California Voters To Decide On Legalizing Pot

The California Secretary of State’s office has validated that there are enough petitions to qualify for the November ballot the question as to whether marijuana should be legal.

California would become the first state to legalize recreational marijuana if the proposition wins. It is legal to use marijuana for medicinal purposes in California and about a dozen other states, but the drug is illegal under federal law.

…

Militia Leader Calls For Violence

Mike Vanderboegh of Pinson, Alabama, a militia leader, wrote on his blog: “THIS is your time. Break their windows. Break them NOW.”

Vanderboegh is a co-founder of the “Three Percenters,” which took its name from the questionable idea that just three percent of the colonists actually fought for independence. Vanderboegh advocates even more violence against members of Congress than we’ve already seen.

Damage At Congressman’s Brother’s Home After Tea Partier Posted Address

On my radio show Tuesday night, Mike Troxel (pictured) of the Lynchburg, VA Tea Party defended posting what he thought was the home address of Democratic Congressman Tom Perriello.  However, it was the address of Periello’s brother, Bo, that wound up on Troxel’s website.  Opponents of health care reform were asked to drop by and “express their thanks” for Periello’s vote. Troxel’s defense was that the Congressman was unreachable at his office, not responding to phone calls, and refusing to explain his pro-heath care reform vote to his electorate.  Now, the FBI is investigating the severing…

Drake: Your name will be on the imprecatory prayer list tomorrow morning.

Kaiser Health News reminds us of a bit of history:

Titled the “Health Equity and Access Reform Today Act of 1993,” it had 21 co-sponsors, including two Democrats (Sens. Boren and Kerrey). The bill, which was not debated or voted upon, was an alternative to President Bill Clinton’s plan.  It bears similarity to the…
