing to rule on this issue? It's apparantly "unconstitutional" for the
feds to do this sort of stuff. Or, and I suspect this might be the case, are
most members of the U.S> Surpreme court in fact Republicans who are afraid
of allowing medical marijuana in some states fearing that it might lead to
inter state commerce and corruption of American youth? (Man, am I glad to
live in The Netherlands where it really isn't that big a deal this whole
marijuana stuff...:-)   )
