If it is a conservative issue, why is Soros funding it?
If Soros is a socialist, as he says why is he funding it? The most socialist governments you can find will have the strictest drug laws. If it is a liberal issue, why did the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation write the DARE program? They were major players in Hillary's Health Care Task Force, and they ponied up a half million dollars for the airtime to broadcast her Health Care Town Hall Meetings uninterrupted. They're also big proponents of gun control and pioneered the idea that gun ownership is a "health care issue" and want doctors to ask their patients if they own guns, they want that to be part of their medical record, and they want the government to have access to all your medical records. Politics makes strange bedfellows, and Soros is a crackpot to start with.
You have to think for yourself. If you just reflexively do the opposite of what Soros does, then you're letting him think for you, and taking a contrarian position.
"If it is a conservative issue, why is Soros funding it?" Soros spends hundreds of millions of dollars all over the world promoting democracy and capitalism. Does that make democracy and capitalism bad? I don't agree with a lot of the things Soros does either but the fact that Soros spends money on something does not establish the prima facie case that that thing is bad or even liberal as opposed to conservative. Besides, Soros is not the only person funding marijuana legalization initiatives and there were plenty of people out there who thought our marijuana laws were stupid long before Soros ever spent a dime funding any marijuana law reform groups. I've held the belief that marijuana should be legal for more than twenty years and I never even heard of Soros until a couple of years ago. I'm more than a little offended when people try to lump all of those who feel the same way I do about these issues in with George Soros. He's just one of millions and millions out there from various backgrounds with various core beliefs who happen to agree that marijuana should be legal. Just because we agree on that one point does not mean we all agree on everything else.
