Bad, bad and more bad when it comes to the news this week for that esteemed inventor of the Internet, Al Gore. As ABC News reports today: "Portland, Oregon police have decided to reopen the investigation into a 54-year-old masseuse's allegations that former Vice President Al Gore sexually assaulted her in his hotel room in 2006" (I guess the MSM's "He Wasn't Charged" defense is out the window for the time being). And all of this comes after the National Enquirer hit newsstands this week with an interview they purchased from Gore's accuser, who has now gone public with her identity -- Molly Hagerty.Now, if you thought some of those "crazed sex poodle" allegations she told the cops were bad, the lady is really ratcheting up the ol' rhethoric in her Enquirer interview: "Al Gore is a pervert and a sexual predator. He's not what people think he is - he's a sick man. I want justice served." Ouch-a-rama.
Hagerty also continues to claim that she kept pants from the alleged incident that have stains of Gore's "DNA," for lack of a more radio-friendly term. She's also claiming there is another witness, plus a hotel video surveillance tape, that will help to corroborate her story.
Also new today: Gore somewhat breaks the silence he's maintained since this story broke a week or so ago. Through a spokesperson, Gore says that he "unequivocally and emphatically denies this accusation." And in true politician spin mode, the spokesperson also claims that "further investigation into this matter will only benefit Mr. Gore." Right! The reopening of the police investigation is just want Big Al wanted all along! Please.
