(AP) Al Gore III, 24, was driving a blue Toyota Prius about 100 mph on the San Diego Freeway when he was pulled over at about 2:15 a.m., Sheriff's Department spokesman Jim Amormino said.

The deputies said they smelled marijuana and searched the car, Amormino said. They found less than an ounce of marijuana along with Xanax, Valium, Vicodin and Adderall, which is used for attention deficit disorder, he said.

"He does not have a prescription for any of those drugs," Amormino said.

Gore was being held in the men's central jail in Santa Ana on $20,000 bail.

Kalee Kreider, a spokeswoman for his parents, did not immediately return phone messages to The Associated Press on Wednesday.

The son of the former vice president and Democratic presidential nominee also was pulled over and arrested for pot possession in December 2003, in Bethesda, Md., while he was a student at Harvard University.

He completed substance abuse counseling as part of a pretrial diversion program to settle those charges.

The youngest of Al and Tipper Gore's four children and their only son, Gore lives in Los Angeles and is an associate publisher of GOOD, a magazine about philanthropy aimed at young people.

Thank goodness it was a Prius..

 

A Prius will do 100 mph? Huh, who'da thunk it?

 

Thats what I was thinking! Who gives a chit about the stupid kid.....I want want of those bad **** Prius's.

 

How many weeks did it take him to get the Prius up to 100MPH?

TSC

 

Musta had a tuner chip that removed the speed limiter........

 

must have been going downhill or it was being pulled by a f150

 

his Prius is a carbon offset

 

This will make Al Gore an even bigger God to the lefties -- everyone knows they love smoking pot!!!

 

i bet he will get a free pass from the press. if this had been bushes daughters you can bet the farm that the press would be all over it, 24/7......

 

You know it..

THIS IS CNN..

VICODIN / ADDERALL WATCH 2007

Weed, who cares?

A ****load of 'scrips that you have no right to? Hmmmm??

Don't worry, it'll be buried faster than Britney's latest restraining order.

Algore is funny on SNL, that's all that matters, yes?

 

The good ole Anheuser-Bush twins.....hadn't heard of them since they've been legally able to drink.




Maybe Rush will give up some advice on how to spin the illegal prescriptions.

 

lets just vote richardson in. he just made marijuana legal in new mexico. hell we can GROW it.

the toyota prius tops out about a 100 mph. best friends wife went and bought one. it's got ALOT of room in it. half the time it runs on battery, the other half on motor. did i mention they get on average 68 mph in the city and about 97mpg open highway??

 

Lets not overdue the mileage on the Prius.......My son has a 2007. It gets 44mpg on the highway. Not bad, but not anywhere near 98.

 

This is Gore 3s plea for national health care, just think, he surely "needs" all those drugs and obviously his parents can't afford them for him... oh wait, they spend more per month on electricity than most of us make...

And his Grandma uses dog drugs, because regular drugs are so expensive... and Al wouldn't spring for real drugs...

I think I'll go buy some carbon offsets to help with the F150...

 

LMAO ! ! !

I was thinking the same thing.



As far as the topic goes.......lets hope he can clean up.
