“Marihuana” is a very dangerous drug and even small amounts can cause hysteria, bed wetting and strokes among members of drug free America cults. If legalized their heads could potentially explode.

Here comes Grubbs Barthwell and Bayer while Ganja and Hemp remain for the outlaws. Hummm sounds familiar…

“Is The DEA Legalizing THC?” 2011/02/10

So, in other words, if a pharmaceutical product contains THC extracted from the marijuana plant, that would be a legal commodity. But if you or I possessed THC extracted from the marijuana plant, that would remain an illegal commodity.

Wait, it gets even more absurd.

Since the cannabis plant itself will remain illegal under federal law, then from whom precisely could Big Pharma legally obtain their soon-to-be legal THC extracts? There’s only one answer: The federal government’s lone legally licensed marijuana cultivator, The University of Mississippi at Oxford, which already has the licensing agreements with the pharmaceutical industry in hand.

AMA Ends 72-Year Policy: Ganja is Medicine 11/10/09
The AMA Medical Industrial Complex has permitted millions of Americans to suffer needless anxiety and physical harm from drug thugs for 40 years. They sat by while their Insurance and Pharmaceutical masters did the bidding for $Trillions in profits. Not once did they ever disclose the thousands of years of safe use. Now they say nothing, not a damn word different. They have no intention of allowing common working US peasants to have something for nothing, not something they can sell. Not Buyers Clubs or Homegrown. They haven't changed the status of smoked pot. Barthwell and Bayer are lurking in the Shadows ready to pounce on a lowering to schedule#2, requiring a triplicate and still outlawing vegetable matter ignitions. They outlaw research but still manage to obtain a patent for cannabinoids? Fool me once shame on you, try fooling me a thousand times and I come to expect it. I hope I'm wrong, but with their track record, I don't think so. ~ DdC

Vested Ignorance will always lie and cheat to maintain their dysfunctional profits. If left to the Politikan ConPromisers, as I suspect. The AMA would lower it to a schedule#2 and permit Big Pharma to control it. Barthy and Bayer and Boosh’s Ely Lilly won’t give up profits to Homegrown. The only solution is to overturn the Controlled Substance Act for the bold face lie it is

Like using Barthwell/Bayers Sativex by lowering buds to a schedule#2 narcotic. Leaving Pot, Hemp and RxGanja prohibited for future profit and keeping cannabis products off the market shelf.

Michele M. Leonhart (Lying Heart) 12/31/10
Lowering to a schedule#2 will only open sublingual sprays like satevex and bayer. Leaving Hemp, RxGanja and Ganja outlawed. Prohibition is a lie agreed upon. Why perpetuate it or ConPromise on truth?

DEA Finally Admits Marijuana is Medicine 2011/mar/01

DEA Finally Admits Marijuana is Medicine?

We Need Firm Grasps of the Obvious... 2011/mar/01

Not hard to be a psychic in the Ganjawar. When Barthwell went to GW to bring Sativex sublingual spray cannabis extract to the states. Another trifecta was in the making. Some of us saw it, outside of the media. Still hasn't really caught on in the status weirdness of the American people concerning cannabis. DEA finally admits? Ha. First cannabis smoking is still falsely demonized. Besides the logic of thousands of years of smoking, around camp fires. No damage has been reported. To the contrary that cannabis actually prevents the harmful effects of camp fires, traffic jams or smoke stacks. Or the falsely demonized tobacco smoke. Again, thousands of years and hundreds of cultures smoking organic tobacco with no incidence of harm. Not until "cigarettes" were invented for your pleasure as Ronald Reagan advertised. Adding hundreds of adulteration chemicals and with them came the disease and cancers. The fertilizers and curing agents are still kept in the dark. Creating another billion dollar black market. Raising prices sending low income smokers to generic brands with more chemicals. Cigarettes are the comparison used for cannabis. Now its more than clear why.

