Insanity In Charge.

Who's the boss?  Who's in charge here in this country?
'
Are we a nation going somewhere good, or are we being killed by our own hands?
Where is the law? Where is justice?  And who really cares?
 
Any body who has been reading this blog for at least a little while knows that I am, am wrong other things, an advocate for medical cannabis patients and their supporters. If this is coming as a shock to anybody, well gee...that's why there' s an adult content warning at the beginning.  NOT because I think medical cannabis is one of those "blue" subjects, but because I understand that some people don't want their kids "exposed."

Although in truth, perhaps if we did "expose" our kids to more of the hypocrisy, they'd be more respectful of us...because we had the courage to stand up and say, "Yep. Our society really screwed up on that one." 

Unfortunately we're so busy trying to walk on water that we kick the stepping stones out from behind us, lest anybody discover the secret to our success.  We do this without thinking, then wonder why the same mistakes keep being made.

In the case of medical cannabis, the good, honest people who are trying to help patients are fined and jailed, while murderers, white collar criminals and international terrorists are left to run around scott free.  This is not justice. But what is one to expect from leaders who choose political correctness over true government.

We are being led by enpty-headed, lemming-types on both sides of the aisle. They are so busy prancing 'round issues that nothing gets done.  It's like setting a dinner table, inviting guests and not bothering to cook the meal.  No reason.  No substance.

But still our leaders claim they're looking out for our welfare. How? By stifling questions, disavowing our past and insisting on legislation without complete constitutional vetting. This is not the America of our founding fathers. Heck, it's not even the America of twenty years ago.

I'm not sure what to think of our nation....lately there's positive movements toward legalizing medical cannabis, while at the same time very negative motions toward denying states' rights in many other, normally considered no-brianer, situations....like state border rights.

The federal government will insist on many things from the states, but will not help keep our borders secure.

We live in a crazy place. 

For today, Fifty Five Is the New Insanity in Charge....meet the new boss, same as the old boss...one more time.
