as a cancer patient, even though med mj is legalized for 2 yrs. My Senator Blumenthal (D-CT) wrote me in response to a letter about this, too bad, I can't do anything for you b/c mj is a Sched. 1 drug. And then he added incongruously that mj is a state issue, even though the Sched 1 designation is federal.

The powers-that-be are truly tying themselves in knots to prevent the mj cat from getting out of the bag. Just legalize it already.
