The official policy of the Obama Administration is that cannabis holds "No known medical value," putting him strikingly in line with a long line of prohibitionist politicians we all know and most of us likely despise for their http://highcountryexhale.blogspot.com/2010/05/barack-obama-thinks-cannabis-has-no.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (High Country Compassionate Care)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-940151421423435158.post-235318660330600347Sun, 16 May 2010 15:51:00 +00002010-05-16T10:18:15.358-06:00Check out this new ordinance proposal in Boulder--they want to require all cannabis businesses to offset 100% of their electricity with green energy sources, and they want to mandate it with inspectors (read full article here: http://www.coloradodaily.com/ci_15046341?source=most_viewedWhile I understand the concern, this is another ridiculous example of Cannabis businesses being treated to a http://highcountryexhale.blogspot.com/2010/05/think-youre-free-think-again-even.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (High Country Compassionate Care)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-940151421423435158.post-3172405831950231302Fri, 14 May 2010 16:32:00 +00002010-05-14T11:06:38.441-06:00Have you ever noticed that there is one segment of society that habitually tries to manipulate and control the others? Our money-first culture has taught people that control equates to dollars, and so control they must.Whether it be churches, politicians, or buerocrats, there is never a shortage of people looking to use whatever power they have to create wealth.

What, with the passage of HB 1284 and all the mess it will be creating, as well as the extradition order signed by Canadian Conservative politicians that will extradite Marc Emery to the United States to do a 5 year prison for committing what amounts to a misdemeanor by Canadian laws (Canada is now apparently outsourcing justice for it's citizens), it's hardhttp://highcountryexhale.blogspot.com/2010/05/what-does-it-mean-to-be-criminal.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (High Country Compassionate Care)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-940151421423435158.post-3309724664800717325Wed, 12 May 2010 20:57:00 +00002010-05-12T16:26:02.035-06:00The weather has turned rancid here in Colorado, it's snowing in the middle of May, which is very unusual in Denver.

However, as beautiful as the weather is, there is a nasty cloud brewing over the State Legislature this week, as they prepare to vote on HB 1284.

His current tour-de-ridiculous has him adding more 11th hour amendments to HB 1284.
