Can I say 'horse's ass' here? If he hasn't seen scientific evidence of medical benefit, then he is being intentionally ignorant. He has no business being in public office of any kind.

| Arizona, this is your "leadership": mental pygmy Rep. Bob Robson (R-Chandler) doesn't believe in medical marijuana, so he wants to remove the term from all bills which contain it. |
"We're already tacitly committing this body to recognizing something that doesn't really exist," said Robson, a Republican member of the Arizona House of Representatives hailing from Chandler.
He's urging that the term be struck from all bills that contain the words "medical marijuana."
Why, exactly, does the term need to be summarily removed from the English language, pray tell?
Robson argues that because he personally has never seen any studies that prove marijuana has medical properties (although one feels safe in guessing Rep. Robson's intellectual explorations have been, shall we say, rather limited), the term should never be used. (Granny Storm Crow [PDF], call home.)
Robson -- an insurance salesman by trade -- didn't explain how he acquired his sudden medical expertise.
"Never mind that voters in 2010 added the term to the state's legal lexicon, or that voters did the same thing in 1996 and 1998, only to have the laws bollixed up with legal challenges," drily noted The Arizona Republic's "Political Insider."

i wonder if this "mental midget" thinks if he can get the term "medical" out of the title, that just leaves marijuana and since marijuana is illegal, now prop 205(AZ MMJ prop) is now gutted....politician thinking.
P.S. didnt someone tell this guy going from insurance salesman to politician is a step WAYYYYdown?
That's how they do it. That's how they think. They should all probably be audited by the IRS, to see if they do some other kinds of "creative thinking" outside of the box.
Send this link to Mr Bob medical cannibis cures cancer http://www.cannabisscience.com...

"We're already tacitly committing this body to recognizing something that doesn't really exist," said Robson, a Republican..................You already recognize god, and he doesn't exist. ;)
I think I get what your saying. Medical Marijuana to Medical Cannabis. But I don't think that's where the drug warrior politician was going with it.
Censorship is censorship.
You talk like you want; I'll talk like I want.
And FUCK your censorship.
Don't get so insulted. Personally, I think I see where you were going with that. I think you were sincere in your reply, not sarcastic!
If you find the maturity level here unacceptable, then get your ass to another site. Bye-bye!
Again another legislator that doesn't know a thing about the LAW!!!! The voters have approved this thing called "MEDICAL MARIJUANA" several times. Just because he is vocabulary is limited, and doesn't realize that the term is REAL, it simply amazes me., I think its time we start making them read the Arizona Voter Protection Act Everyday, Before the day starts and after it ends. And also, to make them swear to not Violate the Law, and if they do.. they will take their PUNISHMENT THAT THE VOTERS OF ARIZONA DECIDE WILLINGLY, AND WITHOUT PROTEST!!!!! Just because the Federal Government doesn't want to recognized it. ****Yet the Feds still hand out "MEDICAL MARIJUANA" to the handful of AMERICANS left from the IND Program..***
Again, the Arizona Legislature keeps saying that they need the HANDCUFFS to come off... (The 1998 Voter Protection Act) But they have NOT shown ONE FU*KING shred of respect for the laws that the CITIZENS Of Arizona!!!!!! I've said this many times, it's TIME TO MAKE A TOUGHER, HARSHER VOTER PROTECTION LAW THAT invalidates, prohibits, and puts these people in PRISON for along time, without pardoning, or appeals. Trust me, if the law is changed to where these people could loose everything form tampering with Voter approved legislation, They won't touch anything the Voters approve. The People of Arizona hold the COMPLETE power in Arizona....
Well, they don't have much of it, so it can't be the water out there in AZ...Too much sun, maybe?? I dunno, but they grow 'em dumb out there...
lol Probably not Vape. But I have smoked Fucking Incredible, Alaskin Thunderfuck, Green Crack, Moby Dick and other crappy names of weed.
ya marijauan has no medical value.... there is no medical marijuaja
thats why the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT has a patent #6630507 on the medical properties of canabis
This is censorship and thought control... Totally wrong and unconstitutional. We need to stand up for our constitutional rights.
Careful there JH. People (college students) tried that once awhile back in OHIO. Didn't turn out so good. Peace Bruddah.
His statements fly in the face of all current knowledge of this subject. He's a complete moron and just should simply be ignored.
Dear God, Please bless this holy piece of shit with Squamous Cell Carcinoma all over his pretty ugly face. AMEN
I will be happy to lend him my copy of "What if Cannabis Cured Cancer" I might also suggest he go to You tube and pull up Phoenix Tears. Doesn't he realize that there are many pharmaceutical companies making money on Cannabis. No medical proof, indeed.
Bob Robson can suck it. I personally have gotten off morphine and feel great medicating with marijuana. Being ignorant of the facts and manipulating our laws should not be ignored. The will off the people has been heard and heard but yet our state reps. keep imposing their will.. When will our elected officials start representing us properly?
When you "successfully" vote in a major majority politicians ( and good luck with that) that feel the same way you do. DUH!!!!
This guy is literally down the street from me. Arizona got overrun by the " high and mightily righteous Mormons" a very long time ago, back when polygamy was in a Prohibition of it's own. This guy looks like Mitt Romney's relation from one of his grandpa's sperms that was deposited into one of his many wives. Why couldn't that psycho serial killer in Tucson have paid this asshole politician a visit and ruined his life, instead of that nice lady in Tucson.
Fairhill, I removed a possibly legally actionable statement from your comment, for your own protection.
Steve, can you go to Washington Patient Group worried about medical marijuana bill dated, Feb.8 and moderate/edit a similar stupid comment I made there. Would be greatly appreciated, like you wouldn't believe. Peace Out.
Yeah. But they put that guy in Jail, for a long time. You better go check my posts on a couple other articles, like the Jan Brewer one and others. They got basically the same statement about psycho serial killers. Steve, anytime you can save my ass, I greatly appreciate it. Thanks Bruddha, good to know somebody's watching out for my ass. If you got time, maybe you could explain/describe how it is so about my comment.
Calling for the assassination of any political leader -- or even seeming to do so -- can get you unwelcome attention from the Secret Service and/or the FBI.
Becoming a doctor requires a serious educational commitment. It takes from 11 to 16 years to complete your education, including four years of undergraduate school, four years of medical school, and from three to eight years of residency training in a desired specialty.We have 16 states that have cannabis listed as a medicine that our highly trained doctors can prescribe.
Yet, a donut neck, 4th grade educated, politician, thinks he knows better.
What's wrong with you people? Why do you elect power hungry mental midgets?
I think prescribe is the wrong term, doctors can legally only "recommend" cannabis. God this guy makes me sick, I need a doctor's recommendation, or I'm gonna puke!.
Haha! His only argument, and a supremely weak on at that, is he must be "right" because it's a schedule 1 federally.
Seriously, if the feds announced that hayfever was caused by books, this guy would be just one among literally millions who will start the fires.
