OBAMA WRONG ON PROP. 19

The Obama administration's opposition to Proposition 19 and Attorney
General Eric Holder's pledge to "vigorously enforce" the federal ban
on possessing, growing or selling the drug if voters approve the
ballot measure, run contrary to all their promises.

Candidate Barack Obama supported state's rights, saying he'd leave it
to us to determine whether cannabis would be legal or not.

Quashing Prop. 19 will boost prices and foster a larger illicit market
rife with cartels and mobsters. Legalization is the only way to deter
the warlord mentality that usually accompanies prohibition. We need a
sensible approach - not more law enforcement.
