Thanks for the thread, RainDog.

So much for democracy, right?

It's a good thing I'm all bark and no bite because, when I read about this history, I really want to kick some teeth in. Newt Gringrich would be at the top of my list for recommending the death penalty for marijuana possession over a certain amount.

What a motherfucking asshole. But he was also lecturing Clinton about sex while his secretary was blowing his teeny weenie on her hands and knees under his desk... after she found it, I suppose... while his wife was in the hospital undergoing chemotherapy. Now he and blow jobber are married and such good, devout Catholics. LOL.

They both make my skin crawl to see their pictures.

But at least Congress kept some other cancer patient from getting marijuana if she were undergoing chemo in D.C.

It's the Republican way! fuck over the people while blowing some asshole for money.

He thought he was talking to Callista when he said to Occupy protestors: "Go get a job after you take a bath." —Newt Gingrich.

He said: "There's no question at times of my life, partially driven by how passionately I felt about this country, that I worked far too hard and things happened in my life that were not appropriate." -- Newt Gingrich, explaining in 2011 why he cheated on his first two wives. He carried on the first affair while his wife was suffering from cancer, and the second while he was orchestrating Bill Clinton's impeachment.

So, he thinks his dick is his country?

eta - obviously I have his life story wrong. he was getting a blow job from Callista while lecturing Clinton, while also humming "anything you can do I can do badder..."

(I have to delete the other thing I wrote here b/c it would surely get alerted on for vulgarity. Up the rhymes with mass with a rhymes with map phone.)

Here in California, I've seen federal agencies come after our medical dispensaries hard, under both Pres. Bush and Pres. Obama. They haven't managed to curtail it much, but they have back-door taxed the Hell out of it through seizures. Apparently they object to the dispensaries paying a nice cut to the State, but not to the Fed. They want to outlaw it and tax it, both, lol.

ETA: I'm new here and not familiar with all the rules and practices yet, but shouldn't this be in the "drug policy" section? Not a criticism, is honest question to which I don't know the answer, and I'm trying to learn so I don't put a foot wrong through ignorance.

You'll find quite a few of them related to cannabis posted here, and not just from me.

People also post cat pictures here... so, not a lot of rules in GD unless something is part of a flame fest.

Thanks for the answer. Just getting to know the place.

Your concern for the workings of this site is remarkable.
