Gov. Caters To Vermont's Marijuana Addicts For Votes

Marijuana is America's
most dangerous drug
"A spokeswoman for Vermont Gov. Peter Shumlin says the governor supports and will sign on to an effort to allow doctors to prescribe medical marijuana and pharmacists to fill the prescriptions." Read more...

However, reality dictates that we don't smoke medicine.

In Vermont, if a politician merely hints that they might possibly support anything leaning even slightly in the direction of legalizing pot, they will gain many votes because the state has the highest per capita use of the drug in the nation and pot heads [drug addicts] will vote for anyone based on this issue alone. Read more...

If Peter Shumlin, who barely won the 2010 election, had come out flatly against legalizing marijuana, we would have Governor Dubie now instead of Governor Shumlin. Instead, he came out in support of "decriminalizing" the dangerous drug.

So Vermonters are stuck with an unprincipled, power hungry stooge instead of a governor who stood by his principles and the best interests of Vermonters.

I am in pain constantly and it is only getting worse. I also suffer from extreme insomnia and nausea.

I understand the concerns but I also understand the benefits as well.

People are not getting approved to use medical marijuana at a fast pace. There are no doctors that I can find that will even listen.
