The thing about it is that if McCain gets elected it wont matter since I doubt he would sign it either.

My question is if Bush vetoes it, how long do they have to wait until they can propose it again?

Either way if congress approves it will be a huge victory...its insane how 1 man has more power than all of congress combined and he can veto a bill even if congress approves it.

have you ever taken a government class before

Pardon if I'm just really stoned right now but...

I do not believe http://capwiz.com/norml2/issues/aler...280301&type=CO to be a legitimate website. Look up capwiz.org, which is the website that the link takes you to. It is not a marijuana-related website. Look at the link given and compare it to norml.org, they look different. On the left hand side also, where it says "What Can I Do?", which is highlighted, is not on norml.org.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Edit: I did this before sending all my personal information, thankfully.
Edit (again): I was wrong, the "What Can I Do?" is there, but this capwiz.com website has me a bit sketched out. The Norm.Org icon also does not show up in the URL bar on the capwiz.com link.

Agreed

[weedaholic420]

this forum should definitely be sticky-ed in every forum. the more people know about it and push to help, the better the chances of this happening. even if it is vetoed by Bush (if it eventually gets there) it is a major step in marijuana news

Thank you for taking the time to contact my office regarding the important
issues facing our nation today. I always appreciate hearing the opinions of my
constituents.

I have always taken pride and a sense of duty in my role as a representative for
the people of the 3rd District of Texas. Being a firm believer in the
democratic system, I feel there is nothing more important than to know what the
concerns of my constituents are on the issues before Congress. Please rest
assured that I will keep your thoughts in mind should this issue come to the
House floor for a vote.

Again, thank you for contacting me, and please feel free to do so in the future
if I may be of service.



Sincerely,

SAM JOHNSON
Member of Congress

Lets not sit on our asses on this one - lets do all we can to make this pass!!!!!

And if it ends up that Bush does veto it then it just proves all the more that all he cares about is his own agenda - not about what the american people want -
