Reply #108: Actually, Obama and/or Holder could change our nation's mmj policy w/out Congress

[Fly by night]

The DOJ has the authority to determine where drugs are classified in the Controlled Substances Act. They have delegated that authority to the DEA. IF the Obama administration would take the advice of anyone and/or everyone who has looked at this issue, they could reclassify cannabis on Monday morning to a more appropriate schedule (I nominate Schedule 4.)

Once cannabis is removed from Schedule 1, the game is up. We all know it.

So don't give Obama and/or Holder any leeway on this one. They (and they alone) have the power to substitute science, common sense, compassion AND the will of the overwhelming majority of the people on the ENTIRE GODDAMNED PLANET for the senseless, unsuccessful and unceasing war on "illegal smiles".

The fact that they haven't, and apparently don't intend to, is unacceptable.

To me. And to most of the rest of the sentient beings on this ENTIRE GODDAMNED PLANET.
