Al Gore's son busted for drugs in hybrid car
Wed Jul 4, 2007 6:26PM BST

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - The 24-year-old son of former Vice President Al
Gore was arrested for drug possession on Wednesday after he was stopped
for allegedly speeding in his hybrid Toyota Prius, a sheriff's official
said.

Al Gore III -- whose father is a leading advocate of policies to fight
global warming -- was driving his environmentally friendly car at about
100 miles (160 km) per hour on a freeway south of Los Angeles when he
was pulled over by an Orange County sheriff's deputy at about 2:15 a.m..

A subsequent search yielded a small amount of marijuana, along with
prescription drugs including Valium, Xanax, Vicodin and Adderall, said
sheriff's spokesman Jim Amormino. There were no prescriptions found, he
said.

Gore was arrested on suspicion of drug possession and booked into the
Inmate Reception Centre in Santa Ana, about 34 miles (55 km) south of
Los Angeles, on $20,000 bail, he said.

It was not Gore's first brush with the law. He was arrested in 2003 for
marijuana possession and in 2002 for suspected drunken-driving.

Gore was still in custody as of mid-morning and was sharing a holding
cell with an unknown number of people, said Orange County Sheriff's
spokesman Jim Amormino.

"There are no special privileges," he told Reuters.

Gore cooperated with law enforcement as soon he was pulled over and
quickly identified himself as the son of the former vice president,
Amormino said.

Awwww ... POOR AL (Sr.) !!! So much for that suprise
presidential bid. With a chronic pill-head for a kid,
well, that just wouldn't sell with the drug-warriors
and all the businesses & pols who profit from that 'war'.

At least the car was "environmentally friendly". Imagine
if it was a huge gas-guzzling *SUV* !!! :-)

Hey, maybe he can lock Sonny in the attic and just
parade those gorgous daughters before the cameras ...

1) He first made the news during the Dem national convention for going
something like 100 mph. The media hushed it up. I would've thought you
would've still been gassing on about that one. In this case, his
interaction with law enforcement is out right away. So we've made some
progress.

2) This is the same kid, I think, that Al Gore keeps talking about
having changed his life (Al's) by almost getting killed when he was run
over by a truck. Gore talks about this and has all talked about it in
pretty much every book and documentary he's done. For example, "Earth in
the Balance" and in "An Inconvenient Truth".

3) His injuries were life threatening according to Gore and who knows if
pain killers for that have made him into a junkie. Who knows what demons
drive him to drive so fast. Having Al Gore around all his young life
could send anyone over the edge. Maybe he should take up sport racing or
something, Indy Car. No, couldn't pass the drugs test. I know, the Tour
Duh France, they'll take anyone.

Wow, he should get together with Bush's daughters. They could party!

Why? A far more extensive record of partying didn't hurt W's efforts to
land at 1600 PA Ave., or have you forgotten that already?

Gore Jr. also doesn't have anything on the Bush twins, Jenna
and....who's the other one, Annheiser?

Politician's kid factor aside, looks like you can add "drugged
drivers" to your nym.

He drives 100mph, smokes pot, and uses prescription drugs
recreationally? Sounds like the kind of politician I could support.
Think we could convince him to take up dear old dad's profession?

BTW, what kind of mileage does the Prius gets at 100mph?

Family scandals don't stop you from being President. Bush 41's father and
maternal grandfather were major financial supporters of Hitler. Bush's
father had a big chunk of assets seized in 1942 under the Trading With The
Enemy Act. Aiding American's worst enemy while we're at war. That's a
little more serious than a son who abuses drugs and drives too fast.

Yet Presott's son was elected President, as well as his grandson - who had
his own drunk driving conviction. Sorry to disappoint you, but as soon as
Hilary annoys enough people to look unelectable Gore will walk in and waltz
to victory.

Oh, those environmentally consious Democrats, har-de-har, much funnier than,
oh, Cheney getting six figure checks every year from Halliburton, while
serving as Vice-President.

Now you're thinking of Bush 43.

No need for me to state the obvious. Now stop being a criminal coddler.
