So Bush is the guy that criminalized drugs? Wow, I could have sworn they
were against the law before GW became President.

You didn't know that? Gee...

Actually, what I meant (which should be self evident) is that the
policies of Bush's administration (continue to) create the problem they
purport to solve - that of drug money fueling terrorists. That
particular source of money would dry up in an instant if all illegal
drugs were made legal. (Not that I'm advising this as a solution, but
examining it rather than dismissing it as nut casing is certainly warranted)

Using National Security And The War On Terror as a reason to criminalize
medical marijuana is a product of the Bush administration.

So, if we as a society really want to get rid of drugs we need to pass laws
that hurt the users not the dealers.

Perhaps. But I question whether we, as a society, actually =do= want to
get rid of drugs, and whether we =ought= to want to.

And I'll point out that the politicians do =not= want to get rid of
drugs. That would get rid of the War On Drugs, which would diminsh
their power.
