I saw this in a movie once I think it’s called… Catch 22 ?…mmmm…It is funny as a movie but the problem is that it is also reality and people choose to turn a blind eye to any situation that gets worded in this way..just watch the movie again for a refresher course as needed. Reality is out the window as an option due to wording and to me it’s too funny….unfortunately this also shames us and we don’t care and refer back to catch 22 type wording. When will grow up as a nation I don’t know…

Coincidence?

Oh yes, there’s no question that the ONDCP, FDA, NIDA and DEA are in bed with each other!

And speaking of the DEA, doesn’t it seem odd that the primary agency enforcing the prohibition is also the very agency you must petition in order to get marijuana rescheduled out of Schedule I?

The DEA not only enforces the prohibition, they also decide whether it exists at all! This is a clear conflict of interest. We have no way to know whether they’re working to protect society or their jobs.

It’s almost as beautiful as saying marijuana hasn’t passed the FDA’s testing, so it can’t be safe, while NIDA doesn’t let anyone grow it so it could be tested by the FDA.

1. “Marijuana is dangerous and must remain illegal!”
2. “Why?”
3. “The science isn’t there!”
4. “OK, let us do the science!”
5. “We can’t do that.”
6. “Why not?”
7. Go to Line 1

It’s beautiful isn’t it?!! ..the ONDCP is required by law to forever oppose legalization, and when they do our legislators say “look, the ONDCP opposes legalization so it must be a bad thing”, so they continue to vote against it.

And maybe even worse, they all say that “if the people wanted the law changed it’d be changed”, which is completely nonsense. This law has NOTHING to do with what the people want.

I think Rob’s point is.. at that point any creditability that was left to the office would evaporate….like forever…..

That’s a good question. I think he’d couch answers in CYA-speak, like “It is the official position of the ONDCP that…” because then it would be true, no matter what lie he told.
