Wow, only way that will pass is if all the stoners that were too stoned to get off the couch actually did something. Including me haha. And even then, I don't think I'd bet on it. Still some major progress.

True, but if gay people can't do it (and gay people are VERY enthusiastic) it doesn't bode well for pot people. Although it dominated the topics people posted on Obama's change.gov bullshit. It will be interesting to see what happens.

This is perfect timing for california to introduce this bill... today obamas attorney general just publically said that he wont raid anymore pot shops...but i heard that arnold isnt for this legalization bill... maybe i heard wrong
If arnold is for this bill.. then we are going to legalize it in cali
If arnold is for this bill.. then we are going to legalize it in cali

Want To Know Why Pot Is Still Illegal? Ask Your Governor

Marijuana law reformers, myself included, have spilled volumes of ink commenting on the numerous reasons and vested interests responsible for the continued prohibition of cannabis. But while these lengthy writings may be worthwhile intellectual exercises, I fear that they overlook the obvious.
Thats why, right now, Id like to give you seven specific reasons why the use of cannabis by adults including seriously ill patients remains a crime in America. Ready? Here they are:
Governor Donald Carcieri (R-Rhode Island)
Governor James Douglas (R-Vermont)
Governor Linda Lingle (R-Hawaii)
Governor John Lynch (D-New Hampshire)
Governor Tim Pawlenty (R-Minnesota)
Governor Jodi Rell (R-Connecticut)
Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger (R-California)
Each of these Governors have single-handedly opted to kill marijuana law reform legislation in their states either by the stroke of a pen (Carcieri, Lingle, Rell, Schwarzenegger) or by applying enough legislative pressure to abruptly halt pro-pot proposals from ever reaching their desk. (In fairness to Gov. Douglas, he has allowed both medical marijuana and hemp law reform bills to become law without his signature.) Governors Carcieri and Schwarzenegger are multiple offenders having combined to veto half a dozen marijuana-law reform bills in recent years.
