The unfortunate part is they have lost that war long ago but somehow think that we, as people, are too stupid to realize it. Our only chance is to wipe the slate and start over with a new government. It is the power of the people that we need right now. I wonder if Georgie gets nervous around him as he remembers the ol Cocaine days?;)

Where, if the DEA fails to "demonstrate Yearly Progress" in controlling drug use, they lose funding. And after 3 years of no progress, they have to fire all agents and leaders. The DEA can then hold bake sales in order to purchase paper, pens, guns, jails, bullets, drug dogs and other items needed to preform their jobs.

This war was bound to fail from the very start. It's no wonder the Drug Czar doesn't have a system to measure progress: It would only serve as a reminder of the failure that this war is. It's really quite sad. We spend billions of dollars per year trying to prevent people from burning a plant and inhaling the smoke, and meanwhile, people die in third world countries because they don't have desperately needed food and supplies- all of which they could have if the United States funded those developing countries. Instead we use this money to arrest and imprison our own citizens. This war's an utter failure.

Even in a so-called progressive publication, this stuff gets censored. Sheesh. I tried to post about Guzman’s cancer review on the HuffPo and it looks like it’s not passing the moderator.
