CA: Get Ready!
It's on, like Donkey Kong.

In November, it's on. If you live in California and are old enough to vote, you need to be ready. No excuses. They tried to work the system and were rebuffed. Now is the time for the people to speak.
Politicians don't care about us. Some make efforts on our behalf, and they mean well, but they simply don't have the power to effect real change. Those that do have power are used to covering their butts and not making waves; that's how they got their power in the first place.
So as it's always been in this great country, it's our turn. The ballot box is where we hold the power.
"Proponents of the "Regulate, Control and Tax Cannabis Act of 2010" said Thursday that they had submitted to the state nearly 700,000 petition signatures — more than enough, if valid, to qualify the measure for the November ballot.
Secretary of State Debra Bowen has until June 24 to certify the measure, which needs 433,000 valid voter signatures to qualify."
If you're 18 or older and eligible to vote in California, you need to make sure you are registered. With a victory of this magnitude in CA, we have a beach head for the legalization movement. A state we can point to and say, "Hey, they did it and they're just fine."
Our opponents are armed with a ton of money and will stop at nothing to halt the "threat" of marijuana. But they don't have a leg to stand on. Our time is now.
