Meet Michelle Malkin The Liberal Cannabis supporter

http://michellemalkin.com/?p=154804

The woman that called unemployment government cheese and wrote a book wanting to put Muslims in concentration camps is now fully endorsing medical marijuana. Maybe she will want the working poor to have health insurance next?!

in some way.
So she is either a toker or owns a marijuana farm or an import company or has stock in some company that is looking to make a killing with legalized hemp.

But we are talking about Michelle Malkin. She's a soulless person with no compassion for anyone.

I have never known a Republican that didn't have personal enrichment as their main object in recent years.
The idealistic Republicans are long gone.

Our new friend thinks they want the same things we do.

No, we do not want slave wages, bans on labor organizing, lack of access to health care for the poor, a loss of our reproductive freedoms, a cut in food stamps ( 45% of beneficiaries being children seems to indicate Republicans may, in fact, hate children ) perverse military spending and corporate tax subsidies that take money away from our children, and we don't want a nation that has the highest incarceration rate in the world while spending less on schools than on fancy new for-profit prisons.

If Republicans don't hate children, they're doing a piss poor job of showing it, especially those in Georgia and Tennessee denying Charlotte's Web research to severely ill children. I wouldn't call that a broad brush smear but REALITY

If Malkin wants any real respect, she has a lot more work to do than supporting mmj.

Plenty of "good ole boys" smoke cannabis.

In fact cannabis is used by people from all walks of life. Most people keep it in the closet because they don't want their lives destroyed by law enforcement and zero tolerance policies in schools, businesses, etc.
