Supreme Court Unfriendly to Medical Marijuana

Appropos to my post yesterday, it appears as if sanity in the area of drugs is still a ways off. Apparently, the US Supreme Court, so often a friend to right wing state's rights claims, is not so friendly to those claims coming from the Blue states. If you want to discriminate against minorities or disabled people, a state's rights defense will fly. If you want to have autonomy over your body then you are out of luck. The case hasn't been decided yet, but the NY Times seems to believe that the tenor of the debate left little doubt as to where the decision would fall.
