cavan,

Well, since Gore was reportedly still doing opium laced marijuana (Thai Sticks) as a sitting US Senator, what makes you think he has given it up?

Gore Smoked Pot as Senator, Friend Charges

A once close friend of Vice President Al Gore has added to charges that he and Gore regularly smoked marijuana until 1976, and now suggests that Gore used the illegal drug right up until he ran for vice president in 1992.

John C. Warnecke Jr. told Newsweek and DRCnet's This Week Online earlier this year that he supplied Gore with marijuana until the vice president began his 1976 campaign for Congress and that they smoked together three or four times a week.

"We smoked more than once, more than a few times, we smoked a lot," Warnecke said. "We smoked in his car, in his house, we smoked in his parents' house, in my house ... we smoked on weekends. We smoked a lot."

But, said Warnecke, he stopped supplying the drug to Gore after 1976.

During this period Gore worked with Warnecke at Nashville's Tennessean newspaper and attended Tennessee's Vanderbilt Divinty School, where he flunked out. Gore then enrolled in Vanderbilt Law School and dropped out after a middling academic career to seek public office.

In 1987 Gore told reporters that his use of the drug had been rare and had ended after he came home from Vietnam in 1971.

But in an interview Monday with WLAC-Nashville talk radio host Phil Valentine, Warnecke said that two old friends have called him since his accounts to Newsweek and DRCnet became public and said that they continued to supply Gore with marijuana during his 16-year congressional career:

WARNECKE: I smoked with him one time while he was actually campaigning.

VALENTINE: For Congress. That would be in '76.

WARNECKE: That's correct. Now, when I first came out with this story of covering up for Al just last year, I got two calls from two different people in Nashville who are old friends of mine and they told me after I left they became Al's source for marijuana. This continued while he was in Congress and while he was a senator.

VALENTINE: So, as recently as the early '90s he may have been using marijuana as well?

WARNECKE: Yes. As far as I know from these two people, and I consider them reliable sources, I really think Al was committing a crime while he was in office.

Warnecke declined to identify his two sources, telling Valentine only that they worked in the music industry and would deliver drugs to Gore at his Carthage, Tenn., farm. When Gore joined the 1992 presidential ticket, the contacts stopped abruptly.

Warnecke told Newsweek last year that Gore pressured him to lie about their drug use when he decided to seek the White House in 1988. He confirmed for reporters that Gore had used marijuana but did not go into detail. The confession ended their friendship.

Warnecke told Valentine that his account of Gore pressuring him to lie would be part of an upcoming edition of PBS's Frontline, scheduled for broadcast in October.

In his comments Monday, the former Gore friend added yet another new dimension to the vice president's past drug use:

VALENTINE: Was he (Gore) doing more than marijuana when you were with him or was it just pot?

WARNECKE: Well, we smoked hashish together and we smoked a type of marijuana called Thai sticks. It's a special high-grade marijuana that comes wrapped in a special stick from Thailand. And what they do is, after they wrap it around a stick, they dip it in opium.

Warnecke told Valentine he has been "clean" for twenty years.

Attempts by NewsMax.com to reach John Warnecke Tuesday

You whiny-arse liberals are a trip..... Who writes your material, Carville or Christopher...???

It would be interesting to see what State you wanted to have the trial in, after some slimeball beat and raped your sister - then slit her throat and left her to bleed to death in the parking lot at her work.

Your B.S. Internet BELTWAY BOOB hero has lost the damn election - and I'll personally be standing there with a "..GET OUTTA DODGE.." sign when they run that usurping SOB Clintwit's ass out of the Whitehouse...

Go butcher another baby, cavan - much easier than standing up on your hind two and being responsible.

OBTW: The rest of us are kind of tired of paying for Manson's keep.

Can we put one of those ankle radios on him, and let him come stay at your house...?? Sharon Tate and her dead baby must be real tickled, watching that twisted POS wolf down 3-squares-a-day at the California Hilton; another one of your "..heroes..", perhaps..?!?

Ooooops, me bad. I guess it wasn't a dead baby yet - in your view - since it hadn't fought it's way out of the birth canal - huh (just a zygote, or fetus, or sumthin' not quite definable to you - aye)..!!

John

ps: "......you, and the horse you rode in on.."!!
