Well, though it is encouraging that Obama has at least said the words, like the others stated, it could have been a lot more favorable. Everyone will get a little more comfortable and then it wouldn't surprise me if we see some major thing happen that MJ is used as the scapegoat and then we will hear..."see told you MJ was BAD".
I agree that the DEA is currently doing whatever they want and I don't think Obama is inclined to do much seeing as he doesn't have to worry about election again. I guess a lot will depend on who goes into the presidency next and how much pressure they receive to end the war on drugs. I think they CAN put a stop to the DEA bullshit but will they?
