David Cross Snorted Cocaine 'Super Close to the President'
He's a comedian, so who knows if he's joking or not, but David Cross is claiming he brought cocaine to the recent White House Correspondents' Association dinner and snorted it "maybe 40 feet from" the president. During a stand-up routine this week, the 'Arrested Development' star said he and his "fancy Hollywood actress" girlfriend Amber Tamblyn were seated "super close" to President Barack Obama and near several members of the president's cabinet when he thought: Yep, it's a good time to do drugs.On a dare from a friend, he decided to do something that even he admits was "crazy." Via Politico Click:
"But it's crazy and there's security, Secret Service is standing there ... I've got photos of all this. I'm there and the president is right here and with all these people at the table" he snorted coke. "Maybe 40 feet from the president of the United States!"
He texted his friend to say, "No way you can ever top that."
The party may have "White House" in the title, but it isn't held there. This year, drinks and jokes (and apparently cocaine) were enjoyed at the Hilton Hotel on May 9.

Is that something to be proud of? Snorting coke period is moronic, to brag about doing it near the President is beyond that.

It's a shame that his public admission of this act can't be treated as a confession and used to lock this stupid man up. What kind of a thing is that to brag about? His obvious and total disregard for the law, disrespect for the Office of President of the United States and even himself should land him a nice little stay in a prison somewhere. Of course, that's not going to happen and that's too bad. I hope at the very least he's blackballed (not eight balled) from ever attending another function at the White House. Shame on you. And btw, if it's a joke, it's not a very funny one.

Maybe they should make an exapmle out of him instead of all those other so unlucky people in this world that have been made an example out of!!

So now I've lost a lot of respect for Amber Tamlyn as well. Anyone hanging with this loser hasn't got much going for themselves. Sad.

Calling Cross a comedian is exceedingly generous. He comes across as a smarmy, jackass on screen. And apparently he is one off the screen as well and probably a liar. But what I find really surprising is that Amber Tamblyn, 2nd generation acting genes, talented and okay looking, would date that little troll. I hope she is just window dressing so he can stay in the closet. Gay men, you are welcome to this one, Cross is all yours!

Well, you have to consider the source, a comedian, who, at his best is unfunny, at his worst is terrible and moronic.

What an smarmy, arrogant, stupid, assh*le. Too bad the Secret Service didn't drag his dumb*ss out of the room and throw him into D.C. jail where he could get a real education in appropriate behavior.

Have you people forgotten that Barack Obama has also admitted to USING Cocaine and Marijuana? And please don't say I am lying.

Don't forget, the prez has used cocaine as well. Research Larry Sinclair, online, who has written a book pertaining to him and the prez. It's a very interesting book to say the least.

There's no way he did that. It was all part of a comedy act. I've seen those kinda acts. Nobody's stupid enough to do that kind of thing.

There is nothing more moronic about snorting cocaine than drinking alcohol and smoking cigarettes, which many millions of Americans do everyday. I commend him for his honesty and rebellious spirit: Both of those things are sadly lacking in our world today.

What a full fledged idiot. Too bad he didn't get caught, charged and jailed. Too bad.
And Tristan, you are an idiot too. Cocaine use is illegal. What a cokehead statement.

Maybe this is a "warning shot" to the Secret Service. Hell, down in this hick town of Bartow, Floridaaaahhh if you enter the courthouse you have to go through a "sniffer" booth that checks to see if you have been around drugs, explosives, or have not bathed!!! What's wrong with these people?????