Barthwell goes to Canada. The DEA patents cannabinoids. Has a monopoly on cannabis growing, also rolling and distribution. DEA is mandated to demonize cannabis as medicine and now just the smoke. In time for Barthwell to swoop in with the sublingual spray. (under the tongue). Now it seems as predicted if the US lowers the scheduling of cannabis bud for extracts to a 3 or even sxhedule#2. So making it the same as merdinol would open more markets for milder applications. This would keep in in Big Pharma and Keep prohibition alive and perpetuating as intended. Thirdly it would keep Hemp as a schedule #1 narcotic and 98% (if you can believe souder) of the eradications. Peace-mil work. But in a lesser evil anti-capitalist free market way it would provide a safer Pharmaceutical than the present white powders. It would also keep the factions divided. The Ganjawar only profits if it perpetuates. Not zero tolerance or legalized. Pharma only profits on treatments, not cures or prevention. 40 years ago all I wanted to do was smoke a joint, listen to some tunes and kick back after work. Who'd thunk it was sooo complicated and corrupt? Jobs, homegrown medicine and chemical free, non aborting food, fuel and fiber would bypass Wall St. It's always been a rigged game. Truth to the people was always the leveler.~ DdC

Con Flicts of Interest Bush Barthwell & Bayer

US investors piled into GW Pharmaceuticals yesterday amid excitement over the prospects for an American launch of its revolutionary cannabis-based treatment for multiple sclerosis. Health regulators have sent an uncompromising message that smoked cannabis will not be approved for use by MS sufferers, leaving the way open for GW's under-the-tongue spray version of the drug.

Former Deputy Drug Czar Andrea Barthwell is the new spokesperson for getting GW Pharmaceuticals' Sativex approved for use in the United States

The extent of the federal government’s hypocrisy on the issue of medicinal cannabis truly knows no bounds. Don’t believe me?

One-third of drug safety advisers in U.S. show conflicts of interest
Of the nearly 3,000 panellists appointed based on their drug expertise, 28 per cent disclosed a financial relationship with the company making the drug under review or a competitor, the consumer group reports in Wednesday's issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association.

Andrea Barthwell is a former Deputy Director of the O.N.D.C.P.(Office of National Drug Control Policy), where her job was to oppose medical marijuana, regardless of the facts. The function of the ONDCP as charged by Congress was one of propaganda. In fact, the GAO said as much (pdf) in a reply to Representative Ron Paul who was complaining about incorrect information being disseminated by another Deputy Director:

"... while the Deputy Director's statements pertaining to marijuana may be disputed by some with different viewpoints, they were made within the context of ONDCP's statutory responsibilities, which include taking such actions as necessary to oppose efforts to legalize certain controlled substances such as marijuana. ..."

Given this role, we do not see a need to examine the accuracy of the Deputy Director's individual statements in detail."

Government Bias Prevents Gains in Cannabis Research June 12, 2002
Rosenfeld, who has more than 200 bone tumors from a rare disease, said his doctor makes annual progress reports to federal officials. The marijuana dulls his pain, relaxes muscles and reduces inflammation, he said.

"Each year my doctor filled out elaborate forms," Rosenfeld said. "The first time it took three hours. Three months later he asked, `What does the government think about that report?' I said, `What are you talking about? They buried it.' The next year, he took a red magic marker and put on each page: `It's Working.' We never heard back."

FDA's counsel accused of being too close to drug industry

Andrea Barthwell, caught red-handed
Not only has Andrea Barthwell been touring Illinois misleading people about the facts about medical marijuana, she has also claiming that her Illinois Marijuana Lectures were sponsored by Great Lakes Addiction Technology Transfer Center (GLATTC), an organization that "promotes state-of-the-art addiction science" and is funded through federal taxpayer dollars (through SAMHSA) and partners with such agencies as the Illinois Department of Human Services.

Ddc, the same thing happened with opium. Big Pharma figured out how to isolate certain compounds, put em in pill form, and the beautiful, natural form of the drug remains very illegal. I see the proliferation of MMJ to be a serious setback in the legalization efforts for that reason among others.
