County GOP group approves pro-marijuana resolution
TWIN FALLS, Idaho (AP) - The Blaine County Republican Central Committee has passed a resolution supporting the legalization of marijuana in Idaho.
The committee approved the resolution 6-2 earlier this week.
Committee member Mike Connor told the Times-News the resolution is not an endorsement for doing drugs, but an acknowledgement that the War on Drugs is costly and producing few results.
It's a rare stance for any committee affiliated with Idaho's dominant political party, and Connor admits the resolution is not likely to gain much political momentum.
Idaho Republican Party Executive Director Joshua Whitworth says county central committees pass resolutions frequently, but this is the first one he's seen take a stance to legalize marijuana.
Last year, former Republican Rep. Tom Trail of Moscow failed to get a bill approved to legalize medical marijuana.

Any liquor store that stops selling alcohol gets an automatic license to sell marijuana.
i hope so and soon!  i believe it should not be anymore illegal than whiskey or tobbacco ! it's certainly proving to be safer than both and in this day on the www. it getting harder and harder to continue to hide behind the prohibitionist lie's to keep it suppressed! ppl are waking up to how wrong it is to continue to deny all the things cannabis use to mean  and do for this country,not to mention all it still can!i hope and pray that most of the fools who still refuse to open their eyes to the truth and look at how they are going to look when(stupid and clueless)it is.and just by who and what authority do you or anybody else have in telling me what or how i can do to or with my own body? i don't remember telling or signing anything  to that effect!
Oh< Oh ! better keep a close on your  properties tax Assessments and the balance between your currant tax revenue and people employment liabilities.
