The pills can do almost as much as smoking pot can


Here is the part I have a problem with. Pills can do ALMOST as much. When the pills can do AS much then I can support the pills.

I just think that too many people "find" reasons to "need" pot,when it is approved for medical use. It's ridiculous.

I wish I could try the pills for my pain, Maybe they would help. However, I cannot, and will not smoke the stuff. 1st, it would violate my pain management contract, and 2nd, it's illegal. That's a stopper for me.

I truly and completely understand why you are using it, and I absolutely hope it that it helps you. I would go get some for you, if you needed it and could not go get it yourself. I truly believe that you need it, because I know what you are going through as far as the pain you have.

However, people who make up "symptoms" to take advantage of the medical pot laws make me sick. They really are laughing in the faces of those who truly need relief from pain, or other legitimate medical concerns. I pray that they never have the legitimate need to try and ease a serious, debilitating pain.


Micah 6:8; He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.

John 14:19 Jesus said: Because I live, you also will live.

Just wondering why? If it works as a good pain reliever or medical aid, that's great. But how are people who simply get a prescription, because they want it, hurting anyone?


I've had plenty of experience drinking and smoking pot. I can't smoke pot anymore because of drug test reasons, which is absolutely ridiculous IMO, but it is what it is. To work for my company, doing what i do, I agree to be drug tested randomly and regularly. And that's fine.

But I don't see any difference between someone coming home from work and drinking a beer, and coming home from work and smoking a joint. And why shouldn't someone be able to do that? If you enjoy pot and you don't enjoy alcohol, why shouldn't you make up a symptom and go to the correct doctor and get yourself your stress reliever?

And why should our government tell us what we can and can't do in our own home, our property, or in a private establishment, the way one would in a bar? Especially a government that's influenced greatly by lobbyists, unions, etc. through money. My wife and I have good jobs, we pay federal income tax, we pay state income tax, we are productive people. Who are they to tell us what we can and can't do in our own home, when we're not hurting anyone?

If you can't do the time, don't do the crime.

Fighting for legalization of weed is one thing, choosing to break America's laws because you don't agree with the law is criminal.

How about Sessions lying to Congress during his confirmation hearings?

Ooops forgot, he has the (R) after his name. Free pass.

Actually sessions has already admitted it. He's just trying to make excuses for it now.

Attorney General Jeff Sessions denied meeting with any Russian officials during the course of the presidential election to talk about the Trump campaign, he told NBC News in exclusive remarks early Thursday.

"I have not met with any Russians at any time to discuss any political campaign," he said, "and those remarks are unbelievable to me and are false. And I don't have anything else to say about that."

-So, what proof do you have of that being a lie?

Sessions' spokeswoman confirmed Wednesday night that he had met with the Russian ambassador to the U.S. before the presidential election last year in his capacity as a then-senator.

-Not illegal.

Sessions said he never discussed the campaign in his meetings with the Russian ambassador.

“I have not met with any Russians at any time to discuss any political campaign,” he said. “Those remarks are unbelievable to me and are false. I don’t have anything else to say about that.”

https://www.yahoo.com/news/under-fire-se...-142614493.html

so what he's saying is he met them, but he didn't discuss the campaign with the russians.

which is probably a lie as well.

he's a crook, 40. stop defending this dude.

he lied under oath, as well. so, you know what needs to happen. but of course you brush it off, cause he's one of yours.

it's funny watching a bunch of russian-bought criminal puppets in the administration talk about being tough on crime.

by that logic, maybe they should lock themselves up.

He denied having any contact with the Russian government twice during his confirmation hearing. Once in response to a question from Sen. Al Franken. Once again in writing as a direct question in writing from...

SESSIONS: Senator Franken, I'm not aware of any of those activities. I have been called a surrogate at a time or two in that campaign and I didn't have — did not have communications with the Russians, and I'm unable to comment on it.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-...m=.bfedc2ca6f5c

'Several of the President-elect's nominees or senior advisers have Russian ties. Have you been in contact with anyone connected to any part of the Russian government about the 2016 election, either before or after election day?' Leahy wrote.

Sessions responded with a single written answer: 'No.'

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4273676/Jeff-Sessions-spoke-twice-year-Russians.html

Now besides that, I've seen and heard many people who have been on the Senate Armed Services Committee say they never really had communications with foreign Ambassadors. They stated that was left to the Department of Foreign Affairs.

Would you like those quotes too?

He misled the Senate during his confirmation hearings. He outright lied to Al Franken by saying he did not have contact with any Russians.

Lying under oath= [you fill in the blank]

Final outcome: to be determined.

Nope.

There is no evidence to date of any of this Russian crap and Trumps people.

The Dems and the Leakers in the Intelligence agencies are still conspiring but no evidence of wrongdoing has been found.

Fake News!

"I have not met with any Russians at any time to discuss any political campaign."

He met with plenty of Ambassadors as a US Senator, but not about anything to do with the campaign.

I think you have to look at the frame of the questions. ALL of the questions about Russia were concerning talking to them about Trumps Campaign. So No he did not have any contact with the Russians in the matter. He did not lie. Show Me one spot that he lied about? All the questions about Russia had to do with Trumps Campaign, and all of his answers had to do with that fact. He had contact with Russia while doing his job, but that was not the question. They wanted to know if he had any contact with Russia CONCERNING TRUMP...NO HE DID NOT. End of story.

I didn't have — did not have communications with the Russians,

Yes, he didn't make a blank statement that he'd had no contact with the Russians.

You sound like a kid with his fingers in his ears going, la, la, la, la, la la.

Cutting short the man's quote is something done on here all the time but on the National scene it shows a lack of honor in a desperate attempt to dishonor those in charge.

He said...

Pit: Here is the question Franken asked. No where in that question does Sessions lie about anything.

Here:Asked by Sen. Al Franken, D-Minn., at that hearing what he’d do with evidence that anyone tied to the campaign communicated with Russia last year, Sessions said: “I'm not aware of any of those activities. I have been called a surrogate at a time or two in that campaign and I … did not have communications with the Russians, and I'm unable to comment on it.”

The Post noted that Sessions also responded, “No,” in a written answer when asked whether he’d been in contact with any part of the Russian government regarding the election.

The highlited parts of that question pretty much answers it. He was commenting on The Russians about Trumps election campaign. Cause thats what they wanted to know. Again show me where he was lying?

I also find it odd that right after session gets busted, reports now come in that Trump is considering direct military action against North Korea.

What the hell is going on in the oval right now?

He just got caught lying.

No matter how many times you yell fake news, it doesn't make this any less true. Dude got caught, straight up. Even republican leadership, ya know, people stesight from the source, are starting to call for his head.

What makes this worse is that you, bleed, and some others around the nation can't even call a spade a spade. *trump voice* sad, very sad.

You keep spewing Fake News with zero evidence. What else can anyone call the lying you are doing but Fake News.

You guys just have to get over the fact the American voters rejected your candidate and your Liberal/Progressive agenda which is now in its death throes.

More lies will not change that.

Stop whining about Hillary geez. She was held accountable by fact she wasn't elected POTUS. Diverting the attention on Hillary is a tactic that doesn't fly anymore.

Sessions lied under oath, period. Sugar coat it, sweep it under the rug, I don't care.

Personally I look at all this Russian meddling in our elections as a huge mess, much like Watergate was in the 70's. Never a dull moment. Top aides resigning. WH shake ups every week. And to think Trump just pulled off the nearly impossible by actually carrying a speech the other night. Oh well that's all but forgotten already.
