85. This is utter nonsense which you keep repeating even after you are informed

May 2013

Holder forced the State of Oregon to give them records of all patients and growers in our program, they did not wish to do so. We have no dispensaries to speak of. Each participant is registered with our State, address of all grows, with the State, total compliance and yet Holder hassles the State to divulge records they did not want to share. All of us here are easily as clean as AIG or Goldman, sweetness.
Obama and Holder make this a high priority in the face of terrorist attacks, which Obama promised he'd not do. He lied. Period.
"Federal agents have forced the Oregon Public Health Division to turn over an untold number of patients’ medical marijuana records, according to court records recently uncovered by the Seattle Post-Intelligencer."

Federal will imposed on the State without any stated reason. Investigating us all for not bowing to King Eric.
