MEDICAL MARIJUANA WON'T HELP SICK PEOPLE

To the Editor:

Tennessee has such a fine bunch of representatives and lawmakers. We
have them so drunk in session they can hardly walk, so enthusiastic
about stuffing graft in their pockets they need more pocket space,
too ashamed of the American flag to stand up for the Pledge of
Allegiance and now Sherry Jones wants to sell us some weed ("Plan is
to implement safe, effective program," Nov. 30).

Makes me all tingly when I think about it, I suppose this is how it
will work: "Try this kid, it never killed anybody, it's all natural
and it will be legal soon, if Sherry Jones gets her way." So, pot is
the only drug that will help sick people. No legal drugs on earth can
do the trick.

Well, if you buy that one, try this - pot makes you so stupid the
voters in the 59th district will likely vote for old Sherry one more time.
