re: What is Jeff Sessions stance on marijuana?

Pot legalization is with the states right now. Thats where the decisions should be made, period. Thats what i think.

I'm an adult who wouldn't be smoking weed if it was totally legal (for job reasons if nothing else). With that said it is important because it is a bellweather issue to determine whether someone is for or against small government.

Drug criminalization and the WOD are issues that every small government conservative should be against. These are programs that the government could implement relatively easily, thereby reducing spending and increasing personal liberty.

While it ultimately doesn't have a big impact on me, I want politicians that support small government. If you are against this quintessential small government decision then you are unlikely to support other small government policies.

Giving Sessions his pick of positions based on his early support of Trump is the exact opposite of the "drain the swamp" motto. Trump ran on a platform that he would find the best people for the job, not the people who he owes a political favor.

I know people disagree with this view, but I never understood how a person who proudly supported the corrupt establishment for decades at his own gain, will somehow be the person to get rid of the the best things be benefited from.

And since the ardent supporters justified every hypocrisy throughout the election, and the left what into a full on meltdown, which he wanted, there seems to be very few reasonable people left to hold him accountable--yet support him when he does right.

The campaign felt like Hope and Change Part 2, and this only reinforces thst.

We have had an AG and Justice Department that not only ignored violations of the law but likely helped cover up said violations that involve national security and this is what you are concerned about?

exactly. Its like hiring a burglar to install your alarm system. Getting their opinion on it is a must, but they shouldn't be responsible for designing it.

yeah, trump supporters were much like obama supporters.

I was actually a pro-drug libertarian in my college years, then I became an adult.

And as an adult, you surely experienced the negative effects of government overreach and intrusion, which usually make problems worse not better, right?

If so, how could an adult support ignore more government overreach, especially given its ineffectiveness and negative impact, regardless of one's indivdual preferences for the things they are reaching for?

Literally one of the furthest things from my mind when I think of qualifications for attorney general.

So because Obama had a shitty AG, Trump gets to have one too?

So because you disagree with a policy by an appointed official that makes them a shitty choice. In-depth analysis there.
