MEDICAL MARIJUANA
President Bush took the advice of medical professionals on stem cell
research, but when will he and Congress take that same advice on medical
marijuana?
In 1978-1997, 35 states and Washington, D.C. passed legislation recognizing
marijuana's medical value. It seems to me the public and the voters are way
ahead of both the president and Congress on this issue.
Now the question should be, will they take the medical advice of physicians?
