Pass That Dutch
So apparently there's some great big medical marijuana hoopajoo in the Supreme Court. While I personally think Ashcroft needs to relax with a bit of the happy weed myself, I think this decision will definitely act as a weathervane for the next few years of the Court (or at least until Rehnquist kicks it). This case comes down, basically, to federalism versus state's rights. Will it be decided as such, or will the beliefs about the size of the government be thrown over for conservative and liberal arguments? We'll have to wait and see.
