seti: "Rove's reference to indictments was derived straight from Bush's speeches at political fundraisers [...]" - actually I think you'll find it's directly the opposite.

Feds Target Pot Dispensaries in California
posted by coderman at 2005-06-23 17:06

coderman: "Federal drug agents launched a crackdown on medical marijuana providers in California Wednesday, raiding more than 20 dispensaries and charging two people."
coderman: "But Laurence Lichter, an attorney representing Fry and Schafer, questioned the charges against his clients, who according to the indictment grew more than 100 marijuana plants during the two-year period."
^matthew: Reportedly in conjunction with money laundering, for which the pot was a front.
coderman: wait a minute, is the 100 plant limit for concurrent growth or total growth? cause it would really suck to have a crop of dozens replanted every year and somehow land in justice department crosshairs
