I think most Americans realized the AG is just a little busy right now.

Busy with what? Meddling with states rights in Oregon. Listening to privledged attorney-client conversations? Fighting medical marijuana? He needs to meet with Planned Parenthood before they use his lack of response as a weapon against him. Whether you approve of PP or not, the AG needs to actively prosecute ANYONE who mails an Anthrax threat. That is his DUTY.

Just as it is his DUTY to enforce Federal Law concerning Federal Regulated Drugs. Is he to just ignore that part? Like Reno did...."I know it is the law, but in Oregon we will ignore it" He can't chose which laws are enforced. State Law does no supersede Federal Law. Grant Vs. Lee decided that.

BTW- Oregon screwed up when they wrote the law. They are the one who "Involved the Government". What was the state going to do if you offed yourself? Put you in jail? They wanted Government help, to make it easy and to make money. It has nothing to do with death with dignity. It was also poorly written with purposeful loopholes. That is what got them into trouble.

Also, Oregon's law still stands, they can use non-federal drugs. Kavorkyan (?spelling?) made a nice living using non-federal drugs.
