For the last two years, the federal government has been saying it will let marijuana dispensaries operate without interference. What do they think they're doing, by pulling a Sarah Palin and reneging on their promises this late in the game? If Obama really wanted to get tough on marijuana, he should have thrown it into the pot of gumbo when he was marching along Washington trying to pass his health care bill.
At this point, it only shows how eager and desperate he is to get some extra votes come Election Day 2012. Getting tough on marijuana in the 16 states its legal in won't win you big points. Making fun of the desperate attempts of the GOP to find a passably appealing candidate actually might be a better tactic than making 600,000 U.S. pot smokers unhappy.
