Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) smoked pot when he was a teenager, Cruz's campaign has confirmed with The Hill. "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. Poster Comment: He's still trippin', after all these years?.

But did he "inhale" when smoking weed....should we need to know that? And, are libertarians just Republicans who smoke pot?
He had to be stoned to get that tattoo of Winston Churchill. A loyal British Canadian subject, eh?.
Anyone who gets a tattoo is either stoned or an idiot.
In Gatlin's version of America - all tattoos will be licensed and approved by the state.
Gatlin approved tattoo, Tricky Dicky
Nah, this meets my approval....a tattoless back:
That must really suck for you when you think someone "has it all together" and then after a period of time find out they have a tattoo that you couldn't see. Maybe you could try judging people on their character and actions rather than whether or not they meet your capricious and antiquated opinion of what is prim and proper.
When I see someone all decked out in ink something like this:

You missed the point - as usual. Does your brain explode when you find out someone who you think "has it all together" reveals a tattoo? How does your pea-sized brain reconcile your shattered illusions? Do us all a favor - next time you see a guy with one of these, go up and tell him that he "has some deep-seated psychological trauma and is seeking a poor outlet for it by trying to express some sentiments via ink" then sarcastically say to him : "Wow, you really have it all together!"
I am judging the person by their character and actions.. Me too. And it so rarely looks artful in any way. Now and then, I like reading an article about how some idiot got some Japanese tattoo (stylish to some people) that supposedly has some profound wisdom and then they find out from someone who speaks Japanese that their tattoo says something like "I'm a smelly moron" or similar. Also, I've seen a couple of those "Tattoos Gone Bad" shows where people are making themselves miserable trying to cover up tattoos of old girlfriends' names or similar. At a Los Angeles tattoo parlor four years ago, he had two Chinese characters etched in a prominent spot on his left forearm. He assumed that the translation in the sample book the tattoo artist showed him — "one love" — was correct. The first sign of trouble came six months later, when Mr. Magness was shopping at a Staples store and the checkout clerk informed him that the characters on his arm meant not "one love" but "love hurts." Mr. Magness consulted some bilingual co-workers, who confirmed the bad news: his tattoo did indeed trumpet the pain of failed love.

Gatlin approved tattoo...
When see a tattoo, I assume the person has some deep-seated psychological trauma they seek a poor outlet for by trying to express some sentiments via ink. Or, they may be seeking some way to control some PTSD by going through a painful process of getting a tattoo. I have never look at a person with a tattoo and said: Wow, you really have it all together!

If I don't see it, then I don't know it's there. If I don’t know it’s there, then how could that possibly bother me? It could not. Your logic is badly flawed. Maybe you could try judging people on their character and actions rather than whether or not they meet your capricious and antiquated opinion of what is prim and proper.

SHAD MAGNESS wanted to celebrate the love he felt for his young son with a grand gesture.
