I figure the pro-pot movement that we find among the advocates here to mostly be from the libertarian cult and the rest I figure to be old hippies or kids that grew up on a commune.

In a time when most people are into health, it is odd that some still want to be self medicated, and when some try to bring the Constitution in to justify their problems, all I can do is laugh at them with the rest of conservatives.

Here is the archetype of the New Totalitarian American - a new creature similar in most respects to New Soviet Man.

Among this Koolaid-guzzling 'Progressive American' camp, the Father/Mother Government is all-knowing, all-wise, and all-powerful.

Pitiful, really.

Whoa...you are sure are making sweeping assumptions about people that you don't even know. I could just as easily say that your opinion may have been slanted by your mother's bias due to her experiences working with the drug culture, which she instilled in you. It happens...my grandmother was afraid of horses because one trampled one of her daughters to death. I grew up with that fear as well, because she instilled that fear in me while I was growing up. You would make a more convincing argument if you would stick to facts rather than trying to dismiss smokers as slackers and criminals. In my experience, they are neither, not even close.

If you call yourself a conservative and laugh at those who base the role of government on the Constitution, you are as ill-informed about conservatism as you are about marijuana. You may be a Republican sir, but you are no conservative.

I wonder what Rush would have to say about your brand of conservatism. Me thinks you are another righteous republican that doesn't understand that true conservatism means protecting personal liberty. This means that some people will chose to live in a manner that you might not approve, but their ability to do so allows you to live as you chose.

You would prefer to destroy that liberty, just to ensure that everyone lives by your rules. The RR is just as damaging as the loony left, you just take different paths to fascism and tyranny.
