When I asked if he would consider sparking up without it being legalized, I'd swear there was a brief smile before the senator said he was "certainly not about to say I would violate the law. Several years ago, early in his battle with cancer, Specter told me that he had considered introducing legislation supporting medical marijuana so I followed up yesterday as the Pennsylvania powerhouse addressed the Daily News Editorial Board on local, national and international affairs.
Specter's been bumping elbows with many more people lately. It's his new greeting as he can't shake hands for fear of germs while fighting cancer, of which he has completed eight of 12 rounds of chemotherapy.
Me too, Arlen. Me too. Say...Friday at your place? I'll bring the doritos.
all weed should be legal. tax it and it'll be just like butts or alcohol. nobody kills people while high on pot.
Yeah Arlen!!

There is already an organization that is gathering storm to legalize medical Cannabis in PA. See http://www.pa4mmj.org also Phillynorml.org for general local Cannabis reform efforts. Support the local groups. We will be sending letters to Specter and other representatives regarding the topic.
Dude, there is no way that pot will ever have any negative effect on anything that....ahhhhh, I'm sorry, I lost my train of thought, what was I saying?
vhhn keeping the lie alive. If you're so concerned about marijuana leading to other drug use, I'm sure you are for making alcohol illegal. No drug impairs one's judgement than alcohol.
