President Obama says recreational users of marijuana in states that have legalized the substance should not be a "top priority" of federal law enforcement officials prosecuting the war on drugs.
"We've got bigger fish to fry," Obama said of pot users in Colorado and Washington during an exclusive interview with ABC News' Barbara Walters.
"It would not make sense for us to see a top priority as going after recreational users in states that have determined that it's legal," he said, invoking the same approach taken toward users of medicinal marijuana in 18 states where it's legal.
More of Barbara Walters' exclusive first joint, post-election interview with President Obama and first lady Michelle Obama airs tonight on "20/20" at 10 p.m. ET on ABC stations.

you really need to do your own research.
Why did you dodge my questions? Let's try again
1. Do you equate Sarah's dope smoking with someone who views child porn? YES or NO
2. If we can find that you made supportive comments about Sarah, that must mean you would support a consumer of child porn, right? YES or NO
Ummm, you said dogs sniffing you walking thru an airport after you get off the plane. So no, the idea doesn’t work.
you want off the plane or not? you aren’t going to get to walk through the airport.
LOL. Hows that work? No law was broken.
When it comes to YOUR claims, it's YOU who needs to do your own research - all I need to do is point and laugh when you're too lazy to do so.
LMAO. You really are an idiot aren’t you? Do you speak English? I have to ask because you keep repeating laws about possession and driving under the influence of all kinds of things. That’s really wonderful but being “stonned” is NOT possession and it’s not illegal to walk thru airports “stonned”.
Don't count on it.
The real world is on to all of your tricks.
Lol. Gotta love authoritarian conservatives that believe smoking a little weed makes you an absolute slack jawed moron. I'll put my brains against yours any day. You people share the highly liberal belief that people are too stupid to deal with themselves so you gotta use the fed gov to take care of all us.
BTW, I hate flying and as such, usually fly stoned out of my gourd. Yep, never had an issue. Even in Virginia. I count on it.
In reality the real world is onto you. People like you are what's turned the so-called party of small government into the Whig party.
You are definitely off on a wild tangent there ~ I never supported your boy Romney and you should have never thought you could get away with running a Democrat against a Democrat. That’s just crazy.
Talk about wild tangents. WTF are you talking about? You claimed being stoned is illegal and then posted driving under the influence laws as proof. Then you equate being stoned with possession and then ran off to claim I love Romney. Have a good one nutbag.
Every law I cited referred to ‘behavior’ ~ that’s ‘being stoned’ ~ stoner!
*yawn* not so much. Progressive!
You’re taking a lawless amoral position and you know it ... It would be like saying if people jay walk it’s the same as getting off on children being tortured to death. It’s not. You’re nuts or you’re a liberal.
