I want you guys to meet Jonathan Stickland, a Republican Texas State Representative.  You’ve met him in passing here before.  He’s cocky, immature, and his net worth is that he makes Democrats snicker.

He’s a big ole family values conservative.  Well, at least he was until this morning when his Republican primary opponent released some information.

From the Quorum Report.

The Republican primary challenger to Rep. Jonathan Stickland, R-Bedford, on Monday called on the incumbent to explain the fact that he has sought advice online about how to grow marijuana at home and also looked for someone with whom to “smoke da green.”

Stickland’s campaign was quick to answer that he has indeed smoked marijuana in the past and in doing so “wasted much of life, said and did things I wish I hadn’t.”

You know, like smoked marijuana.  Or, at least admitted to it before I got caught.

Stickland acknowledges past drug use but denies ever growing it in his home; he says “by the Grace of God my past sins are forgiven”

Tell ya what, Mr. Cocky, I’ll give you a dollar to pee in a cup.

Thanks to B. C. for the heads up.
