THE NEED FOR WEED
Drew Carey, pot smoker? "The Price is Right" host
appears in a video produced by libertarians defending the medical use
of marijuana. "The federal government needs to reclassify marijuana.
People who need it should be able to get it, safely and easily," Carey
says. Voters in 12 states have legalized medical marijuana and
California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger said marijuana "is not a drug.
It's a leaf." Studies find marijuana has "therapeutic value" in
relieving pain, controlling nausea and stimulating the appetite. Yet
the DEA continues to raid medical-marijuana dispensaries.
