Albert A. Gore III, the son of former Vice President Al Gore, was arrested last night in Bethesda, Md. for possession of marijuana.

According to Montgomery County police, Gore was driving a dark-colored Cadillac through downtown Bethesda around 11:30 p.m. with the car's headlights off.

Police officers who were conducting a campaign against impaired driving during the holiday season stopped the car and noticed that despite the freezing temperature, all the car's windows were open as well as the sunroof.

When the officer spoke with the driver, Mr. Gore, he smelled the odor of marijuana coming from inside the car.

When officers searched the car, they found what appeared to be a partial marijuana cigarette near the center console area. They also found a baggie of suspected marijuana inside a cigartette box and a crushed soda can with an odor of marijuana coming from the interior of the can.

Gore and the two passengers in the car were charged with one count of possession of marijuana, a misdemeanor. All three were released pending trial.

That is a picture of Al Gore when he was in the service...knows how to handle a rifle, doesn't he?

LOL

He spent most of his time typing, and being protected cause his Daddy asked them to watch over him so he wouldn't get hurt.

Being a Politician's son has it's perks...

[KneelBeforeZod]

it will be ignored by the press.

for example, its only been on the AP wires, SF chronicle, NY Times, and chicago tribune.

Bump for posterity.

I just noticed his magazine well is empty. Pretty dangerous neighborhood!

Few individuals are "brave" enough to look steely eyed down the barrel of an M-16.

The fruit doesn't fall far from the tree.

I get that Pops Gore is the "tree" but are you also saying his kid is queer?

[Democratshavenobrains]

Do you guys hear that? It's the sound of dozens of DUers blaming Neo-cons for Gore's bust!

[Doctor Raoul]

If any is found, he should be imprisoned and his home confiscated.

"Get Out of Gore's House.....

Got a better source for your rumor yet?

A press release from a police department, hardly sounds like a rumor.

Of course there is that Associated Press report, but we all know how unreliable the Associated Press is.

If this was one of the Bush girls, Maureen Dowd would dedicate 4 columns to it.

Obviously whatever the punishment was that he got for his last "infraction" didn't stick.

So if Jeb Bush's daughter has a relapse of with prescription medications again, it was the lack of punishment? What about the Bush twins run ins for underage drinking. Obviously they didn't get taken behind the woodshed enough?

Sadly, offspring of both conservatives and liberals get involved in things they shouldn't. I can't explain why that happens.

I've seen children from the same family behave so totally differently. I've seen good families beset by bad kids. I've seen the most disgusting family circumstances produce good kids. Who knows? Yes, the environment they go up in can have an impact. Yet sometimes, for some reason, it doesn't.

You never know what's in the chamber unless you just cleared it.

[Democratshavenobrains]

As usual, the DUers take the mature and responsible POV...NOT!!!

"Christ... half a joint, too. But, in his defense, at least it isn't oxycontin, xanax, or any of those other Republican "designer drugs."

Lil' Al keeping it natural..."

[thesummerwind]

ROFL!

[Crawdad]

Still waiting on my Smoking Gun mugshot.

[Conservative til I die]

I see. Ted Kennedy killing Mary Jo Kopechne and Bill Clinton raping Juanita Broderick are on the same plane as Al Gore's kid smoking weed.

You need to learn about keeping things in perspective.

Runs(smokes) in the family

[jmstein7]

BUMP!

[Wolfie]

If any is found, he should be imprisoned and his home confiscated.

Amen.
