He was asked about cannabis. He said he would not "turn a blind eye" to it and said they would not prosecute users of MMJ. He also said that the Obama guidelines would be "informative" on choosing what cases to prosecute. But civil forfeiture and prosecution aren't necessarily the same thing.
Leahy is a fan of the Grateful Dead. He has not only attended concerts, but has a collection of the band's tapes in his Senate Offices. Jerry Garcia visited him at his Senate offices, and Leahy gave a tie designed by Garcia to Senator Orrin Hatch (who responded by giving Leahy a Rush Limbaugh tie). Surviving band members Bob Weir and Mickey Hart have participated in fundraisers for Leahy and his Political Action Committee, the Green Mountain Victory Fund. Leahy appeared in a videotaped tribute to the Dead when they received a lifetime achievement award at the 2002 Jammys. His Senate website notes this response to a question from seventh grade students from Vermont's Thetford Academy who asked Leahy which Dead song was his favorite, he replied: "... my favorite is "Black Muddy River" but we always play "Truckin'" on election night at my headquarters.

forget about the fact that sessions helped get a kkk member executed for a 1981 lynching of a black man. and booker felt "blessed & honored" to have worked with sessions last year. has booker assisted in getting the death penalty for a kkk lynching?
I'll wager that Booker can identify a racist better than Hillman can.
So, if Booker says Sessions is unfit for the job in part because he's a fucking racist, I'm going to go with his assessment over Hillman's. Pretty simple.

Doubt there will be any. The law is clear and Sessions said he would enforce federal laws.

Not interested in taking your cannabis, they want your assets and the land on which you grow. Prison Corp will happily provide you with a new hone
