MARIJUANA IS NOT MEDICAL

Regarding the July 6 editorial, "Let states decide about medical marijuana," you have done an
excellent job in ignoring reality!

Follow the money trail of the state initiatives to legalize marijuana as a so-called medicine.
The money trail shows that they have been financed by George Soros and two of his buddies,
all of whom support the legalization of marijuana and other drugs such as heroin and cocaine.
The initiatives are clearly about drug legalization and not medicine. All of the major medical
associations, such as the American Medical Association, have rejected crude marijuana as
medicine.

About the only accurate statement you made is that "cancer sufferers are not the same as
recreational drug users." The reality is that people who are seriously ill with cancer are not
smoking pot to treat their cancer - they are under the care and supervision of legitimate
doctors and are receiving valid medicines to treat their ailments. In fact, one of the first things
that doctors prohibit around cancer patients is smoking of any kind. Those who are
advocates of the illegal use of marijuana and other drugs are using cancer patients as an
excuse to further their own selfish cause.

Rep. Mark Souder should be commended for his courageous attempts to expose the medical
excuse marijuana scam for what it really is - a campaign to legalize drugs and to promote drug
use to our children.
