      <![CDATA[I guess we should be proud, eLwood, that Benton County approved alcohol, even if it did turn down medical marijuana.  Progress comes slowly in the land of Republican theology, as exemplified by Ronnie Floyd.  I have proudly told every one who would listen for the past couple of weeks that I cast my votes for booze and marijuana.  Probably, the lesser of the two vices was defeated. By all standards, booze is more harmful than MaryJane, and I say that having never smoked in my life--unlike Bill Clinton who smoked but never inhaled.   I have been known to drink a little.

      <![CDATA[Hey! Little ole Barling, Arkansas went wet yesterday!  In 20 or 30 years maybe it won't look like Mayberry of 1960 and Dollar General won't be the biggest store in town. <br>
<br>
And look how close the pot vote went......with just a little more work it will pass in 2014. So I feel inspired to think that damn pendulum is finally swinging back to the left after being stuck all the way to the right for the last 20 or 30 years. Can nude beaches on Lake Hamilton be in our future!

      <![CDATA[>>Take medical marijuana. It was a narrow loss statewide<br>
<br>
Talk about an under-funded group. Advocates won in three large  Counties, Pulaski, Sebastian and Washington County and two smaller counties. If there had been some money to spend to counter Cox's negative, lying campaign it would have passed. <br>
It will pass the next time. <br>
<br>
In Benton County they voted to legalize alcohol and against marijuana as a medicine.

      <![CDATA[I was at Shackelford Xng Wal Mart yesterday. Lady ahead tried to buy a case of beer.  Checker said she couldnt buy it because it was election day.  I butted in and said that had not been the law for about 15 years!  Wal Mart Checker agreed but her esteemed store manager was The Decider and the lady left. Wal Mart turns down a sale! Historic.  Bible thumper control dies hard in Arkansas , even if the law is against them.
