I'm going to overlook your rediculous religious bigotry and get straight to the heart of the matter:
1. OF COURSE the federal government is doing everything it can to enforce the laws it enacted and is CHARGED WITH ENFORCING.
2. I think the controlled substances act and just about every extension of both the commerce clause and the compelling government interest principle is way out of whack of with the spirit, the letter, the intent and all common sense as far as constitutionality goes.
3. It is extremely amusing to hear a liberal whine about state's rights. Ironic, amusing, and frankly, concerning. Concerning because I suspect the irony is lost, and the hypocracy is justifiable.
Finally, imho, Oregon's assisted suicide law should stand. The federal government's controlled substance's act should be entirely rejected as unconstitutional.
