""It will be interesting to see what their Constitutional justification is. A strict reading of the Constitution would not only show that the federales have no authority to rule on marijuana, but that they have no authority over any drugs whether pharmaceutical or recreational. That's one of the powers which "are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people".""

The government feels it no longer needs justify it's laws Constitutionally. They just need to interpret the Constitution to fit the laws the want to create.

Well said.

Reminds me of a quote or two.
"We want the facts to fit the preconceptions. When they don't, it is easier to ignore the facts than to change the preconceptions." - Jassamyn West (must be a supreme court spokesperson)

Though, A quote “I have no data yet. It is a capital mistake to theorize before one has data. Insensibly one begins to twist facts to suit theories, instead of theories to suit facts.” Sherlock Holmes.

Looks like some "Leaders" need to do some reading. A little Arthur Conan Doyle, Mark Twain, Catcher in the Rye, etc.
