Al Gore's Son Busted!

Al Gore IIIAl Gore III, the 24-year-old son of Al Gore was arrested on suspicion of drug possession today. The former second-in-command's son was pulled over after allegedly driving his Prius 100 miles an hour down an Orange County freeway. (At least he was driving a Prius!) When deputies searched the car they found pot, along with Valium, Xanax, Vicodin and Adderall. He is currently being held at the Santa Ana Inmate Reception Center on $20,000 bail.

This isn't Gore III's first arrest. He was charged with marijuana possession in 2003 and was ticketed for reckless driving in 2000 and 2002.

2. Al Gore should take his sons car away and make him ride a horse because that actually makes the environment more safer.

5. Pot shouldn't be illegal in the first place, so big deal. People who smoke it regularly don't get intoxicated like you do when you're drunk, so it's not as if he was drinking & driving. Mixing it with prescription drugs can make you drowsy, though, so hopefully he wasn't using the Xanax & Valium before driving.

12. If you are going to be in politics don't have kids. You are already a target, don't let them be one too.

Posted at 12:34PM on Jul 4th 2007 by oooops

13. The last time Al Gore came close to being funny was on SNL's The Chocolate Factory...first time I ever saw him have a real sense of humour.

Now his son is just being a normal California boy minus the prescription drugs.

But you have to admit, this is a really funny story. Not so much in the Gore residence, but funny, none the less. Happy 4th of July to the Gore family, I am sure you will be reminded of the 4th of July FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIVES.
