Comedian Snorts Coke Near Obama?
By Wyatt Earp | October 23, 2009
Okay, let me start off with a few thoughts. First, I think David Cross is terribly unfunny. Never liked the guy, and I thought “Arrested Development” was a terrible show. Second, this guy is full of crap. While he may be a coke-head, I highly doubt he snorted just yards away from the president at an official White House function. And finally, if this story is true, he is a jackass for doing it and an even bigger jackass for bragging about it.
The guy is like school in the summertime: no class.
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.
Cross said that he was seated “super close to the president” and seated with or near former Transportation Secretary Norman Mineta, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, former Defense Secretary Don Rumsfeld, Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia and “the editor-in-chief of the USA Today.”
“But it’s crazy and there’s security, Secret Service is standing there,” said Cross. “I’ve got photos of all this. … I’m there and the president is right here and with all these people at the table” Cross snorted some coke, he said. “Maybe 40 feet from the president of the United States!”

Sorry, but I don’t buy it. Not for a second.

Sounds like he needs a kilo shoved up his ass. What a jerk if it is true. Under most administrations I would think the IRS or somebody might pay him a friendly visit but in this one he might get invited to a coke summit at the White House.

He’s an idiot (but I still think “Arrested Development” was funny!)

Well, he has admitted to snorting coke.
Have your beat cops go and arrest him. Prosecute him based on his confession. He broke the law.
Arrest him!
Oh ya, that’s right. Cops have no real power in the case of a presidential guest.
Oh well.

My guess is he was playing himself in “arrested development”. Just another hollywood jerk.

If I had to sit near the president, I’d need to be drugged, too…
