Pot-heads hated Sen. Morse of Colorado, too. [View all]

Ok, now that the headline got your attention. Here is the article.

http://m.csindy.com/coloradosprings/blogs/Post?basename=marijuana-sen-morse-named-worst-legislator-of-2013&day=09&id=IndyBlog&month=08&year=2013

You may have heard that Colorado Springs Sen. John Morse has been winning friends and influencing people in the gun-toting community. But there are others anxious to tell the former law-enforcement officer how they feel about him — the Marijuana Policy Project, for one.

So, today, the Washington, D.C.-based advocacy group that funded the majority of the Campaign to Regulate Marijuana Like Alcohol issued its list of the Worst Legislators of 2013. Besides Morse, there's only one other Democrat on the list — Florida Rep. Darryl Rouson, who apparently "sponsored a successful bill to ban the sale of pipes and bongs, which he referred to as 'utensils of death.'"
