The Wall Street Journal on Gonzales v. Raich

UPDATE: It would be interesting if the legislatures or Supreme Courts of several of the states which legalized medical marijuana declared that they had not delegated such power to the feds, but I suppose backing that up by defending pot producers/distributors/users from federal agents would constitute an armed rebellion. So, yes, it would be quite interesting.
