"Addictions are a disease...
We don’t put alcoholics in prison. I’m just against the War on Drugs the way its happening. There’s other ways you can handle it.
If you treat it like a crime, and you throw these kids, like we have for decades, in prison because they smoked a little bit of marijuana, and they come out violent criminals, that “War on Drugs” has failed.
I’m against the Federal “War on Drugs”, I’m not pro-drug...

CLARIFICATION:
I AM TOTALLY UPSET AND PISSED OFF AT OBAMA, BUT, NONETHELESS, I WILL NEVER VOTE FOR ANY REPUBLICAN….EVER.
When push comes to shove, I always end up voting “the lesser of two evils”, so, sadly, I will probably be forced to vote for Obama, because bad as he is, he is still WAY better than any GOP Dick that they might put up there against him.
I am very conflicted about Third...

He seems to be the only GOP candidate that doesn't have his head up his ass, which explains why he doesn't...
lizardsmcguire-deactivated20120 asked: He doesn't want to repeal Roe v. Wade, he is pro-life yes but he believe that abortion is a states right. Under him Roe v. Wade would not be repealed. Please, get your facts straight if you're going to rant about someone else's policies.

This was meant to be the generation that never thought of anything bigger than our Facebook profiles and our TV screens. This was meant to be the generation where the only thing that Saturday night meant was X factor. I think now that claim is quite ridiculous. I think now that claim is quite preposterous.

OMG! I just saw a commercial for the CATHOLIC...
No, seriously…it had droopy music in the background…and a deep voice, calmly encouraging the sheep to return to the flock…FAIL!!
So, next time you plop some money down in the Collection Plate, know that it will be put to good use, being spent on ad buys to air embarrassing commercials which encourage errant sinners to return to the church.
Am I the only one who finds this...

She encouraged me to give my money to the Democratic Party, saying:
“Want to know why it’s so critical that we keep the Senate in Democratic hands in 2012? Just look at the ridiculous antics by House Republicans over tax cuts.
