Equal Time

When the Bush sisters appeared all over the papers the reason given was that they were repeat offenders. It should be interestign to see how many of those same papers publish the latest in a series of exploits by Al Gore's son.
Albert Gore II has been arrested for marijuana possession.
As with all his previous problems this one took place in a car.

In September 2002, the younger Gore was ticketed for driving under the influence. He was pulled over and ticketed by military police just outside Fort Myer in suburban Virginia, but was not taken into custody.

In the summer of 2000, Gore was cited by the North Carolina Highway Patrol for driving 97 mph in a 55-mph zone. Under an agreement with prosecutors, a reckless driving charge was dropped in the North Carolina case, but he was fined &dol;125 for speeding and his driving privileges in the state were suspended.

Now that he has been arrested for a thrid time it should be interesting to see what kind of press he gets or as is more likely the case doesn't get.
