He had marijuana, under an ounce, in California that's a $100 fine. California decriminalized pot 30 years ago and made it a parking-ticket style offense. I know this because after the law was passed in 1977 I was stopped on the street , given a ticket, and my friends and I went on our merry way.
He had Vicodin. Big deal. I had a tooth pulled last y ...[text shortened]... em.
Much ado about nothing, except for his reckless driving. THAT was a hazard and a crime.

Is ATY a politician? Because he also got stopped with drugs in his car, although he didn't name the make and model. The kid thought he could get off by mentioning daddy's name, which is the same as any kid whose parent is in a position of fame or power. He used drugs, like 2/3 of the people on this site. I think you left out whatever supports your statement. Perhaps you meant "Damn politicians are just like the rest of us!"
Originally posted by MerkIt's fun to make fun of Bush's kids because he talks about "family values" a lot. Gore doesn't, so this doesn't make him out to be a hypocrite. It's a major difference between liberals and conservatives I think. So Gore's a normal parent whose kids are imperfect. He doesn't go on and on about family values, does he? So who cares?
The trick to erasing your post is actually reading it. Look at the part where you said, he's a liberal. Why does what matter?
This is a social issue, so I tend to agree with liberals. If it were a financial issue things would likely be different.

EDIT - Yuck. I don't like the Gores.

I think you'll find the Gore family has done more values crusading than the Bushies.
Originally posted by pawnhandlerI didn't have time to count all the posts and come up with the 2/3 figure you did, so I'll just have to take your word for it.
Read the general forum posts about drugs. I'm starting to think I stink at chess because I don't do drugs.
You probably stink at chess for the same reason I do.
You don't spend any/enough time working on improving your game.
You just play for "fun". Drugs won't help you there pal.
