Biden's Daughter Caught Up In Cocaine Scandal
2009-03-29
An explosive video being shopped to media outlets has plunged the White House and Vice President Joe Biden into a cocaine scandal, RadarOnline.com has learned exclusively.

The video shows a woman, who is represented by the seller and his attorneys to be Biden's daughter Ashley, snorting several lines of cocaine. The tape has been viewed by a RadarOnline.com freelance reporter who confirms the woman looks identical to Ashley Biden.

Tom Dunlap, an attorney for Dunlap, Grubb and Weaver in Washington D.C. is representing the seller of the tape in brokering a deal and several news organizations have seen the footage. In addition to RadarOnline.com, representatives for the New York Post, a large British newspaper and the National Enquirer have all viewed the tape.

The woman on the tape clearly resembles Ashley Biden, 27, who is a social worker employed with the Delaware Department of Children, Youth and Families. She is also a board member of the Delaware YWCA organization. The tape was shot this year.

On the tape a man cuts up five lines of what is said to be cocaine. The woman who the seller says is Ashley then jokes with the man that the lines aren't big enough. The man hands her a rolled-up dollar bill and she proceeds to walk a few steps to a table where the cocaine is cut. She pulls her hair back, bends down and snorts a line.

Four lines of white powdery substance are clearly visible on the table, which is in front of a computer. After she snorts the first line, the woman said to be Ashley lifts her head and wipes her nose. She then snorts a second and third line before the tape cuts off.

The tape was made without her knowledge. It is being shopped for $250,000.

The events on the tape are represented as taking place at a party in Wilmington, Delaware and the woman said to be Ashley is with a boyfriend.

#34  Maybe Daddy's little girl intended to get caught. In social worker psychobabble: "defiance opposition disorder." But Im no expert.

Social workers and shrinks are notorious recreational drug users (proximity to pharmaceuticals and drug users makes it so easy). If theyre not "counseling" someone on how to clean up, theyre smacking their own arm and inserting the needle, or doing drugs vicariously by talking about drugs all day long with actual druggies who they feel "superior" to. The daughter probably did use, and not only is a huge hypocrite, but maybe intended to get caught on tape. She may be a 27 year old with a third grader mentality...but shes still old enough to go to jail. Veep, dont bother running for pres knucklehead.

#33  A humble prediction: This launches her political career.

#32  Users of additive substances automatically take their usual amount. Only later will they take more if they don't get the expected effect.

Or she had prior experience with this particular bag and knew it was crap. Something tells me though, that the Veeps daughter doesn't do cheap blow.

#31  "...has she got priors?"

Yes, but those have been labled "private family matters".

Of course, if it were a Republican's kid, they would be public family matters. You can bet on it.

#30  Blow is sooooo much more upscale than CH3CH2OH, so the MSM will probably give her the equivalent of a "tut...tut" (not for abuse, mind you, but for getting CAUGHT.)...

#29  Isn't snorting against the law?
Will she be charged, will she do time, has she got priors?
Will Joe see to it that she is made an example of, to stop kids going down that path?

#28  While it is too late to put this cat back in the bag, I really think that the children of pols should be left alone. All kids make mistakes. I didn't like it when they did it the Cheney's daughter, or the Bush twins. They aren't the ones in public office.


If her Dad's administration's Sec. of State hadn't just got back from Mexico where she pushed the line that Mexico's problems were because of those meeean right-wingers in the US who won't ban guns... I might see the point in that.

I see no reason to respect the freedom of people who don't respect MY freedom. You want freedom? Fine, I want freedom too. MAYBE we can make a deal.

In the meantime, stop funding FARC, they aren't exactly shining lights of libertarian goodness.

#27  "Ashley Biden, 27, who is a social worker employed with the Delaware Department of Children, Youth and Families."

Doesn't this make you want to trust her with your kids?

#26  It's like the guy said: History repeats itself - once as bad cinema and once as the Obama Administration. The fact that "National Lampoon's Presidential Administration" has not been filmed yet does not invalidate this thesis.

#25  Let Ashley go down to Mexico and apologize for the US drug demand. She has more current credibility on the topic than the SoS.

#24  Wasn't this part of the plot of the movie Traffic, where Michael Douglas played the federal drug czar, and his teen aged daughter turned out to be an addict?

#23  Â“I had learned not to care,” he wrote. “I blew a few smoke rings, remembering those years. Pot had helped, and booze; maybe a little blow when you could afford it. Not smack, though.”

#22  This is what VP Biden said 2 weeks ago when introducing the new drug czar and commenting on the agency itself:

"And I should say -- note parenthetically, I've been a little disappointed the last eight years it hasn't gotten the attention that it should have gotten. But that's about to change."

Oh, the irony.

#20  I felt the same way about this story as i felt when the resturant owner called the cops because Jenna order a drink under age: Leave the kids out of it. Unless they are in the public spotlight (ie Ron Reagan Jr) or they are arrested for a REAL crime, leave them be.

#19  Biden is no more responsible for this than I am. She is 27 years old, let drugs into her life and only because he father is the VP she gets in the news. Otherwise she would be just another coke whore no one cares about. Just maybe she will get into rehab and straight from all this and not wind up some group pass around.

I have always said to leave the family out of it. We bitch about the handling of Panen's kids, lets hope they leave her alon.

#18  All kids make mistakes ... she's 27

If it turns out to be her, I smell a book deal. All she has to do is write about how she's confused, trying to 'find' herself, blah, blah, blah. All will be forgiven.

Worked for B. Hussein.

#17  Or it's cheap-ass, stepped-on coke that wouldn't get a fly high.

You wouldn't know that until some time after snorting it.

Users of additive substances automatically take their usual amount. Only later will they take more if they don't get the expected effect.

#16  Yes, Ms. Clinton, liberal Americans do have an appetite for illegal drugs coming from Mexico.

#15  If it actually shows up on the MSM, well...knock me over with a feather. They will find some reason that this is not newsworthy.

But if Palin's kids jaywalk, or Jindal's kid spits out his/her gum, it will make page one.

#14  I guess this is the type of American who Hildabeast was blaming for the Mexican drug war?

#13  Sorry 'bout dat' ... it should read the annointed one. Mea Culpa!!
Posted by: WolfDog   2009-03-29 09:48  

#12  If indeed this video shows Biden's daughter, let's see how the MSM deals with it. I'm guessing it will be buried in a firestorm of ... "it isn't important, and besides, it is merely an attempt to taint the adminstration of the annoited one". Just sayin', ya' know.

Sorry, at 27 she is an adult and should fucking know better. Especially as the daughter of the FUCKING VICE-PRESIDENT!! The apples don't fall far from the tree and she is just as morally corrupt as her daddy and needs to be thrown in jail with the rest of 'em.

Or it's cheap-ass, stepped-on coke that wouldn't get a fly high.

#6  And besides, everyone remembers that Palin's daughter's boyfriend's mother was in some sort of drug thing. So that makes this piece disgusting muck-raking by disgruntled neo-cons.

Neo-cons is sooo outdated. What are we, these days?

She's 27. Who among us wants to cast the first stone?
