Obama and Eric Holder Are Still Lying About the Medical Marijuana Raids
On Thursday, Eric Holder lied to Congress about DOJ's escalating attacks against medical marijuana:
Mr. Holder said federal officials are not going after those who are staying within the confines of their states' medical marijuana laws, but said some have "come up with ways in which they are taking advantage of these state laws."
"We limit our enforcement efforts to those individuals, organizations that are acting out of conformity with state law," Mr. Holder told a House Judiciary Committee oversight hearing. [Washington Times]
