Should conservatives play the flip side of the left's ad hominem game, e.g., "The billionaire Koch brothers oppose climate change legislation, therefore all such opposition is evil"?

Are you saying that anyone who calls Soros’ “marijuana is medicine” crap a scam is a leftwinger?

No, I'm saying that anyone who claims that Soros' support is relevant to the policy debate is using leftwingers' tactics.

For an example of something that is relevant to the policy debate, see post #17:

From the federal National Institute on Drug Abuse (http://www.drugabuse.gov/publications/drugfacts/marijuana-medicine:

Currently, the two main cannabinoids from the marijuana plant that are of medical interest are THC and CBD.

THC increases appetite and reduces nausea. The FDA-approved THC-based medications are used for these purposes. THC may also decrease pain, inflammation (swelling and redness), and muscle control problems.

CBD is a cannabinoid that does not affect the mind or behavior. It may be useful in reducing pain and inflammation, controlling epileptic seizures, and possibly even treating mental illness and addictions.

NIH-funded and other researchers are continuing to explore the possible uses of THC, CBD, and other cannabinoids for medical treatment.

Anyone who pushes marijuana

is either a pothead

or stands to gain monetarily from Soros’ “legalization” scam.
