Eric Holder at center of marijuana debate
Attorney General Eric Holder found himself caught Tuesday in a vast congressional divide over how the federal government should respond to moves states have made to legalize marijuana.
During a House Judiciary Committee hearing, Republicans repeatedly bashed Holder for going too far to accommodate the state actions, while a Democrat pounded the attorney general for refusing to call for a study of whether the federal drug classification system exaggerates the dangers posed by cannabis.

You're confused Hal. They are the "states' rights to discriminate against gays and lesbians and allow firearms to be sold to anybody who wants one (or three)" party.
