President Charm and his apologists like to blame everything – including the inexcusably cruel medical marijuana crackdown – on Republican members of Congress. But as Glenn Greenwald and Jon Walker rightly point out, the executive branch is authorized by the Controlled Substance Act to reclassify marijuana and recognize its legitimate medical use. The approval of Congress is not required. When asked about it at the White House Correspondents Dinner, Attorney General Eric Holder confirmed that Obama could unilaterally rectify the situation – if he were so inclined.

What kind of a person would even think about voting for a politician who chooses to deprive gravely ill people of the treatment they need?

 
 
 
Chris Francescani’s otherwise solid Reuters article about George Zimmerman, with previously undisclosed and illuminating background info, is marred by Francescani’s baseless assertion that Zimmerman “disregarded police advice against pursuing Martin.” Actually, there’s no known evidence that Zimmerman continued to follow Martin after the police dispatcher “suggested” he halt, but the lynch mob has brainwashed a lot of people into perceiving fiction as fact. 

There needs to be probable cause (incriminating evidence) that the shooting was unlawful. The use of deadly force when it’s reasonable to fear great bodily harm or death is a right, not just a defense that can be used in response to charges. That’s why the State of Florida submitted a probable cause affidavit. In other words, it’s unlawful to prosecute someone 
without probable cause. Renowned criminal defense attorneys such as Jeralyn Merritt and Alan Dershowitz have explained (herehere and here) why the affidavit is terribly flawed. If the best refutation of their criticism is that it’s common to prosecute people who’ve shot others, the State has failed to meet its evidentiary burden.

 
 
When the crime is prostitution, and someone is filming it. Then they’re making porn, and having sex for money magically becomes lawful.

I’m in favor of my Secret Service guys getting loved on for a brief time by low-maintenance, professional lovely ladies. For too long men have been made wrong for their libido and there's a
huge underground market that is (sadly) criminal because of our culture's religious BS. It's time for girlfriends and wives to take responsibility for the lack of passion in their relationship so the men don't feel they have to go get it elsewhere. When someone says, "I do," they really have to say it every day if they don't want the relationship to get stale. "I'm not in the mood" used to seem to me like a good enough excuse, but I'm often not in the mood to go hit the gym either, and I go because it works to go.
 
 
 
A few years ago a cop cited me for sunbathing nude, buttocks facing skyward, at a beach in Malibu. Although several nearby women were wearing thong bikinis, none of them were treated as lawbreakers. A protest song called “Free the Tushie” was recorded in response to this outrageous double standard, and I think it could work as the Justice Party theme song. Check it out and cast your vote.

Writing for Forbes, Rick Ungar explains why “it makes nothing but dollars and sense for clever state governments to shift to a single-payer state healthcare system as the key driver for attracting business to their struggling domains.” If that outlook were widely adopted by conservatives, and if liberals were to largely concede it’s not kosher to force Americans to buy commercial health insurance, a political sea change would be upon us. 

 
 
The evidence suggests Al Sharpton, et al. should focus more on White Plains, NY, and less on Sanford, FL...

 
 
Now they tell us George Zimmerman said “cold” rather than a racial epithet. He's prejudiced against the weather!
