Again, he should not be making those promises if he can't back them up... and for that he definitely deserves blame. He IS the leader of this country and part of that role is taking responsibility for the actions of the government he "leads". It's just the nature of the job, ask W. LOL

It's not as if he led the raid personally...
I'm by no means defending him, he's had numerous severe wrongdoings during his presidency, especially concerning the war on drugs. Am I disappointed? Yes. Would I have preferred Romney? No, because I think Obama would be the lesser of two evils. He's the face of a nation, but he's just some dude and at the end of the day I don't know if I'd have done a much better job. I'm still pretty fuckin irritated at the broken promises, but I should have expected it.

sorry-- i think you place too much blame on the prez. Remember he is the "choom captain"
honestly-- I dont think Barry has much say over what the DEA and the IRS and the FBI are doing...
also, since when does anything a presidental candidate say ACTUALLY HAPPEN?
Umm, all of those LEO organizations fall under the executive branch. "Barry" controls the executive. If he really didn't went MMJ raids to happen they would not happen.

No, I think you miss the point. Whether he is an actor, a puppet, a spokesman, a leader or whatever... he is still the face, the representative, the manager, the head coach of these branches and for that he is to blame for his role (just as every prez is) in the war on drugs!
Just because other people in other branches of the US government are also to blame for this ridiculous war on drugs, does not mean that the prez bares no blame at all.

Not likely, he has sponsors - they own him.
Sure he shares in the collective blame, but his job is literally to be a scapegoat.

And thus has begun the corporate take over of the cannabis business in Colorado. I noticed that this report stated that all these shops were small mom and pop shops. I don't know anything about this that hasn't been reported in the news but I think the larger dispensaries are behind these raids. I don't blame Obama. I blame the corporations. They probably made campaign contributions to the right people and now they can call in a few favors to get rid of a little competition. They are just thinning the herd before this business explodes in a few weeks.

This is truly very sad. I really almost feel like crying. Does anyone know which dispensaries or companies have been effected by this? This is the list I have so far, but I know there are more *VIP Wellness in Denver *Swiss Medical in Boulder * MarQaha in Denver
