Via Allen St. Pierre at NORML…
Yep, a newly formed Drug Task Force has been established in the House of Representatives to fight back against the Obama administration which “seeks to shut the war on drugs down.”
Wait. What was that again? The Obama administration is shutting down the drug war? In whose fantasy?
Well, I guess, it’s true in this group’s fantasy, led by Rep. John Mica (R-Fla). They are going to see to it that we keep the war going strong. The other members of the task force are Reps. Dan Burton and Mark Souder, R-Ind.; Darrell Issa, R-Calif; Jim Jordan, R-Ohio; Aaron Schock, R-Ill.; and Michael Turner, R-Ohio. Wow, an entire eight out of the 435 Representatives!
