WASHINGTON — In 1977, a young man who would later serve in Congress was charged with possession of Valium in Madison Heights, Mich.

In 1995, during his first term in the U.S. House from a Houston-area district, Steve Stockman conceded that he’d had many brushes with the law, including one weekend jail stint that nearly cost him two years in prison because a girlfriend had slipped some Valium pills into his underwear to help him pass the time.

On Jan. 31, Stockman — now challenging Sen. John Cornyn in the March 4 primary — filed a libel suit in Houston against a pro-Cornyn group. He accuses the pro-Cornyn group of “falsely and maliciously accusing me of a felony…. Of course, I have never been charged with or committed any such act, and these anonymous Cornyn supporters know it.”

By then, this newspaper had already documented some of the political whoppers Stockman had leveled in the course of the Senate campaign.
