I love Bennett. He may be wrong on his pot position, but he is one of the TRUE fighters for conservatism out there.

This is fascinating. I would have loved to think my president didn't consider me a criminal worthy of imprisonment back in my youth, when he was my hero, but I still liked (translation: knew people who might sell me) the "evil weed". For the record, I think it's reasonable to keep pot illegal, but ridiculous to throw casual users in jail for using it. We don't throw people who drink in jail (as has been noted 15 Billion times). So perhaps the criminal penalties should be reserved for the large-scale traffickers, who are usually violent, armed gangsters. And if THAT works, no need to throw the casual user in jail.
