Cross: I Did Coke at WHCD
Politico ^ | 10/22/2009 | Patrick Gavin

Posted on 10/22/2009 11:59:29 AM PDT by fiscon1

Comedian David Cross brought his stand-up routine to Washington's Warner Theatre Wednesday night and made a shocking confession (assuming he wasn't joking...) at the end of his routine: That he snorted cocaine while seated just yards away from President Barack Obama at this year's White House Correspondents' Association dinner.

"So I got to go because my girlfriend is a fancy Hollywood actress and she got an invitation to go this last time, so we went," the "Arrested Development" star told the crowd. He went on to say that he has an ongoing competition with a friend in which the two try to constantly out-do each other in "dares and outrageousness."

Did he share with Hussein or the other way around?

I don’t know if we could hold the any President responsible for the actions of the guest.
If this guy was openly trying to give himself a blow job or was very open about taking the illegal drugs, then someone in security should have at least removed him IMO.

If they were sneaky, what can you do shy of having drug sniffing dogs for all guests on the way in.

From Wikipedia:

“In April 2005, Cross criticized stand-up comedian Larry the Cable Guy in a Rolling Stone interview, saying, “It’s a lot of anti-gay, racist humor — which people like in America — all couched in ‘I’m telling it like it is.’ He’s in the right place at the right time for that gee-shucks, proud-to-be-a-redneck, I’m-just-a-straight-shooter-multimillionaire-in-cutoff-flannel-selling-ring-tones act. That’s where we are as a nation now. We’re in a state of vague American values and anti-intellectual pride.”

Actually I think he would be able to do himself because of being spineless, not all that hung at all.

Of course not, why would you even say that?

Because security should remove anyone they can spot doing openly bad things, especially near a President.

If they are sneaky though, can’t say that security could or would want to catch them.

For what it’s worth, Willie Nelson claims he smoked weed on the roof of the White House when visiting during the Carter years. If I remember the tale correctly.

First of all, all the evidence from this story comes from Cross. So, there’s no way to confirm this is even true. Second, if true, your beef is with secret service not the president. So, why are even suggesting that the president is at fault? Is ODS so bad that he’s responsible for the secret service not doing their jobs also?

There were Party Favors at each place setting at the Warner Theatre. First was a small mirror, a razor, and an envelope with a white powdery substance in it. The other was a small stash of chopped greenish leaves and stems, some rolling papers and a clip.

I’m not saying that it was cocaine or marijuana, now, just describing what was there.

“So I got to go because my girlfriend is a fancy Hollywood actress”

Apparently he refers to Amber Tamblyn.

You need to read the posts you are responding to.
Two posts.
First said no President could directly be responsible for guests. I also said the only way security would have caught someone doing drugs would be if they were obvious.
Second one I said something like the only way to stop things like drug use would to use a drug sniffing dog on all those entering the event (which I doubt they would want to do). I think it is a non issue, so I don't know where you thought I posted the exact opposite.

Well, things rot from the head down. Obama is the ultimate boss of every federal employee. Although, dating back to the Clinton years there have been attempts to pretend they don’t.
