VP Biden's Daughter Reportedly Captured on Camera Doing Cocaine

NY Post: A "friend" of Vice President Joseph Biden's daughter, Ashley, is attempting to hawk a videotape that he claims shows her snorting cocaine at a house party this month in Delaware.

The anonymous male acquaintance of Ashley took the video, said Thomas Dunlap, a lawyer representing the seller.

Dunlap and a man claiming to be a lawyer showed The Post about 90 seconds of a 43-minute tape, saying it was legally obtained and that Ashley was aware she was being filmed. The Post refused to pay for the video.

The video, which the shooter initially hoped to sell for $2 million before scaling back his price to $400,000, shows a 20-something woman with light skin and long brown hair taking a red straw from her mouth, bending over a desk, inserting the straw into her nostril and snorting lines of white powder.

She then stands up and begins talking with other people in the room. A young man looks on from behind her, facing the camera. The lawyers said he was Ashley's boyfriend of a few years.

The camera follows the woman from a few feet away, focusing on her as she moves around the room. It appears not to be concealed. At one point she shouts, "Shut the f- - - up!"

The woman appears to resemble Ashley Biden, 27, a social worker for a Delaware child-welfare agency and a visible presence during her father's campaign for the White House.

The dialogue is difficult to discern, but the woman makes repeated references to the drugs, said the lawyers, who said they viewed the tape about 15 times.

"At one point she pretty much complains that the line isn't big enough," said the second lawyer, who declined to identify himself. "And she talks about her dad."

Biden has been an outspoken crusader against drugs, coining the term "drug czar" in 1982 while campaigning for a more forceful "war on drugs."

The lawyers declined to name the person who shot the video, but said he knew Ashley well and had attended other parties with her at which there were illegal drugs.

The lawyers said the shooter used a camera with a hard-disc drive that he later destroyed, drilling into the device and tossing it into a lake.

Very sad…but lets see if the media sends out the lynch mob for the Biden family the way they did to Sarah Palin.

Oh, Katie. Shut up. All this between dems and republicans. Hold yourself to one standard. Either its right to go after the family or it isn’t. If the media DOES go after her, you’ll be happy, which makes you a hypocrite. If they leave her alone, you’ll be UNhappy, and still a hypocrite.

Hey Anonymous YOU SHUT UP! Believe or not everyone has a right to an opinion not just liberal democrats. Sorry but I do believe the families of Dems should be held to the same standard as Rep. You are the Hypocrite! you want you’re say but refuse to allow anyone else to voice an opinion. Grow up not everyone thinks like you!

Other than Newsday, the NYPost, and Fox News, the MSM is not touching this. Yet they brualized an almost ten year younger Bristol Palin over an activity that was stupid but not illegal. AB is a state employee and I am sure there is a policy for drug use by someone entrusted with the well-being of the public.

How disgusting that the press attacks only those they are rooting against. It is not a dem or repub thing. If this were a Clinton problem, we would be hearing about it as breaking news.

Katie & Anonymous (the 2nd one) -
where has VP Biden exploited his daughter’s alledge drug problem? Sarah Palin had her pregnant, high school age, daughter on the campaign trail AND at the convention, and on the podium with the boy that knocked her up. SHe herself milked it for “family values”.
Furthermore, the responsiblilty of a parent to their teenagers, living in their parents’ home is much different than a parent with a grown a$$ women living on her own.
If Ashley Biden, did snort coke - is’t WRONG, WRONG, WRONG.
But since we haven’t seen the allegde evidence (and maybe the other media outlets have and decided the video was not conclusive, too grainy etc.)of Ashley Biden’s coke snorting, let’s not rush to judgement. Afterall, the anit-Dems Fox news hasn’t paid $400,000 for the video. Maybe because this way they can report that a video exsist without actually confirming it’s authencitity because it isn’t?
I didn’t believe Bristol Palin ( I thought it was more smear campaigning)was preggers until Sara Palin’s campaign confirmed it.

Wah!

Katie-
I question the thinking of someone like you. First, who would support Sara Palin for VP- in line to the Presidency (if McCain had died)in these dire times?

Katie March 30, 2009, 5:05 PM

You question my thinking in holding both dems or repubs to the same standard? I said nothing about supporting Palin as president only that her family was judged harshly and criticised throughout the whole campaign then I wondered if the Biden family would be put under the same media scrutiny.. My thinking was precisely that. Both parties should recieve the same teatment from the mainstream media. Read my comment then make a comment on what I actually wrote.
