John McCain On Marijuana: 'Maybe We Should Legalize'

[23536]

Sen. John McCain indicated he may be changing his stance on marijuana legalization during a town hall event in Arizona on Thursday.

Arizona Daily Star columnist Tim Steller tweeted that McCain said "maybe we should legalize" during the Phoenix event:

McCain: "Maybe we should legalize. We're certainly moving that way as far as marijuana is concerned. I respect the will of the people"

McCain isn't the first one in his family to show signs of support for marijuana legalization. His daughter Meghan McCain came out in favor of pot legalization -- and admitted she'd smoked a joint -- in June 2012.

Wait... John McCain said this? The real one? the One with the tumours and everything? Have I just woken up in la-la land or something?

Snowballing, much?

His wife is rumored to have a major prescription drug problem so he may not be as out of touch with drugs as he looks. Its funny that Mcain was once seen as a maverick and a pragmatist. He destroyed his legacy in the 2008 campaign.

Well this is a step in the right direction.

You have to love it when the dominoes seem to start to fall fast.. it about time every one woke up.. most of the world are sheep and once the sheep start to flip it usually happens fast.. (not saying john Mccain is a sheep at all).. if he has tumors maybe he has been getting some of the many health benefits and comforts himself.. hard to accept a lie when the truth is staring you right in the eye's:D

That's true, I had forgotten about the wife...that would either make someone understand it a little bit better or make them take an even harder stance towards it.
