Just thought I'd come out and say it: That's right, I support the House bill 5843: Act to Remove Federal Penalties for the Personal Use of Marijuana by Responsible Adults.
Kudos to Barney from MA for introducing this bill. And Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) for co-sponsoring!
It's currently under review by the Subcommittee on Crime, Terrorism, and Homeland Security. I highly doubt it will make it very far, but damnit, it should. I'll be keeping my (red) eye on it. Wiki page here.

Serving God | Apparently, God--being omnipresent, omnipotent, and all-knowing--also has complete and indisputable immunity from the courts. So goes the ruling by Judge Marlan Polk in Omaha, which held that, although God is present everywhere, there's no evidence he was/ever can be served papers. The suit was thrown out, like those sinners Adam & Eve from Eden. Former State Senator (D-NE) Ernie Chambers brought the suit against God to make the point that anyone should have equal access to the courts, a response to the state legistlature's previous attempts to limit frivolous lawsuits. His last suit against God sought a permanent injunction to prevent God from committing acts of violence such as earthquakes and tornadoes. The lawsuits may have failed, but they've tarnished God's already questionable reputation. God did not return any calls for comment.
