5. I would love

to be able to legally buy the kind herb in my lifetime! I use medical cannabis for a few health issues that are helped so much more than by any chemical RX. I know - I've used them and still have lingering side affects, after 7 years of being off them.

Three cheers Rep. Polis!!

6. Jared Polis

Polis is my Rep too and he's doing a good job with our new marijuana regs and most every Dem policy. With one exception: he hasn't backed any gun legislation including Obama's and DeGette's. I told him we were waiting for him to support gun control; he hasn't replied yet.

7. I noticed that, too.

Frankly, I didn't support Polis when he ran against Joan FitzGerald in 2008, and I still think he's too concerned about business interests over those of social programs. But I'll give him his due. He's done a few things right, and leading the pot legalization charge is one of them. I don't think it's a risky position for him given who he represents (lefties like myself), but at least he's making some noise about it.

I, too, wish he would make some noise about the gun issue. I think of all the Colorado reps he's one who probably wouldn't pay much of a political price for coming out strong for gun control.

Do you know if Udall and Bennett have said anything on gun control?
