Another surprise liberal decision from the Supreme Court:

The U.S. Supreme Court let stand on Tuesday a ruling that the government cannot revoke the federal prescription licenses of doctors who recommend medical marijuana to sick patients.

Without any comment, the justices rejected a Bush administration appeal of the ruling that bars the government from punishing and from even investigating a doctor's conduct because of a recommendation that a patient use marijuana.

Huzzah.

Y'know, I wish we could detangle the juxtaposition of medical marijuana, legalization, and hemp. I'd love to support any single one of those issues if only it wouldn't lump me in with the pot heads at Hemp Fest.

I love it when Justices appointed by Republican presidents turn out decisions that make sense as opposed to following the party line. Hurrah.
