All it took was John Morgan, the father of Florida’s marijuana movement, to call Gwen Graham out on her position on legalizing marijuana for her to start doing political gymnastics again!
She did a triple back flip in less than four hours!
During the first Democratic gubernatorial debate, Graham said this regarding legalizing marijuana:
Graham: "I believe we have got to get the medical marijuana firmly implemented and having everyone taking advantage of it. And then we can talk about further steps.”
John Morgan tweeted to the world:
“If @GwenGraham is a no on full legalization, I am a no on Gwen. She is a friend but not a friend to those incarcerated for pot crimes: the poor, minorities, young people.
This is not a general election, this is the FL Democratic primary. Gwen say it ain’t so! #NoSmokeIsAJoke”

It didn’t take long for Gwen to offer up a different position to Morgan, proving that she will say anything, and do anything, including stretch the truth, to win the Governor’s mansion.
Graham quickly offered this up to Morgan:
“@JohnMorganESQ, I am for getting medical marijuana done in the broadest possible way to ensure patients have access to the medicinal products they choose, including smokable.
And I'm for decriminalizing, because no one should have their lives ruined or go to jail over marijuana.”

What Gwen Graham says isn’t what Gwen Graham will do. She showed us that while she was in Congress. (Keystone Pipeline, gun control, Syrian refugees, weakening ObamaCare).
Oh, and the “PTA mom” doesn’t know about the state education budget.
She will tell you what you want to hear as long as she can get what she wants.
I ask the question again:
Will the real Gwen Graham please stand up?
