Perhaps this will cure gridlock in Washington

Post by Scooter »

At least everyone will be smiling a lot more:
City officials in Washington, DC, expect access to medical marijuana will be implemented by May 2012, The Washington Post reports. The city passed a law in July 2010 to legalize growing and selling prescription marijuana through dispensaries and cultivation centers, but bureaucratic hesitance has caused delays.

You say it like gridlock is a bad thing. I pray for it.



Either way, ain't gonna happen in an election year.

Gridlock describes an incompetent government and predicts social collapse. It is like the bridge of a ship where no one will change course or speed. A catastrophe is inevitable. (just like the Republican economic catastrophe we are suffering today)

In a democracy, it is because the voters overall are incompetent.

I supplied pot to my mother when she was going through chemo way back in the late 1990's.I would have gladly gone to jail had I been caught, in order to provide the relief it gave her.
