Republican Mom Says Legalization a 'Conservative Issue'

 

CANNABIS CULTURE - A Republican activist and mother of two appeared on FOX News to call for the legalization of marijuana.

Jessica Corry, a former press secretary for a Republican Senator, joins a growing chorus of women speaking out against marijuana prohibition.

"I'm a life-long Republican," she said. "I believe we as a party have failed to uphold our commitment to individual rights and responsibility. If somebody wants to smoke marijuana or if they want to consume too many cheeseburgers, that's their right. And I as a taxpayer don't think I should have to fund a prohibition against that behavior."

Watch the video on YouTube.

Nice to see..

While I am not Republican It is nice to see that there are still some Republicans out there that are willing to still walk the Republican mantra.

Personal freedom, small government and fiscal responsibility.

I would venture a guess that she has no intention of ever lighting up a joint, but she understands the damage that the war on drugs does to not only the ones using drugs but to the general population as well in terms of government intervention and fiscal stupidity.

This is the kind of people that the public needs to see behind the movement. Not your typical hippy pothead, not that it isn't important for them to be behind it, but the majority of the public can look at someone like her and say, WOW maybe she is right and actually listen.

A Republican emancipated the slaves in the U.S. Don't tell me the next President (possibly G.O.P. the way Obama's popularity is going) will get the historical credit for ending marihuana prohibition!? Please say it won't be so!

The Republican party of Lincoln's time is actually the Democratic party of today, fyi. Invalid argument.

Maybe so, but I guarantee that most of the ignorant masses who watched that newscast came away with: "ahh she's just a pothead!"
