I think the irony is less that the Democrats are for making it a state's right and more that the Republicans have forever been for fighting the drug war at a Federal level without ever thinking perhaps the states might be better off making their own laws.

In fact, when was the last time Republicans have argued for state rights? Certainly not when it came to abortion, gay marriage, gun control, school prayer, or teaching intelligent design. And last time I checked they were just as bad at expanding the Federal Gov't and taking away individual/local/states rights as the Democrats, if not worse.
