Bickering Scaifes Speak For First Time On Their Messy Divorce
Edited on Wed Jan-02-08 09:01 PM by RamboLiberal
-----

Ritchie Scaife sics a private investigator on her husband, and discovers he is going to a cheap hotel with 43-year-old Tammy Vasco. Enraged Ritchie Scaife tries twice to confront the two at his mansion, only to be arrested for deliberate trespass -- and tossed in jail where fellow prisoners pass the time petting her fur collar.

Richard Scaife ruefully admits bringing marijuana to his son in prep school. Ritchie is portrayed, and vehemently denies, as being a woman interested only in the Mellon name and fortune, once threatening to plunge into the ocean because she did not like the winter slip covers at a summer place.

An in-law is quoted as saying she would stick pins in pictures of Richard Scaife.

"Ritchie denies every detail of this story," Gross wrote. "There was an altercation, she admits, but she says it was Sara who 'went berserk.'

1. A propos how could Clinton stoop so low as to have lunch
with Richard Mellon Scaife after the way Scaife caused enduring damage to his reputation and sorrow to Clinton's wife and family. This is shocking to me. Does Clinton have no memory of how he, his family and the whole country suffered at the false indignation of Richard Mellon Scaife. If only Moliere were alive today to write a screenplay about Richard Mellon Scaife. He could call it Scartuffe.

He also recounts have a "very pleasant" lunch last summer with Bill Clinton, whom he calls the most charismatic man he's met in his life.

2. oh good grief, more exaggeration
who gives a fuck who Bill Clinton has lunch with... perhaps he was manipulating him to lay off his wife. It's called politics...

3. It's not just politics. Clinton should have more respect for
Hillary than to have lunch with a man who loudly embarrassed the whole Clinton family. Scaife pursued Clinton until he got something on Clinton just to embarrass the Clintons. I am a forgiving person, but that is personal and unforgivable.
