"We smoked more than once, more than a few times, we smoked a lot. 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." --John C. Warnecke on his relationship with Al Gore

A DRCNet Exclusive By Adam J. Smith

The Week Online with DRCNet (stopthedrugwar.org) has learned that Newsweek Magazine decided late Friday to postpone publication of an excerpt of a Gore biography featuring eyewitness accounts of Al Gore's regular and continued drug use over a period of years. The drug use covers a period of Gore's life from his days at Harvard up until the very week he declared his candidacy for Congress in 1976, sources told The Week Online. The book, by Bill Turque of Newsweek's Washington bureau, quotes both named and unnamed sources, including John Warnecke, son of John Carl Warnecke  architect of the John F. Kennedy grave site, and a long-time friend of the Gores. An exclusive interview with Mr. Warnecke follows this story.

The excerpt had been scheduled to run in Newsweek's January 18th issue, just days before the start of the Democratic primaries. A previous excerpt from the book appeared in the December 6 issue. In that excerpt, which covered Gore's Vietnam experience, Tipper Gore was said to have spent considerable time, distraught with worry for her husband's safety, at Warnecke's house while Gore was overseas.

The Gore biography, to be published by Houghton-Mifflin, was itself originally scheduled for a January release, but that too has been delayed until March 23. A spokesman for Houghton-Mifflin told The Week Online that the delay was "normal."

(etc etc, even posting an interview)

In the old days of haze I never liked pipes because the tar buildup leaked and reeked something awful.

But then when I finally got around to cleaning out the mess, everything was cool and I thought pipes were the best.

Wonder how Gore handled this...

He still can't get a license to drive in Texas cuz he only follows the white line. IT"S TIME REFORM ALL VICTIMLESS CRIME LAWS, We all did it so what!

Maryjane supposedly accentuates your personality. I would be of the opinion that he must have been REALLY boring stoned.
