You post what is essentially the same argument in every marijuana thread.

Yeah, because it's a good argument, and a true one.

Please find one enumerated power in the Constitution that supports your views ....

Oh, is that your complaint? Okay, let's say arguendo that there was no federal law, but all 57 States had strong laws against the evil weed and all its psychotropic cohort. You'd still bitch, wouldn't you? Because you wanna smoke dope, and by God it's your right to smoke dope, and nobody's gonna tell you different! Who the hell is North Dakota/Illinois/Ohio to tell me I can't ingest/smoke/inject the sacred mushroom, the virtuous hemp-seed, the noble Afghan black, the mighty horse?

Get over yourself. You're just the online equivalent of a crack ho.

So where do you find it in the Constitution for the feds to regulate intrastate marijuana policies?

No it’s not a good argument. It’s pathetic. The favorite tactic of the left is to resort to personal attcks when holding an opinion that cannot be supported by rational thought or facts.

You would fit in well over at DUmmyland.

And no, I don’t smoke marijuana and still find the WOD to be a monumental waste of resources, unconstitutional and an infringment upon personal liberty.

I will be sure to never post anything to you again. I respectfully ask that you do the same.

The first point is that the Constitution delegates no authority that I know of to the federal government to fight drugs. Therefore, it is a states' issue (10th Amendment).

The second point is that even at the state level, the war on drugs is futile (and unjust), does more harm than good, and should be abandoned or not taken up, IMO.
