The Daily Mail first reported that Cruz had used the drug.
"Teenagers are often known for their lack of judgment, and Sen. Cruz was no exception," a Cruz spokesman told the British paper. "When he was a teenager, he foolishly experimented with marijuana. It was a mistake, and he's never tried it since."
The admission makes Cruz the latest presidential candidate to own up to trying the drug. Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) recently copped to smoking pot while in high school as well.

That guy is as much of a libertarian as Maher.
Not only is he wrong on marijuana legalization, his views on foreign policy place him squarely in the neocon camp.
Apparently at least one commenter there agrees with me :
Sorry mate, you're not a libertarian and will never be close to becoming one. You're a neocon.
The argument of alcohol vs marijuana is absolutely baffling. You clearly have no idea what you're talking about. Go back to the Jerry Falwell praising, Bush apologist camp! We don't need freedom haters and constitution stompers like you!
