Al Gore is a waste of breath IMHO.
But just as I thought it ugly and unrelated to his political life and actions when Jeb Bush's adult daughter was busted for drugs, I will also not bash Gore for the actions of his son.
I have a child.
I do not think the actions of ones adult children should be held against the parent.
That smacks of maliciousness, IMHO.
Al Gore himself provides plenty of self induced targets for derision, without bringing the failings of his adult progeny into the mix.
I hope you have very few bumps on this thread.
I hope we are better than that.

On one level, I agree with you. On the other hand, the fact that this story broke in this fashion is amazing, considering the previous "cover-ups". Al Gore III is clearly in need of an intervention, especially considering he's been a user since the age of 13 (or maybe earlier......).

Maybe by this story going more public, maybe that will happen.

I agree with sarasmom, family members should be off limits,
Look how classy Jeb handled the situation with his daughter.
If we start the..."your kid is"....argument do we really want to go there?

Not that we cant talk about it here. Fortunately this is a place were we can openly discuss stuff.

Agreeded.

Chelsea Clinton is fair game for injecting herself into the political public with her DNC talkin' point: "with the tax cut, we wouldn't have enough money to repair New York".

Jenna, Barabra, and Albert the III have stayed out of it.
