It maybe that the lefties on the court see future challenges to the federal drug laws. They must gain favor before hand. There have been several 'pot' distributors that have been busted by federal agencies lately (Spokane, Wa)...

Then how do you explain the solid block of lefties siding with fedgov in Gonzales v Raich? The problem is the Wickard Commerce Clause and this SCOTUS will not touch it, IMO.

Liberals have no principles... period! I don't deal with absolutes. Liberals fighting liberals about the application of the 10th amendment when it concerns their prize water bong, is gloves off indeed, but holds little value to me. However, it can be said, that it does further my goal of neutering fedzilla.

Although I don't care what the people of California smoke, I do support my State having control of it's own border and it's own law.
