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.

To give these ratty neo-fascists a taste of their own medicine, Al Gore's house should be vacuumed for additional drug evidence, trace or otherwise. If any is found, he should be imprisoned and his home confiscated.

I bet the media give him the same treatment they gave Jeb's daughter in Florida...NOT!

Unless he had the marijuana on his person one of the others will take the fall.
If it was just in the car one of the others will claim that it was his and Goreboy will get off.

Bethesda, my home town.
I remember the Montgomery County cops too lol
I violated the right-of-way of a cop car down in Bethesda my senior year of HS. Lucky for me a polite repentant smile and lots of "Yes, Sir" got me an admonishment to "be more careful". I didn't even have get out of the car.
Back then it was still a bit like a small town. It's all DC sprawl now, I wouldn't even know my way around I'm sure. There's always been lots of VIP and assorted other rich kids getting caught in various forms of rebellion, so this wasn't any big deal I'm sure. But, sounds like Al Jr. ain't too bright driving around Bethesda like that LOL

Didn't Algore invent STUPID? Nope. But he perfected it.

I don't blame the son. If Algore were my father, I would be smoking crack to kill the pain.

It wasn't a tobacco arrest so there shouldn't be any problem in the Gore house.

Come on, we didn't like when they did it to the Bush girls and we shouldn't make a big deal about this.

How can you compare the harmless smoking of an illegal substance while operating a car with the headlights off at night ...with underage drinking in a restaurant?/sarcasm
