He can't be guilty - he's not a Republican. Laughing

Al Gore interviewed by Portland detectives

By KATU Staff
Updated: Jul 27, 2010


PORTLAND, Ore. -- Detectives interviewed former U.S. Vice President Al Gore this past week in San Francisco, a law enforcement source has confirmed to KATU News.

Portland police detectives interviewed Gore on Thursday, questioning him further about allegations that he sexually abused a licensed a massage therapist.

Investigators had filed a special report in January 2007, recording the massage therapist's claims that Gore grabbed and groped her when she gave him a massage at a Portland hotel in October 2006. The woman went public in a June 23 National Enquirer story and held up "soiled" pants for a June 30 Enquirer cover.

On July 1, the Portland Police Bureau reopened its sexual assault investigation into the former vice president. Officials said the extra review was needed as detectives looking into the matter this past year failed to notify high-ranking officials of the decision to drop the case.

The Enquirer has published the stories of two other massage therapists. Those therapists, who worked at hotels in Tokyo and Los Angeles, have also claimed Gore made unwanted sexual advances toward them.

No matter how much I want Gore to be exposed as a big perv, this smacks of opportunism by the lady in question.

You mean the ladies in question.

Maybe he has a fetish involving masseuses. Maybe he should go to one of these nearby countries where you must specify "no sex" to the masseuse if you don't want it. Wink

The source for the article is the national enquirer. Not much to go on.

^You think KATU News reported an Enquirer story without checking it first?

Anyway, The Enquirer only was the source of the other two masseuses' stories.

They've broken quite a bit of stuff lately that the media was reluctant to touch on, even after there was evidence that it was true.

John Edwards...Michael Jackson...Rush Limbaugh....Tiger Woods...

They've done a pretty sharp turn-around and have beaten the "real" journalists to the punch on an embarrassing number of occasions.

I say take their stories with a grain of salt...but take the time to verify.

I know, I was just giving Bacasper a bit of a hard time. They do report some of the craziest stuff, always fun to look at in those couple of minutes in line at a grocery store.

I just found out that Obama is an escaped Area 51 alien, and that's why he didn't produce his long-form.

True story.

I'll keep that in mind. And I have a long memory.

LOL @ itaewonguy

I think when a guy goes into a massage expecting a happy ending, he should get what he's paying for. Poor Al can't pick good value...

Charges have been dropped due to a lack of evidence.

A true VICE President. Laughing

How sad and pathetic Al Gore is compared to Bill Clinton: he can't even make an interesting sex scandal.
