Al Gore busted for drugs while driving 100mph in his Prius!

[Capt.Erich]

I couldn't help but laugh at this. It's totally true...

Ok is was his son... Al Gore III... but still funny.

100mph in a Prius. I'm not sure I buy that part of the story.

Priceless!
I wonder what mpg a prius gets at 100 mph?

And to think, his dad INVINTED the computer....... Guess he should of invinted the speedometer and speed govenor.....

Hey, at least he used a fuel effcient car! Also, the weed is a natural product. The only mistake he made, was to also have the "processed" drugs, too. These would probably upset Dad.

Hopefully, Al III has learned something from all of this.

"100mph in a Prius. I'm not sure I buy that part of the story."

Maybe they dropped it out the back of a C130.

It gets better.... His sister picked him up from jail in her Maserati.

Real fuel efficient car there! What a bunch of hypocrates! Y'all going to the live aid for global warming this weekend?

 

[nor'easter]

No, I plan on burning 40 gph at cruise and hopefully boating limits of albacore!

Al Gore did not invent the computer. However, he claims to have invented the bong, which in the current instance is quite believable. Just kidding.

Priuses ARE fast; fast enough to drive aggressively and rudely on the DC Beltway, anyway. I don't think the mileage is as good when you're doing 100. Toyota is reported to have maxed one out at 130 at some dry lake or Utah or someplace. They are fairly aerodynamically sound. They are also quite ugly.

Hate to be a wet blanket, but I find this thread troubling. Seems to be a bit too much gloating for my taste.

It was Al jr. NOT Al sr. that was apprehended.

We all do the best we can raising our kids and cross our fingers when they leave the nest. Any of our kids could someday be in similar hot water from an episode of youthful indescretion. Just pray no one gets hurt in the process.

He should go to court, recieve punishment - or help - whatever is appropriate - and get on with life.

Must suck having your life in the spotlight just for being the child of someone famous.

Al the Bore put himself out there, so when you are preaching to the rest of us about global warming, and co2, you better get your own house straight first. 12 cylinder Masarati 5 miles per gallon, Gulfstream private jet, 4000 lbs of fuel per hour, 20,000 square foot mansion, zinc mine that pollutes the ground water, yea, Al is a real conservasionist! There is no way to defend this type of behavior, just another example of the liberals trying to tell 'us' how to live, while they do what they want. Al needs a serious reality check.

Just my $0.02
