well, it only took Trump 21 months to get this done so, at least we all know this isn't a priority for him, or for the GOP

did it just become a problem in the last 2 years???

i don't think so.

instead of bashing everything and looking stupid, how about getting behind some things that are being done you actually agree with despite having to snark-out first?

We also know that BO didn’t give a rats ass about it then, since he didn’t do shit about it for 8 years. You’re another idiot liberal who doesn’t think before posting, and there are plenty of us here who love stuffing your stupidity down your throat.

Deaths due to heroin-related overdose increased by 286% from 2002 to 2013, and approximately 80% of heroin users admitted to misusing prescription opioids before turning to heroin.

Wow; look. You use some really big, impressive words. Not.

I was talking about Trump saying it was a "priority" and then it took him TWO YEARS to piss, or get off the pot.

I didn't know that Obama was still POTUS. Why are you so hung up on Obama; you & everyone else?

Does Obama still come to you in your dreams, every night?

President Trump signed this immediately, he had to wait for Congress to pass the law that the libs were obstructing.

If they hadn't spent so much time blocking Kav, they could have got to this sooner.

 

[easyt65]

Since Schumer, Pelosi, Feinstein, etc vowed to obstruct EVERYTHING the President tried to do, doesn't that mean they will be trying to stop this before he signs it into law?

Got it, so BO gets a pass for not doing shit about it because, hey he never made it a priority, but damn it why did it take Trump take so long since he made it a priority. So in order for Trump to avoid your criticism on this issue, like Obama, he should have never made it a priority. The liberal brain is a fascinating thing, not really good for anything, but fascinating mone the less.

POTUS Orange butt signs EOs like most folk eat their Wheaties

If Trump was sooooooooooo interested he could have EASILY EOed this into law; period.

We know it wasn't that important to him.

Thanks for playing.

This is like shooting ducks in a barrel, except in Caddo kidwits case the ducks are already dead. Now explain why in 8 years and 1000’s of EO, BO never EOed this into law. Your getting your ass kicked by several people here kiddo, you may want want to just go away.

It’s only getting worse in Pennsylvania, Ohio, and West Virgina. Six kids I played baseball with have died as a result of this epidemic. Time will tell if this does anything to stem the tide, but I sure hope so.

I can certainly agree with this. I was in the casino in Washington PA last summer, and they had a needle depository in the men's rest room for gamblers who are shooting up in the joint.

Did not see that in the old days.

They’ve had those for ages and they were mainly used for insulin needles, but I am sure they’ve disposed of a few drug needles as well.

Good step in theory, but if we want to get serious about the issue why not stop the subsidies to these Pharma companies who are making out like bandits by pushing drugs on people not because they need them but because it helps corporate profits.

Obama was BUSY trying to keep America from going into a FINANCIAL HELL that G. W. Bush left the nation with.
Did Obama say the opioid issue was a, "priority" for him?
Trump said it was a Trump priority.

Try & stay on topic.

The difference this time is that the suckers end up dead, so eventually they will run out of suckers.
