I am generally libertarian and consider the war on drugs a waste of my tax money.

That said, now that I know Soros is a force behind the legalization movement, I have to reconsider.

Anything he is for is typically hidden evil.

So one schmuck joking on video about how he thinks he's getting away with something holds more weight than the substantial research that supports marijuana use as medical treatment? That's not a very logical analysis.

Come to the cancer ward and spew this dogma. Your words are hollow here.

oh yeah, the High Times guy is speaking for all glaucoma patients...all cancer patients. If it helps those in pain, they should be able to use it. The WOD is a waste of money.

It seems to me that, if you have cancer, "getting high" is a side effect that beats "throwing up" every time.

"medical marijuana" movement, largely funded by billionaire George Soros.

Soros? So does this mean the druggies here that push recreation illegal drugs are going to tell us all Soros is a conservative backer of the Constitution?

IMO Soros wants to manipulate our downfall in America to elevate is stock. Seems the pot freaks are enabling the control freak Soros.

The video footage, posted at the website http://www.sorosmonitor.com, gives the lie to the claim that we often see in the media that smoking marijuana is a legitimate medical treatment for people with diseases. Rosenthal, who was associated with High Times magazine for many years, is shown speaking to dozens of marijuana activists. "With all the talk about medical marijuana, I have to tell you that I also use marijuana medically (laughter)," he says. "I have a latent glaucoma, which has never been diagnosed (more laughter). And the reason why it has never been diagnosed is because I've been treating it (laughter)…But there is a reason why I do use it. And that is because I like to get high. (cheers, applause). Marijuana is fun."

Anybody with half a brain not fried on pot or not deceived leftist propaganda already knows this. It's nice to see these people get caught with their pants down.

And alcoholics laugh about drinking whiskey for 'medicinal reasons'. Opiate addicts laugh about getting their prescriptions of 'pharmaceutical grade' morphine, Dilaudid and Demerol.

Drug prohibition is irrational, it's stupid and it's destructive. There is only one drug that has been so destructive that it has had significantly negative societal effects. That drug is alcohol. If you were logical, you'd start with alocohol prohibition. Oops, can't do that, been there, done that.

Drug prohibition is also a threat to our national security. Terrorists from Afghanistan to North Carolina use drug prohibition to finance their attacks on innocent American civilians. Drug prohibition also creates vast networks of corruption from prison guards, to police, to the FBI, to the CIA, to attorneys, sheriffs and you name it.

It keeps my crippled arse walking, Jack, and has done so for twenty two years.
I'm sure there are expensive invasive medical programs that can do the same but no thanks.

...The video proves that "medical marijuana" is a joke to those on the inside of the pro-pot movement who realize that getting the public and the media to accept the notion that smoking marijuana alleviates health problems is a major step down the road to complete legalization of dope...

It is the notion of 10 States, doctors, and more importantly, patients.

As for a major step down the road to legalization of dope, aren't amphetamines, pain killers, etc, already legalized with a prescription?
