The Chicago Tribune has yet more proof of senator McCain's complete lack of understanding of medical Marijuana. In his latest blunder, the senator tells off a sickly woman in a wheelchair, telling her there are other options for her pain. Here's a snip:

Even a sickly, soft-spoken woman in a wheelchair gets no pass from him. The other day, at a meeting with voters in New Hampshire, Linda Macia mentioned her use of medical marijuana and politely asked his position on permitting it. Barely were the words out of her mouth before the Arizona senator spun on his heel, stalked away and heaped scorn on the idea.

You may be one of the unique cases in America that only medical marijuana can relieve pain from," he said, in a skeptical tone. "Every medical expert I know of, including the AMA (American Medical Association), says there are much more effective and much more, uh, better treatments for pain. He also ridiculed the notion that police would arrest patients for using marijuana as medicine.

This is how you treat sick people? Yes, Senator, police would and do arrest patients for using marijuana as a medicine. Here's our previous story, showing how much compassion senator McCain has for medical Marijuana patients.
