Ted Cruz smoked pot as a young man, so he’d better switch over to the Democrats, right?

Hillary is making up for all that pot not smoked as a teenager by drinking everything in sight as an old lady, if reports are to be believed.

So should we just give a pass to someone who committed murder as a young man? What other crimes should we overlook?

By what right is it a crime?

[TigersEye]

If you believe Hitchens.

That could be difficult. But I have no idea what the in thing was or is in Merry Olde England. For all I know pot gives them uncontrollable cravings for fried eel and warm beer. lol

[OneWingedShark]

Hypocrisy is insisting on living right now by one set of rules while you make everyone else live by another—like 0bama.

Or the congress.

[Future Snake Eater]

Well as long as you’re not building ridiculous strawman arguments...

This just in Domino's, Cheetos, and Anheuser-Busch have entered into a strategic alliance, promoting marijuana growth and distribution in Colorado…

[central_va]

The left has such immature pundits.

There's a rule that on every pot thread, an abysmally stupid statement must be made on behalf of the prohibitionist side.

It looked like no one was going to step up, so I did the honors.

[gundog]

I think jellied eel is more popular. A warm Guinness wouldn’t upset me, though.

"What other crimes should we overlook?"

Well, I heard he leaves the cap off the toothpaste.
Clutch the pearls!

[Politicalkiddo]

No. He is disqualified by the fact that he hadn’t had bath house trysts with several men and hasn’t preformed an abortion in the back of an alley.

It's funny how quickly a by what authority? chain of questions causes their head to explode.
(Especially when you hold them to the precedent of the 18th Amendment.)

Egg-zackly.

But what if he truthfully claims that he's performed back-alley abortions on every man that he's had a bathohouse tryst with?

OooKay! I'm kidding around, in truth I'll try almost anything once. I thought mint-Jalapeno jelly sounded like a terrible idea ... until I tried it.

“Idon’t remember much of the 60s so that means......”

Oh crap. The rest of us were counting on you to remember.

[grania]

I don’t understand your response to what I stated. I’m saying that Ted Cruz exceeds our expectations, because he is not being hypocritical about portraying himself.

[SamuraiScot]

Ted Cruz again meets our expectations in a politician.

I’m saying that Ted Cruz exceeds our expectations

Sorry! Cynical me thought you were being cynical about what we expect from politicians—that we expect hypocrisy from them.

I agree with you that Cruz again meets our expectations in a good way.

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

I used a pot to cook in, so what does that make me in the eyes of the left, a pot-user?

If they tax me anymore, I’ll going to be using that pot to piss in, before they take it, in which case, I won’t have a pot to pee in.

The best way to describe the leftists regarding “pot” is that they are all a bunch of drug-using “crock pots”, or “cracked pots” as we say in the real world.

[SierraWasp]

When all the politics of personal destruction is over and all else is said and done... I'm reminded that Christ told the lady that was caught in the act of adultery by the hypocritical Jewish leaders to "Go and sin no more!"

This when they tried to trip Him up by confronting Him with her obvious guilt to get His reaction so they could smear and discredit Him.
