Hate to spoil all the fun the leftys are having with Jenna Bush but......ah hell, I love to spoil their fun:
Trouble for Gore
Albert Gore III, the 19-year-old son of former Vice President Al Gore, was arrested near the Pentagon last week by U.S. military police from Fort Myer and charged with driving under the influence of alcohol, reckless driving, and possession of alcohol by a minor.
Jano Cabrera, spokesman for the former vice president, confirmed yesterday that the younger Gore was "pulled over for a DWI" during the early-morning hours of Sept. 5. The arrest was made outside of the base, which is near the Pentagon.
"The family is relieved that no one was hurt," Mr. Cabrera told Inside the Beltway. "Beyond that, they are dealing with this privately as a family."
Mr. Cabrera stressed that Mr. Gore was alone in the car and was not speeding.
Ned Christensen, the spokesman for Fort Myer, said the case has been turned over to the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of Virginia. A federal court appearance is pending.
This is the younger Gore's second brush with the law in as many years. He was arrested on Aug. 12, 2000, by the North Carolina Highway Patrol when clocked driving 97 mph in a 55 mph zone. Under an agreement with prosecutors, a reckless-driving charge was dropped, he was fined $125 for speeding and his driving privileges were temporarily revoked.
