Kenny Be's Colorado Celebrity Holiday Greeting Cards

• This cartoon captures the current political awkwardness of marijuana laws! This is a funny cartoon, Kenny Be! Senator Romer is pictured because he's a legislator working on a distribution bill regarding dispensaries. Sen. Romer was roped into the pot posse by circumstance. I hope the final bill will balance addressing concerns and promoting the economy.

• Here are a few of the top changes from [Romer's] proposal. An individual who is permitted to use medical marijuana must have in his or her possession a registry identification card when possessing a usable form of marijuana. (Romer doesnt address the issue that the registry is swamped with patients and cannot return a card for 6-8 weeks after it is submitted. Patients with chronic illness will have to stop using for two months to wait on a piece of paper they�ve already paid for! ) The bill creates a medical marijuana review board that will consider requests by nonveteran patients under 21 years of age who want to be registered medical marijuana patients. For a patient who is under 21 years of age to become a registered medical marijuana patient, a majority of the board must determine that the patient has a debilitating medical condition and could benefit from the use of medical marijuana. (You don�t decide your children�s health status, a legislative board will?) An Optometrist, Chiropractor, or physical therapist in this new legislation in CO would be allowed to caregive with Medical Marijuana for 20% of their patients. (more restrictions, less patient access) <b>A primary caregiver will have to file with the State a patient plan for every patient under their care and record all transactions with them. (So much for the privacy of my medical records!) </b> To obtain a growers license under proposed regulations, you must have the grow in an industrial or agricultural zone, and be under 500 plants. Also under new proposals, you must report to the CO med MJ license authority every week how many plants and what stages they are & harvest. (Dr. Green thumb doing paperwork? Good luck on that one.) <b>Also if you want to grow of own a dispensary under proposed regs, you will have to be fingerprinted and submit background info to the FBI. (The FBI starts with the word FEDERAL. Those guys don�t like marijuana, remember?) </b> It looks like you will not be allowed to be lent money from an institution and put your business up. (So� where are you supposed to get the cash?) Under the proposed regulations in CO Police Officers are forbidden in legislation to own and operate a dispensary, or grow Marijuana. (What about a police officer with a qualifying medical condition? Should it be so THEM vs. US?) You will not be allowed to own more than three dispensaries, under proposed CO regulations. (You can�t be involved in marijuana AND be a success! Not in America!) Dispensaries will only be allowed to be open from 8a-8p Mon thru Saturday. No Sunday. And NO smoking or using on site.

• Oh Kenny Be... You're the Kenniest Be that there ever did be.

• I did see him flying solo over there, but then realized after I posted that the other three names were most likely grouped together because, well, they're standing together. Doh! Though I still think most of the old timers in the community would reject Romer as part of the posse. :) Very clever concept and xmas cards though. I especially like the Vicente caricature, it looks quite a bit like him! Cheers! Courtney

• &#64; Courtney, Yes, Tvert is included in the pot posse! He is over to the right of the Merry(juana) Christmas tree. Happy Holidays, Kenny

• Pot posse = Corry, Vicente, and... Romer? More like Corry, Vicente and Tvert.
