Drug legalization is not a "conservative" issue.

They know that.

How would we know that, Roscoe? You haven't given us one reason why supporting the Drug War is the proper conservative stance on the issue. I can think of at least three reasons why the anti-Drug War stance is: it fights against an ever-encroaching federal government, it reenforces the notions of individual sovereignty and individual responsibility, it takes power from the federal government and gives it back to the states . . .

Let's also not forget it would save the American taxpayer billions and billions of dollars.

There's four. Name one reason why supporting the Drug War should be the proper conservative stance.
