DO SOME RESEARCH

In reading a Jan. 23 news story on medical marijuana, I found it 
interesting that Cathie Adams, director of the conservative Eagle Forum, 
who was quoted in the story, seemed not to have done her homework. If she 
had taken the time to do real research instead of relying on political 
statements by others, she would have found that Bayer Pharmaceuticals is 
producing a medical marijuana spray for distribution in Europe. There's no 
way that European governments would consider allowing this to happen if 
what Adams said were true!

Relying on politics instead of science to make such statements is very 
foolish and does a disservice to people who really need marijuana to live a 
somewhat normal existence.
