Rand Paul Hits Jeb Bush For 'Hypocrisy' On Prep School Pot Use

TPM reports:

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) on Friday seized on a Boston Globe report about Jeb Bush's prep school days to criticize the former Florida governor's "hypocrisy" on marijuana policy.

"You would think he’d have a little more understanding then," Paul told The Hill of Bush's reported marijuana use as a student at the elite Phillips Academy in Andover, Mass.

“I think that’s the real hypocrisy, is that people on our side, which include a lot of people who made mistakes growing up, admit their mistakes but now still want to put people in jail for that,” he added. “Had he been caught at Andover, he’d have never been governor, he’d probably never have a chance to run for the presidency."

Hopefully, the government war on drugs will come to an end.
