Yeah and masturbation is a disease too...

[Little Ray]

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

[TigerClaws]

How about a disease caused by a moral failing?

Like a smoker with lung cancer or homosexual with AIDS.

[kik5150]

In other words, nothing is anybody’s fault.

[Cementjungle]

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.

[mountainlion]

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

[FlingWingFlyer]

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

[jiggyboy]

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

[steve86]

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

[dfwgator]

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

[pops88]

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

[oldbrowser]

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.

[longtermmemmory]

this is to make drug addiction an insurance claim.

This means more dependents for Obamacare.

[savagesusie]

Yep—Destruction of Responsibility and Ethics.

Replace religion (particularly the superior Christian Ethics) with moral relativism and psychiatry which makes everyone dependent and drugged.

HA HA. This is the Marxist camel which kills God-—to destroy Virtue. It destroys the concepts of Right and Wrong which destroys individualism and responsibility for actions. This destroys all relationships so that government has to care for everyone since the Natural Family connections will no longer exist or care. Nanny State is ruler and controller of all action and they can drug the populace into a drone, happy state where they won’t notice their own slavery.

[JustSayNoToNannies]

I can't decide whether drug criminalization is a disease or a moral failing. (Maybe it's both.)

[trailhkr1]

What about all the good people who became addicted to oxycotin or are we talking about illegal drugs here such as pot or crack?

[pallis]

Obama can’t accept his moral failings. He is diseased.

[John W]

Things like this usually have a purpose. What news might we be about to hear?

[I see my hands]

Don't step in their either/or trap. It's neither.

[crosshairs]

The White House is to morals what east is to west.
