Here here....
...As I often point out - there is no serious conservative anywhere who endorses legal drugs. This is a leftist issue.
Poster of this thread doth project too much...It is the primary tactic of the left to personally attack rather than engage it a factual debate.
BTW...isn't it the primary tenet of conservatives in America that the federal government strictly adhere to the constitution? Where in the constitution is the federal government granted the power to enforce drug prohibition? And, IIRC, William F Buckley, one of the godfathers of modern conservatism, himself advocated for the end of the WOD.

Nobody REALLY cares about the Constitution. We want the Government to do what we want the Government to do. Period. There is no principle. And that, my friend, is how the country became the mess it is today.

Ahhhh..... Buckley.
I wondered when someone would drag his name into the mix. One of the “godfathers of modern conservatism”?
FRiend. You could not be more wrong. Buckley was a Libertarian. I daresay if he were alive, he would support either Gary Johnson, Ron Paul or even Barack Obama over any RINO or conservative.
Thanks for bringing up Bill Buckley. He would make a good poster child for the pro-dope liberals.

Anything that grows the size and scope of the government outside it’s Constitutional mandate isn’t very conservative.
That should include the “war on drugs”.
