We're talking about Florida here. Besides- aren't some of you conservatives all about state's rights? I can almost guarantee 100% that if Obama had on the other hand said that no- FL could not pass this law- that you would blame him for that too.So in other words, FL is using its "State's rights" to make bongs illegal. Don't like it? Move to CO.

Color me embarrassed.

I thought Obama would use the Presidency's ironclad constitutional authority over the Florida governor and state legislature to stop this; boy, was I ever wrong!

Thanks, Obama!

Yeah... I mean yesterday we also read a story in which it was claimed that it was all Obama's fault for not allowing some little kid to have free junk food at school. Shame! Shame!

Yay! More reasons to put kids in private prisons, for possessing bongs.

I gotta buy more Corrections Corp Stock.

How about pellet burners attached to nitrous oxide pressure injected nasal cannulas.

Bongs are for wusses.

Hey. You guys are getting away from the OP's desire to make this out to be Obama's fault. Surely some of you must agree.

Florida to outlaw bongs.

1. Florida governor Rick Scott is a Republican. How do you blame this on liberals, the Democratic Party, or Obama.

2. The law is stupid and should be removed. If I were a bong salesman, I'd stamp a virgin Mary on a bong and sue the state for violation of the First Amendment.

3. Obama is a total fucking hypocrite on pot use. He wouldn't even be eligible to be president had he been prosecuted for his pot use like most other people are. This would be actually good grounds for impeachment (as the cocaine use by Bush was) and might actually motivate that asshole into doing the right thing for once.

4. How the hell is Obama's shortcomings the fault of liberals? All us liberals were against Obama and Hilary because of their support for the evil Nazi USA Patriot Act.

5. Bush was a damn hypocrite on drug usage as well. Calling him the most pot-friendly president is ridiculous. I think that was Washington.

"Make the most you can of the Indian Hemp seed and sow it everywhere." - President George Washington, 1794

6. The fundamental problem is not enough liberalism in this country. What right does the government even have to regulate what people consume in the privacy of their own homes, as long as they are not harming others or infringing upon the rights of others. If we had a liberal government, there would be no war on drugs, just a war on violence.

Can I mention Oppressor with out blaming him?

I just stated that most 20 somethings who voted for him thought they were getting decriminalized pot on a national level. (Low hanging fruit considering Bush did most of the ground work) But what they got instead was a DEA under Obama that was first told to look the other way. Then after many companies sprouted up in communities around the country that acted accordingly to their local and state laws. Obama sent in the goon squad to seize all of their assets once they put all of their skin in the game.

Let me be clear, Rick Scott is a bloody scumbag Republican, we have all known what Republicans are capable of. It was the neo Liberals that were going to get in charge and do things differently. But so far, every thing that I have always despised about the Republicans. The Liberals have managed to one up them on every front and take it to a whole new level.

We wanted change not more of the same with "Style".

Liberal Atty General John Ashcroft really put it to the head shops and growers all over the United States. If only Bush had appointed a small-government federalist to handle things, Hanoi John would not have done the liberal things he did to marijuana growers and sellers.

I would fully support you in calling Obama a hypocrite on drug policy. Hell, I just did that above!

However, there is no connection between a stupid Florida state law -- excuse the redundancy -- and the Obama administration. Now if the article was about Obama's drug policy, your attack would make sense. I don't see the connection between Scott's law and Obama.

I also do see the connection between Scott's law and liberals or between Obama and liberals. As I've said, we liberals have been against Obama and Hilary since the beginning.

Most Democrats aren't liberals. The Democratic Party today includes pretty much everyone who isn't a right-wing conservative (either the Gordon Gekko type or the religious freak).

John Ashcroft, a liberal?

I nearly laughed the blue off my ass when I read that one!

I have no problem with you or anyone else proclaiming their disapproval of Obama. But I do have a problem with posting completely unrelated urls to stories that have basically nothing to do with the Obama administration.

Yeah especially when I post about a foreign country like Florida.

Exactly.
