It is amusing that the conservatives on the SCOTUS sided with the marijuana users whilst the liberals predictably sided with more federalist intervention.
What's not amusing is how many conservative Freepers are siding with the liberal SCOTUS in this case.

The conservative members of the court, with the exception of Scalia, sided with the rights of states. The liberal members of the court all sided with expanding Federal power under the 'interstate commerce' clause. That's pretty much as predictable as it gets, with the exception of Scalia.
SCOTUS doesn't play checkers, it plays chess - try to keep up.
