The Teleomorph

Obama’s drug policy is now ten times more Draconian than Bush’s ever was.  It’s not sudden or anything; last year was the second biggest year in history for Marijuana arrests, despite 16 states now allowing medical use and massive shift in public sentiment regarding the plant.  In a truly remarkable example of Mr. Obama’s “audacity,” the federal government has declared that California medical dispensaries have 45 days to shut down or face criminal charges and property seizure (raids).  Letters of the threat have bee sent to 16 dispensaries but the mandate applies to all dispensaries.  Piling on the attack is the IRS’s new ruling that dispensaries can not deduct standard business expenses such as payroll, security or rent, essentially doubling the amount in taxes owed and making it literally impossible for both small and large dispensaries to stay in business.  Also, The DOJ and ATF have decreed that medical marijuana users have no second amendment rights, forbidding them to purchase or own firearms.  And to top it all off, in a jaw-dropping act of government authority abuse, a new law states that it is a federal offense if a US citizen uses illegal drugs IN ANOTHER COUNTRY, even if the substance used is LEGAL in that country.  So technically, enjoying a joint in Amsterdam, Portugal, India or drinking ayahuasca in South America are now punishable crimes.

And all of this right when Obama has launched his third online petition voting system at Whitehouse.gov, and for the third time cannabis and drug war issues has skyrocketed into distant first place as the most important issue for Americans.  The first two times he ridiculed the topic and the people who voted for it. This time he’s taking a bit more obvious of a response.   Sickening.

From day 1 Obama filled his cabinet with over 35 Goldman Sachs employees (and put the Goldman Sachs Managing Director and NY Federal Reserve president in charge of the Treasury) and other banksters from the Federal Reserve and Wall St., over 7 high-ranking Monsanto employees including the vice-president in charge of the FDA and USDA, and a bunch of other revolving-door corporatists I don’t feel like listing off right now.

Bankster bail-outs, Patriot Act extension, eradication of civil liberties, indefinite detention, totrtue or assassination without charge or trial, genocidal wars abroad that murder children every god damned day.  Seriously, anyone who still supports this pathologically lying, bankster-owned, blood-lusting president needs mental help.  I was willing to forgive how easily everyone bought into the garbage in 2008, but at this point, if you still are an Obama apologist, you fall into a new category of brainwashed, drooling, weak-willed, weak-minded, weak-hearted person, right beside the neo-cons, and will be regarded as either a brain-damaged child or a sadistic globalist.

Obama is personally helping robber baron banks steal the wealth of the working world and personally continuing the massacre of hundreds of thousands of innocents.  Forgive me if I’ve lost some patience with those who support and vote for this.
