Rand Paul rips Jeb Bush as a hypocrite for pot smoking …

Sen. Rand Paul is calling out Jeb Bush for hypocrisy after revelations Bush smoked pot in high school even though Bush opposed legalizing medical marijuana as Governor of Florida.

You would think hed have a little more understanding then, Paul said on Friday, in comments to The Hill after the Boston Globe reported Bush had used the drug in the late 60s during his student days Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts.

He was even opposed to medical marijuana. This is a guy who now admits he smoked marijuana but he wants to put people in jail who do. I think thats 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, hed have never been governor, hed probably never have a chance to run for the presidency.

Rand sounded off on Bush as the Kentucky Republican kicked off his weekend in Texas, scoring a coveted endorsement from the Texas GOP Chair, Steve Munisteri.

Paul, whose father Ron Paul is a retired Congressman from Texas, spoke at the Dallas County GOPs Reagan Day Dinner on Friday, and on Saturday will headline a Tarrant County GOP.

The libertarian leaning Paul supports legalized marijuana and has called punishment for pot possession ridiculous.

He has also suggested that he may have dabbled with drugs in his youth.

Lets just say I wasnt a choir boy when I was in college and that I can recognize that kids make mistakes, he said in a radio interview in December.

Rand Paul tweets fake phone call between Jeb Bush and …

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) seems not so much to be running for President, but King of the Internet or King of Silly Snark instead.

The latest?

He tweeted out a fake phone call between Jeb Bush and Hillary Clinton that hits them on their dynastic roots. Yes, the son of a three-time presidential candidate/Texas Congressman is hitting someone else for coming from a political family.

You see, Paul really doesn't like that the same candidates run again and again and thinks the American public shouldn't either. (Sidenote: Ron Paul ran for president in 1988, 2008 and 2012.)

As for the phone call here's the "transcript" (or listen here):

BUSH: Hey, Hill. Its Jeb.

CLINTON: Hey, Jeb. To what do I owe this pleasure?

BUSH: Well, its true. Im thinking about running for president.

CLINTON: Well, Jeb, so am I.

BUSH: I just wanted to call and give you a heads-up in hopes we could work something out.
