LONGMONT, Colo. - A Colorado toddler tested positive for THC, the active ingredient in marijuana, after her mother said the girl ate a pot cookie she found in the yard outside their apartment complex.

"The mom says she doesn't use marijuana, and we searched her house and didn't find any," said Cmdr. Jeff Satur, with the Longmont Police Department.

Police said the mother noticed the girl was acting lethargic at the grocery store about a half-hour after she ate the cookie and she took her to Longmont United Hospital.

When doctors ran tests, they found the 33-month-old had THC in her system.

The little girl had to spend the night at the hospital, but is back at home now, Satur said.

Her mother has agreed to be tested and to allow her 8-month old child to be tested for THC as well.

Dr. George Wang, a pediatric ER physician at Children's Hospital, has studied the rate of children being hospitalized after ingesting marijuana in Colorado, and says that in recent years, there has been a dramatic surge.

"They become sleepy, unbalanced, some even have trouble breathing when they come in," said Wang. "A child is not going to know the difference between an edible product without marijuana and an edible product with marijuana."

Even with requirements for child-resistant packaging, doctors and police are concerned this is just the beginning of a dangerous trend.

"I think we're going to see an increase in this and it highlights the hazards of having marijuana out and accessible to children," said Satur.

The reality is much worse, we have been under "Martial Law" since 2009, the first stage always is psychological deployment of fear, this has been the operative essence of the political correct conditioning started when in 2004, Pelosi began to do her sabotage declaring along with the clueless McCain, and others that 'water boarding' was a crime, the war in Iraq and Afghanistan had no reason to be, after all Nancy we only lost 3,000 innocent civilians, but the worst was how the Republicans lost all testicular initiative, and sided with the Goebbels like reporting of the Progressive lies, being reported day in and day out, until they effectively became totally redundant waste.
The fact that Karl Rove has managed to control any source of
political reality, while the Conservatives are assassinated, there was the case of Sarah Palin's public crucifixion by elitist F*****t Rove and his deceitful money launder schemes
Randall S., gives some hope there still exists some Americans who believe there is a Constitution, in reference to the Swedish Moderate Party, from their short life in Germany's Reichstag, they were definitely a part of those who v**ed for the Enabling Act, that in 1933 gave Reich Chancellor Adolf Hitler dictatorial powers, how that turned out, it is not hard to see, the Swedes came to be in 1933 and disappeared by 1939, their job was done, and so was the world until 1945, for the European theater anyway. Suspiciously they reappeared 'when the smoke had cleared' in the early 1960's, if you doubt there is an active Martial Law, examine the conditions when Miriam Carey was executed in D.C.,during the fraudulent government shutdown, according to sources, these storm troopers that k**led were not C*****l P****e, there were enough official vehicles to block her on at least three occasions that I could see, any professional law enforcement learns how to block a vehicle, they had at least six that I could see, yet why when the car seat with the baby was removed, through the door of a two door car, was it necessary to shoot her multiple times, and her baby held for that amount of time? was that another case of finding some evidence like a video? explain the reason why not a voice was raised, after a black woman k**led by the police? where was Al'Sharpton and Jackson's coalitions?
what guarantee is there to prove the "emergency powers" have expired?, well does that sound like the actions of a Constitutional Republic, or more like the ascending tyranny that is here? The repression is close to "critical mass" this also refers to what the most effective k**l shot is. Around this time of year, New Years Eve reminds me how in January 1959, Cubans lost their freedom. This was also the result of someone who studied law, in the U.S.A., the Cuban Constitution was written based on this country's own, to gain the power that he did Fidel Castro, had to study both, making the expert that Hitler was, then take the situation that we face, study is one aspect, but the dictator must have intimate knowledge if he is to o*******w a country, with a Constitution, everything must be done legally and adhering to the Constitution they plan to eliminate, how close is the 'filibuster rule' to the Enabling Act that made it possible for the N**is to eliminate freedom from 1933 to 1945, with the S*********t F*****m still alive in the Muslim Brotherhood's Ideology based on those of the Third Reich, but denied at any cost, this may qualify as an Islamophobe, or r****t given the race Obama passes for, just ask Rove, and Log Cabin Republican and what their Gay agenda does, last I've heard they suggested war with Russia, because Putin was an Islamophobic bore, can 'social media' and their minutia do harm than they have in the same five year period as the Reich Chancellor had? Randall S., has it right, it is deeper than anyone will admit, at least there is a possibility someone will hear this rant, hopefully without politically correct conditioning. Happy New Year, let us hope is not the same Cuba had in 1959.

After delivering an ego-driven speech at Nelson Mandela's memorial service in Johannesburg, South Africa earlier today, President Obama was caught taking selfies in the stands with the British and Dutch prime ministers. Needless to say, it is inappropriate for the leader of the free world to be taking selfies anywhere, but posing for jovial photos at a somber event is simply tasteless.

Senate majority leader Harry Reid is exempting valued members of his staff from the Obamacare law he was instrumental in imposing on the rest of the country. Fox News reports:

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is allowing some staffers to keep their health insurance instead of making them buy it through an ObamaCare exchange, although he was one of the strongest Capitol Hill supporters of the 2010 law.

The Nevada Democrat is exercising his discretion under the president’s signature law to designate which staffers can keep their federal insurance plan and which must now purchase a policy through the District of Columbia’s health-care exchange.

However, he purportedly is the only top congressional leader to exercise that option, which resulted in sharp criticism Wednesday from Texas Republican Sen. Ted Cruz, perhaps the staunchest ObamaCare opponent on the Hill.

“Sen. Reid’s decision to exempt his staff … is the clearest example yet of ObamaCare’s failures and Washington hypocrisy,” he said. “His staff worked to pass it and continue to promote it, now they don’t want to be part of it because it’s a disaster.”

The distinction is between personnel staff, forced onto the exchange, and leadership and committee staff, who are allowed to keep their federal plan.

As I noted here a couple of months ago (in explaining why Obamacare is an unconstitutional violation of the Origination Clause), the “Affordable” Care Act “was introduced in Congress in 2009 by Senate majority leader Harry Reid, who called it the ‘Senate health care bill’ (a description still touted long afterwards on Reid’s website).” I guess if you’re living in an oligarchy it pays to be with the oligarchs.
