Of course, to Democrats, moral failing are things like Christianity, preparedness, etc.

How about a disease caused by a moral failing?
Like a smoker with lung cancer or homosexual with AIDS.

Let me guess. This will make it easier for crackheads to claim disability for life now, which of course will please them and make them want to vote for Obama.

Misconduct, treason, theft and lying do not concern him either.

Why not? We already know that liberalism is a mental disease. Liberalism and drug addiction normally go hand in hand.

There is a Drug Addict/Dealer living in Senior Housing next to an old lady whose son is a local cop. Whenever he goes to visit his mother the POS calls in a complaint about harassment.

Interesting timing, coming within a few days of NYC announcing that marijuana isn’t all that bad.

I was going to guess that it keeps many people from becoming convicted felons and losing their (Democrat) vote.

Dang. Really? Do they have shots for that or some kinda pill? It’s not fatal or serious or anything like that is it?
A friend of mine wants to know...

Disorder, not disease. Moral failing? Somewhat, but so are all kinds of other everyday things (not to excuse them).

To the Left, the only crimes are being a racist or a homophobe.

Can’t be hatin’ on the “Choom Gang.” That’s racist. Bambam couldn’t help himself- it’s a disease he caught.

treating drug addiction as a disease, not a moral failing, I can just see the trial lawyers racing to file lawsuits against doctors who prescribed addictive medication to patients.

this is to make drug addiction an insurance claim.
This means more dependents for Obamacare.
