Governor Schwarzenegger vetoes medical marijuana bill

"Congress has classified marijuana among the most dangerous drugs and does not recognize any legitimate use. " oh so they're doctors and patients now... no legitimate use except for them they get to loot the treasury and put innocent people in jail while simultaneously stealing their property. I hope arnie gets voted out of office this Nov. They can't stop the inevitable.

"would have protected most employees from being fired for testing positive for pot that they used outside the workplace with their doctor's approval."

Why'd he veto that? Even though I don't think weed should be completely legalized (medical use is great), that's a totally legitimate bill that had no reason to be vetoed. That's like firing someone because they discovered legit prescription drugs in their system.

Arnold has admitted to smokin down with Chong (and his was Obviously not for medicinal purposes).

What a hypocrite...

Dick.

"Just a leaf" that he will shun for political reasons,
what a "girly man" scared of a female plant!

Make it even harder for people with Aids & Cancer to find work woo-hoo good for you Arnold.

Portland, Oregon here I come, your cooler than Kali.
This proves it.

What an ass.

If he approved this, then what would happen if an employee consistently was too stoned to do their job?

Business owners would be forced to keep on employees who couldn't do their jobs.

That would be encroaching on their freedom to run their business as they see fit.

smoking outside the workplace should not be a crime...isn't that the time when most people smoke?

He also just vetoed universal health care...again.

What a D-bag....

Can't we just deport Arnold. Let's say we did it for Homeland Security purposes...oh, he's a U.S. citizen now? But I don't feel safe! So, NOW can we deport him?

i'm a pilot, this needs to include me!!

thanks arnold for reminding everyone that you're a hypocrite, er republican.

That sucks, I used to like the govenator, now I want to see someone bitch-slap him

I don't really care one way or another if weed ever gets legalized, I don't have a problem with it one way or another however I find it amazing with all the problems our country faces people pour their heart and souls into this stupid battle for the legalization of weed.

Come on man if smoking weed is really that important just move your butts to a country where it is legal and stop crying about it so damn much. I mean if these stoners dedicated as much time and energy into getting and education and bettering themselves as they do protesting the legalization of weed then this country would be much better off. Like I said I dont care one way or another I dont have a problem with weed or the people who smoke it I am all about freedom but give it a rest already and grow up.

vote yes on prop 5 california

aww poor technical support guy, he just wanted to help you with your computers. It's not like he's smoking and flying an airplane like that one bitch supposedly does. Maybe she got her flying lessons from mary jane and steve fossett oooooohhhhh

weed is always legal until you get caught

Why is everyone giving the Governator such a hard time? Because he smoked weed before? His veto should be of no surprise. Arnold being elected governor in the first place, now that's surprising!

Another hipocrite for sure! When will America get some leaders with brains? These people must live in caves or under rocks! Filling thier prisons with pot heads and spending billions to support them while they did nothing that harms any one. Mother nature is not a drug and is harmless and should be legalized in the entire world.

Ahhh-Nold... [say this with an Austrian accent....]

you Ahr un Ahsss-whole!!!!

he's not as middle-of the road as back when i voted for him.... so sad.... so narrow-minded...

ps, all....

laws against plants are unenforceable, thus a constant struggle. it's a beautiful plant and will still be flourishing long after I am gone.

asshole!

Sounds good to me. Marijuana is highly addictive, and withdrawal symptoms often include several months of intensive physiological treatment.

Granted it works for some people... but not everyone. Perhaps those people who believe the government shouldn't be controlling what people do should become republicans.
