Oh How I Love This!

Al Gore's son busted for drugs in hybrid car:

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - The 24-year-old son of former Vice President Al Gore was arrested for drug possession on Wednesday after he was stopped for speeding in his hybrid Toyota Prius, a sheriff's official said.

Al Gore III -- whose father is a leading advocate of policies to fight global warming - was driving his environmentally friendly car at about 100 miles per hour on a freeway south of Los Angeles when he was pulled over by an Orange County sheriff's deputy at about 2:15 a.m.

The deputy smelled marijuana and searched the car, said sheriff's spokesman Jim Amormino. The search turned up a small amount of marijuana, along with prescription drugs including Valium, Xanax, Vicodin, Adderall and Soma. There were no prescriptions found, he said.

Item #1: Who knew a Prius could do 100??
Item #2: Ya gotta love the idea of Al Gore lecturing you and me about our "carbon footprint" while his son creates a "cannabis footprint."
Item #3: If my dad was Al Gore, I would need more serious drugs than Valium, Xanax, Vicodin, Adderall and Soma.
