Sex complaint against Gore is detailed, credible

[WestVirginiaRebel]

Washington Examiner:

The allegation that Al Gore sexually assaulted a woman in a Portland, Ore., hotel room nearly four years ago has dealt a serious blow to the former vice president's story that he and wife Tipper simply "grew apart" after 40 years of marriage.

The police report of the masseuse's complaint is 73 pages long and extremely detailed. According to the document, she got a call from the front desk of the trendy Hotel Lucia on the night of Oct. 24, 2006. The hotel had a special guest. Could she come at 10:30 p.m.?

She went to Gore's room carrying a folding massage table and other equipment. Gore, whom she had never met, greeted her with a warm embrace. "The hug went on a bit long, and I was taken just a bit aback by it," the masseuse told police. But she went along because Gore "was a VIP and a powerful individual and the Hotel Lucia had made it clear to me by inference that they were giving him 'the royal treatment.'"

Gore said he was tired from travel and described in detail the massage he wanted. It included work on the adductor muscles, which are on the inside of the thighs. "I mentally noted that a request for adductor work is a bit unusual," the masseuse told police, because it can be "a precursor to inappropriate behavior by a male client."

Gore also requested work on his abdomen. When that began, "He became somewhat vocal with muffled moans, etc.," the masseuse recounted. Gore then "demand[ed] that I go lower." When she remained focused on a "safe, nonsexual" area, Gore grew "angry, becoming verbally sharp and loud."

The masseuse asked Gore what he wanted. "He grabbed my right hand, shoved it down under the sheet to his pubic hair area, my fingers brushing against his penis," she recalled, "and said to me, 'There!' in a very sharp, loud, angry-sounding tone." When she pulled back, Gore "angrily raged" and "bellowed" at her.

Then, abruptly, the former vice president changed tone. It was "as though he had very suddenly switched personalities," she recalled, "and began in a pleading tone, pleading for release of his second chakra there."

"Chakra," in Gore's new-agey jargon, refers to the body's "energy centers," which the masseuse interpreted as having a specific meaning. "This was yet another euphemism for sexual activity he was requesting," she told police, "put cleverly as though it were a spiritual request or something."

She wanted to end the session, but Gore "wrapped me in an inescapable embrace" and "caressed my back and buttocks and breasts." She tried to get away -- in the process calling Gore a "crazed sex poodle" -- but the former vice president was too strong for her.

A little later, she said, Gore produced a bottle of brandy and mentioned there were condoms in the "treat box" provided by the hotel. "He then forced an open mouth kiss on me," she said.

At that moment, the masseuse brought up Gore's long marriage. "How do you rectify this with your wife?" she asked. That brought on another "quick shift" in Gore's mood. "I never saw anybody's moods just go like this," the masseuse told police, snapping her fingers.

The accuser said Gore maneuvered her into the bedroom. His iPod docking station was there, he told her, and he wanted her to listen to "Dear Mr. President," a lachrymose attack on George W. Bush by the singer Pink.

"As soon as he had it playing, he turned to me and immediately flipped me flat on my back and threw his whole body face down over atop of me," she said. "I was just shocked at his craziness."

"He pleaded, grabbed me, engulfed me in embrace, tongue kissed me, massaged me, groped by breasts and painfully squeezed my nipples through my clothing, pressed his pelvis against mine, rubbed my buttocks with his hands and fingers and rubbed himself against my crotch, saying, 'You know you want to do it.'"

Finally she got away. Later, she talked to friends, liberals like herself, who advised against telling police. One asked her "to just suck it up; otherwise, the world's going to be destroyed from global warming."

She got a lawyer and made an appointment to talk with authorities. She canceled and did not tell police until January 2009 and even then did not press charges.

In 2007, a Portland paper learned what had happened. Gore's lawyers called the story "absolutely false," and it wasn't published.

Now the National Enquirer has made the police report public. And Gore's family-man image will never be the same.

When you have an ego as big as his, you think you can get away with anything. Plus, Glenn Reynolds says, "Anybody else notice that this came out right after Gore started criticizing the White House over the oil spill?"

I don't get it...ok this is one of the many many many many things I don't get, Al is married to a woman who is (how shall I put this without getting into trouble)...not unpleasant, one might call her a hottie, if you are of a certain age. And he can't keep his pants zipped up?

 

At some point someone should have told him..."Al baby...listen to me, you are rich and famous, keep it zipped! or it'll get you in trouble!"

I might remind you of Tiger Woods.....if anyone ever married a hottie, he did.

 

But, that aside, who knows how long Tipper has been turned off by Albore. He has almost no personality and an ego bigger than Texas. Add to that, as the facade of AGW is slowly peeling away, I'm sure the money is too.

 

Have you noticed that no one asks him to campaign for them?

Some people are verbal "I vomit" and others are visual that's the way the world works.

[Argyle58]

I apologize if this was too offensive. I actually wouldn't have posted it had I known Rheo was posting her "verbal vomit" at the same time I was posting the pic. Came off as crass, instead of the earthy humorous effect I had intended.

I laugh!

Question: has anyone considered the possibility that Al might be innocent?

She claims to have the pants that might contain a sample of Albore's (ahem) genetic material. That would be hard to fake, if true.

My daughter is a licensed massage therapist. I read through the statement and it all sounded legit to me in terms of what she was describing as her process of treating clients.

 

The Gore's divorce and a report I read of their movements to shield their assets give the accusation more weight, imo.

 

Plus you add in his anger at 2000, and his amazement at what Clinton got/gets away with, I doubt very much that he is innocent.

 

The fact that Tipper is a nice looking lady doesn't necessarily have anything to do with the kind or depth of marital relationship that she and Algore currently have.

Not trying to defend the guy...just asking the question that occurred to me today while I was pretending to work.

[pinz]

I think I'd rather work than think about Algore.

Valin... a latent Gorebot? Who'da thunk it?

[Pepper]

Valin, I haven't jumped on the bash Gore bandwagon for this issue too much either. Although you have to admit, he's a good SOB to bash.

 

The big question is, why did she wait so long for this story?

 

AlGore's got other problems that go beyond him standing around in a robe in a hotel room rubbing and groping a masseuse.

 

There must be a mental disorder category for what Gore is going through. The very idea that he could have been President is about as abhorrent as the amoral defective we have now as pResident.

Yup. And I also have to ask myself why this is newsworthy at all—why did this come out now?

 

Frankly, innocence would come as welcome news. While I don't agree with Al's politics AT ALL, and I thought the big kiss at the convention was embarrassing and inappropriate—the Gores did seem to have a decent marriage and there aren't enough of those left in this world. I'd like to think that good marriages transcend politics and that politics/celebrity and good marriages aren't mutually exclusive.

 

I am a bit skeptical though—even if this isn't for real.
