Who knew?

Just when you thought there weren't any more jokes that could be made about the villiage idiot Al Gore, his idiot son goes and creates a whole new angle for comedy at Al's expense...

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 allegedly 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..

A subsequent search yielded a small amount of marijuana, along with prescription drugs including Valium, Xanax, Vicodin and Adderall, said sheriff's spokesman Jim Amormino. There were no prescriptions found, he said.

The shock here isn't that Al Gore's son smokes dope, all kooky environmentalists probably do. Neither is it shocking that a pharmacy's worth of recreational prescription drugs was found in his possession. Who wouldn't need to be medicated to live with being the fruit of Al Gore's loins? No the shocker in this story is that he managed to get a Prius to go 100mph. He should get off for that feat alone.
