No more Drug Czar? Brilliant!

The people at Marijuana Policy Project are doing an excellent job keeping America apprised of what is going on and what we need to do about this. The "war on drugs" and even the concept of a "Drug Czar", against the American people is distasteful beyond understanding.

6th Director of ONDCP, the "Drug Czar" Gil Kerlikowske supports the failed prohibitionist policies which have made marijuana easily available to teens, according to the Marijuana Policy Project.

So many people including police, ex Presidents of the United States and even top leaders from around the world, all say this nonsense has got to stop. 

Today I got this email from the MPP saying:

Imagine there's no Drug Czar. It isn't hard to do ...

For more than 20 years, the federal government has spent lavishly on its own Ministry of Drug Propaganda with virtually nothing to show for it. Our illustrious Drug Czars have crisscrossed the country spreading lies and misinformation while pouring more than a billion taxpayer dollars into an Anti-Drug Media Campaign sinkhole.

But U.S. Reps. Jared Polis (D-CO) and Ron Paul (R-TX) have a great idea: Defund the Drug Czar's office entirely! And they are introducing an amendment to do just that in the next few days.

The Marijuana Policy Project, which for years has taken on the Drug Czar's office directly through formal complaints at the state and federal levels and through lobbying to decrease funding for the Media Campaign, fully supports this amendment and hopes you do too. 

If you want to see the Drug Czar and his gross exaggerations about marijuana tossed out of the executive branch for good, please take a moment to urge your U.S. representative to support the Polis-Paul amendment to the Financial Services Appropriations bill. We have pre-written e-mails all set to go.

Don't even think about this one, simply submit this email. Let's end the war against America by its own government. Do it for us.
