The Lies of Barack "Hussein" Obama
Amid an increased crackdown on medical marijuana producers across the nation, including a recent
high-profile raid on a California
training school, President Barack Obama faced questions in a new
interview with Rolling Stone about the seeming disconnect between his 2008 campaign rhetoric and his administration's actions since he took office.
"I'm not going to be using Justice Department resources to try to circumvent state laws [on medical marijuana],"
Obama promised in 2008, according to an earlier
Rolling Stone report. But Attorney General Eric Holder
announced in 2010 that federal authorities would
continue to prosecute individuals for marijuana possession, despite its legalized status in some states.
The Huffington Post's Lucia Graves
reported recently on subsequent enforcement activity:
Since then, the administration has unleashed an interagency cannabis crackdown that goes beyond anything seen under the Bush administration, with more than 100 raids, primarily on California pot dispensaries, many of them operating in full compliance with state laws. Since October 2009, the Justice Department has conducted more than 170 aggressive SWAT-style raids in 9 medical marijuana states, resulting in at least 61 federal indictments, according to data compiled by Americans for Safe Access, an advocacy group.
Lets tell it like it is unclebuck above we can read obamas stance and lies. Romney on the other hand has specifically said he would not interfere with states marijuana laws!
