NO CHANGE WITH OBAMA

U.S. Atty. Gen. Eric Holder announced that even if the people of
California pass Proposition 19 to legalize pot, he will still
prosecute. Yet, the feds refuse to do a real study on pot.

President Obama appealed the federal judge's order on don't ask, don't
tell, even though he ran on a platform to rid us of this
unconstitutional law, and still promises to change it.

Change. What change? These are just two of same-old, same-old we have
had to suffer under with president after president and Congress after
Congress.

President Nixon declared the War on Drugs in 1969. That is over 30
years, and we aren't winning, are we?

While compromise is the key to good politics, does President Obama
think if he continues not doing right, Republicans will start
supporting him? Go ask Rush.

I'm still supporting Proposition 19. It is time for citizens to take
power back from lip-service politicians.
