The 24 year old only son of former Vice President Al Gore was arrested for being stoned in a hybrid Toyota after being pulled over for speeding down a highway at 100 miles per hour. Okay, they called it “Suspicion of Drug Possession”. Can a hybrid even do 100 MPH?

According to sheriff’s spokesman Jim Amormino the Deputy smelled marijuana in Al Gore III’s eviromentally friendly car. A search of the vehicle turned up a virtual pharmacy including a small amount of marijuana in addition to Valium, Xanax, Vicodin, Adderall and Soma. Of course, there were no prescriptions found to go along with the party stash. Surely the courts will go easy on him for offsetting the marijuana’s hydrocarbon emissions with the use of a hybrid vehicle. Even at 100MPH it has to be less than your average “Intergalactic Ghetto Battle Cruiser”.

Although Al the 3rd was sober enough to identify himself as the former presidential hopeful turned environmental alarmist’s son, the sheriffs spokesman stated he received no special treatment.

It seems Gore did not spend all of his cash on dope or had saved enough on gas with his hybrid Toyota to afford the $20,000 bail and was released after about 12 hours in the pen.

Reuters seems to think it is relevant to mention a car accident the former presidential candidate’s some had been in when he was 6…

In 1989, aged six, Gore almost died when he was hit by a car, and required extensive surgery and physical therapy.

We can’t really blame Reuters for focusing on things like the car and the 1989 accident. After Daddy focused on the accident in his self Oscar winning fear generator. If only he had been arrested earlier maybe he could have had some Jail Time with Paris Hilton.

The sad truth is that this story will probably get mores links and Diggs than my stories on Education and Weapons of Mass Destruction. But my dear readers may prove me wrong on that?

Last but not least what do you think will happen to the stoner?
