A Sea Of Red

Washington and Colorado both passed legalized marijuana laws tonight....While I have never done pot, thank goodness for liberty!!!

states saying screw you federal gvt. I can get behind it. plus my wife's parents are retiring there in a year.

It's amazing what gets a particular couple of posters on here excited. Well, I guess not that amazing anymore, but still.

Being socially liberal (but economically conservative), I was pretty happy to see all the social items that passed yesterday. This included. I've never been a drug user and never plan to be, but that doesn't mean I can't support the legalization based on logic.

At least progress is finally being made on some antiquated social agendas that aren't really based on any fact.

Seattle and Denver just became top free agent markets in the major sports.

I'm surprised you don't get how this directly relates to issues you support.

I'm very curious to see what the newly re-elected administration will do with this. Will they side with civil liberties and states rights or will they choose to enforce the power of the federal government?

Ha. Silly question. Conflict is coming.

Gay marriage, for example. "Conservatives" want the marriage amendments to be a states rights issue. While I disagree that it is, if you want it to be a states rights issue then you have to consistent and support it on issues like this as well.

Okay, I can see you on that point. But that's not the point being implied here, that being a constitutional liberty, not a state right. Of course, with RM's post, it could have gone in either direction. I guess a little clarity would help conquer misunderstanding. I shouldn't assume too much, but I do stand by my original point.

all i know is that i'm going to drive my wife bananas whenever we go on vacation. i haven't decided yet on what song i will designate as the "we have entered colorado" song
