The same media never reminds us the Bushlet is, too. The self righteous manner that our law enforcement agents have trampled on our civil rights has been ignored and over looked because of the demonization of the drug user. Only when someone you love gets caught up in the juggernaut, does the reality hit home. Just because I am against the war on drugs, does not mean I am pro drugs. It means I believe in humanizing the approach to solving the problems caused by drug abuse.
Repression only drives the problem further underground.
That results in one sitting president and one potential future president, who cannot afford to look soft on drugs, because the majority of the people need a scapegoat. It's my misfortune along with millions of other dazed and bewildered denizens to live in Florida, land of Jeb. And there's more to come. I'm a staunch Democrat, but even I was made a bit uneasy during the days of what appeared to be the beginnings of a dynastic Executive branch during the Kennedy years. But at least the Kennedys had something between their ears besides a dried spider and a paper clip.
