Al Gore's son was cited for both underage drinking, reckless driving, and DUI. Seen many stories about that?
I am going to keep you in mind, and when the next story about the twins appears, which has NOTHING to do with their drinking but mentions it anyway, I trust you will be prepared to eat crow.
Personally, I don't care to dwell on Chelsea. I most heartily wish she would be allowed to have a private life, sparing us the fawning coverage of the media. I do care that the press maliciously targets the twins at every opportunity.
('Til they get caught with drugs anyway.)
Wouldn't Phillip and Elizabeth be the Great Grandparents? Charles and Diana would be the Grandparents on the Royal side.

Yes, MM. Thanks. I think that the Secret Service guy whisked her away if I recall correctly.
And as I said in my post #11, this article's headline versus what the write about in this story is blatantly biased and hypocritical, imho....
Good catch!

I'm not a Bushbot, so I'll say it. Even in humor, I think it's inappropriate to say the girls might do drugs. There has never been a suggestion of that.
Hmmm??.....buy one for Chelsea instead.
heh heh! i couldn't resist that....
Fabulous parody, Miss M. Only one picayune beef to note: the princess would have to be named "Diana Laura" in honor of her grandmothers, not great-grandmothers. Cheers!
Who cares? As long as she - and her "parents" - are out the picture - figuratively and literally - she can stay wherever the heck she wants!
BTW, now that the President's daughters are "legal", does that mean we can comment on how beautiful they are, without anyone thinking we're perverted old f*rts?
Albert Gore III, the 19-year-old son of former Vice President Al Gore, was arrested near the Pentagon last week by U.S. military police from Fort Myer and charged with driving under the influence of alcohol, reckless driving, and possession of alcohol by a minor.
Jano Cabrera, spokesman for the former vice president, confirmed yesterday that the younger Gore was "pulled over for a DWI" during the early-morning hours of Sept. 5. The arrest was made outside of the base, which is near the Pentagon.
"The family is relieved that no one was hurt," Mr. Cabrera told Inside the Beltway. "Beyond that, they are dealing with this privately as a family."
Mr. Cabrera stressed that Mr. Gore was alone in the car and was not speeding. Ned Christensen, the spokesman for Fort Myer, said the case has been turned over to the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of Virginia. A federal court appearance is pending.
This is the younger Gore's second brush with the law in as many years. He was arrested on Aug. 12, 2000, by the North Carolina Highway Patrol when clocked driving 97 mph in a 55 mph zone. Under an agreement with prosecutors, a reckless-driving charge was dropped, he was fined $125 for speeding and his driving privileges were temporarily revoked.
Washington Times (Sept. 13, 2002).
Give it a rest...The Bush Twins brought this all on by themselves. There is no bias here, only conservative chicken littles who give us all a bad name with the constant whining when no wrong has been done.
The media cover-up of Gore Jr.'s latest brush with the law stands in marked contrast to alcohol-related offenses involving the Bush family, stories the press has repeatedly rushed into print over the last two years.
As of Saturday morning, the New York Times, the Washington Post, the Associated Press and most other big media outlets had declined to cover Gore Jr.'s alcohol-fueled antics, which came to an abrupt halt when he was pulled over by military police just outside the Pentagon.
But after Gore spokesman Jano Cabrera confirmed the arrest to the Times "Inside the Beltway" column, the paper went public with the news on Friday. ...
So what on earth is the big deal about sipping a damn beer?
