on lots of occasions in the last couple of years i've felt as if obama and his administration have gone out of their way to turn their back on progressives (aka: the people who supported him and got him elected).
and now, this:
http://www.latimes.com/news/
that most californians voted for. and the obama administration said previously they weren't going to target
medical marijuana dispensaries.
but now they've:
1-ignored the will of california voters
2-gone back on their word
3-pledged to spend precious resources on prosecuting relatively harmless medical marijuana dispensaries
to quote lawyer greg anton: "Obama's taking resources away from fighting terrorists and going after old ladies with glaucoma,"
the bigger story is that once again obama is almost seemingly going out of his way to irritate progressives.
i try to defend obama, i really do.
but how much can we progressives take?
we elected a progressive democrat and more and more it seems like we've ended up with a conservative republican.
very disappointing.
