Gore Goes Guilty (Won't do time even if he wants to)

Al Gore III pleaded guilty Monday to possessing marijuana and other drugs, but a judge told the former Veep's son he can withdraw that plea and have the charges dropped if he successfully completes a drug diversion program. What a bargain!

Cops say the 24-year-old was going 100+ MPH in his Prius on an Orange County freeway when they pulled him over. Multiple drugs were found in his car.

Did anyone REALLLLY think Al Gore the 3rd would actually do time? Come on, he's Al Gore's kid.

No, he is going to rehab. While there he will fake his way through it and not make any progress towards recovery. He may even find a way to get high while there.

He will relapse and eventually overdose. Gore and his wife will say this demonstrates that not enough of our tax dollars are going for treatment and that if "drugs were just legal" his son would still be alive.

Think he’s be copying Lindsey Lohan’s notes at class?

[Kevmo]

Obviously this story is a fake: was going 100+ MPH in his Prius

[dead]

Like it did for his dimwitted dad, having a well-connected father saves Albert III from settling into the life his skill set merits:

[weegee]

Or if you were a social pariah like Paris Hilton...

[UCANSEE2]

Wonder what would happen if it was me in chair instead of gore III.

Or Rush Limbaugh with prescription oxycontins?

Must be related to teddy the swimmer...

“Think he’s be copying Lindsey Lohan’s notes at class?”

I hear there’s an open room available at “The Promises”.

I drive in the OC every day. When the rest of the FReepers were saying “He went 100 mph in a PRIUS?” I was saying “He went 100 mph in ORANGE COUNTY??”

I’m not sure what the photo posted has to do with the primary subject but please, please post more.

[Doctor Raoul]

Global Warning?

[river rat]

The more I hear about the beautiful people and politicians being exempt from the laws I must obey -— it makes the Killing Fields of Cambodia a lot more understandable...

It appears a new “monarchy” has risen in America....

Animal Farm has come true!

When the SHTF in America - these folks had better be far away.......

[RatSlayer]

Yaelle said “Seriously, does ANYONE else get these deals?”

Well, if you’re the wife of Senator John McCain and your caught stealing prescription drugs from the charity that you’re working for...

then you get off scot free.

[Grizzled Bear]

lil’gore will not do time even if he kills someone while going 100 mph...

Who does he think he is, a Kennedy?

[Diogenesis]

Definitely two Americas.

Medical marijuana ===> Jail

Politician or their family with grass, Xanax, Valium,
Vicodin, Adderall, caught for the 3rd time ===> no problema

Al Gore III pleaded guilty Monday...

And here I thought he was the one that crashed a hot-wired car into the nuke weapons plant in TN.

[1066AD]

Hell if you’re John McCain you get off (almost) scot free (Keating Five).

[Logical me]

Nothing new here. I live in this lolly land of the stupid and corrupt. Kept clean, but if ever stopped or have to go to court I’ll make sure I yell “I’m a Democrat”. Why the hell not, nothing else works here. Better still, I’ll carry a Mexican flag and utter “No speaky English”.

[cubreporter]

Well, this can be on the shoulders of the Judge should this air head have another accident while under the influence or possession of drugs. Let’s just hope an innocent person does not die in the meantime. If one does...there will be an outcry of how the “celebrities” get off easy.
