Bensinger, who lives in the Chicago area, said if the federal government doesn't immediately sue the states it'll risk creating “a domino effect” in which other states legalize marijuana too.
The last time I heard talk of a 'domino effect' it was being used as an excuse to kick the snot out of a little place called Vietnam.
So, Colorado and Washington are the new Vietnams, eh? Very reassuring.
The notion of this coming down to a fight is mind-boggling. I've got to give the two states credit for being brave enough to try this. I certainly don't blame the other forty-eight for not going there. After all...

We need to ratchet up our rhetoric on this. It's better to wonder if our protestations did the trick than to fail to protest in advance, and see these two fine states run red with the blood of Americans so Big Pharma can sell more SSRIs.
