TALLAHASSEE, Florida (CNN) -- The daughter of Florida Gov. Jeb Bush was arrested early Tuesday after she allegedly tried to fill a false prescription at a pharmacy, Tallahassee, Florida, police said.
Noelle Bush was picked up by police at a Walgreens store and charged with fraudulently obtaining a controlled substance, a jail spokesman said. Police said she was attempting to obtain Xanax, which is used to treat anxiety disorder. The drug can make users feel drowsy and dizzy as it reduces nervousness and tension.

We have no clue as to the details of this charge and absolutely no proof of any drug habits in the Bush family.

However, that being said, why did she need to get a false prescription?
I pray she gets the help she needs.
Maybe she is and she was just using the Xanatax to come off her high. Either way she should get some sympothy from the Florida crack crowd.
Not if it makes people repeat themselves.
Right, then she'll really be messed up!!!
