Washington Post: “During the 2008 campaign, Barack Obama raised hopes among those who support medical marijuana by pledging to respect state laws on the issue. But his administration has reversed course and massively escalated the federal government’s attacks on medical marijuana businesses, most of which are legal under their states’ laws. This is perplexing because medical marijuana is far more popular than Obama is. A Washington Post-ABC News poll from January 2010 found that 81 percent of Americans supported legalizing medical marijuana. . . . Simply put, Obama has become more hostile to medical marijuana patients than any president in U.S. history.”
In Dreams from His Father the self-admitted former pot head who is now the President of the United States at war with medical marijuana said this about his drug use in his youth:
“I had learned not to care. I blew a few smoke rings, remembering those years. Pot had helped, and booze; maybe a little blow when you could afford it.”
In a 2007 speech to students then Senator Obama :
“You know, I made some bad decisions …. You know, got into drinking and experimenting with drugs. There was a whole stretch of time where I didn’t apply myself.”
Brietbart.com says:
“The Chicago Tribune reported back in 2007 that Obama thanked the ‘Choom Gang’ in his high school yearbook; ‘chooming’ was Hawaiian slang for smoking pot. The Honolulu Advertiser reported that Obama’s senior portrait ‘prominently displayed . . . A package of ‘Zig-Zag’ rolling papers and a matchbook’.”
