List the power in Art 1 Sec 8 that gives the FedGov the power to wage a War on Drugs.

Here's a hint: It took an Amendment to wage a "War on Alcohol".

If you come back with "commerce clause" I swear to the Gods I will reach through the Internet and slap the stupid off of you.

Calm down Corpse, no need for that.

Simply point out that the Commerce clause has no effect on the present legality of alcohol. Any regulation at all of alcohol (by the states) required constitutional amendment. Namely, the same 21st Amendment that repealed Prohibition.

Idiots that argue the commerce clause have to explain why the 21st Amendment was written in the manner that it was.
