Edgy comedian David Cross: Just how edgy is he? Edgy as a knife (double-edged). Sniffing coke while sitting near the President of the USA. That's what David Cross did, says David Cross.

Straight from Politico: Cross says he went to the White House Correspondents Association dinner and was sitting right up front and because he like to do crazy things to impress his friend, he did this:

"I've got photos of all this. ... I'm there and the president is right here and with all these people at the table" Cross snorted some coke, he said. "Maybe 40 feet from the president of the United States!"

Pics or it didn't happen, David Cross. This is the edgiest thing to happen at the White House Correspondents Association dinner since Steven Colbert devastatingly spoke truth to power, simultaneously bruising the egos of the White House lapdog press corps and making Bush squirm through a sparkling recounting of his tragic flaws. This is a close second.

UPDATE: The friend he was trying to impress was Gavin McInnes, formerly of Vice. Of course.
