The Court usually contradicts itself, though usually not so blatently as in Gonzales. Two recent decisions (Lopez and Morrison) ruled against federal statutes (ie the federal gov't doesn't have the power to legisliate guns around schools and domestic violence). Not exactly pro-state but definitely anti-feds. That is why this decision in particular is contradictory.
While still on the subject of Gonzales and medical marijuana, ONDCP (office of national drug control policy) head John Walters (known as the "drug czar") released this press release. Basically it boils down to "Hey cancer patients: F-you and choke on your vomit, 'cuz you can't smoke no more doobers to stop puking." What a tremendous asshole.
Finally, fashion experts apparently want to tell you how to be a man. I hate France slightly more than I hate the rest of Europe.
