I see that as the case with most politicians anyway. But what I find unfortunate is that other than here on Minnesota Independent, this flip flopping isn't being covered in the media. And no one is reporting on this big one that I gave to the star-tribune - his flip flop on a major issue - medical marijuana. Amuseinc – that’s probably right.

He's never met a principle worth keeping if it stood in the way of his next paycheck or donor. Ummm Mike old boy, the only principle that Tim Pawlenty stands for is getting elected.

In an interview I did with the Star-Tribune last week, I also noted that Pawlenty is quite inconsistent on this 10th Amendment stance. Most notably, here at the Tenth Amendment Center, we take issue with the fact that the Gov vetoed medical marijuana legislation in MN just recently...leaving both enforcement and cost of keeping this plant illegal in the state to the federal government. In short, he's violating the 10th simply by keeping the status quo and requiring people in other states to pay for enforcement of this unconstitutional "war on marijuana" 13 other states have nullified some federal drug laws by enacting medical marijuana legislation. Why doesn't Pawlenty stand up for principle on THIS issue? Glad you pointed this out!

13 other states have nullified some federal drug laws by enacting medical marijuana legislation. Why doesn’t Pawlenty stand up for principle on THIS issue?
