RNC cultivating young donors during after-party at Voyeur West Hollywood

Lots of ex-pats from the days of the Shaw being ousted. A couple years ago I had one (well, the kid of one) as an intern. We had some very interesting conversations, and I was surprised by his views about “bombing” Iran (he was for it!).

You have to pay extra for that.

There are no backdoor reparations in the champagne room.

DC has an interesting follow up on this:

Apparently the guy says he charged it to his RNC charge card because his personal one had been rejected. He has been fired for it, but there’s still some questions raised on how the expenditure was approved. This may be more then another freakout over a non-story, but it’s more with how the RNC handles expenses then some overpriced Wachowski-brothers themed bar in LA.

Oh I get that there’s a big Iranian population there, but why on earth would they not let them in?

Hmm. Maybe some of these misconceptions and stereotypes have something to do with it?

RNC Chief of Staff Ken McKay has just resigned because of all this.

Steele will wind up going down too, mark my words.

That’d be a shame. He’s been a great source of amusement.

Ever wonder what a Young Eagle looks like?


The guy on the right is 29.

Money can’t buy you everything, it appears.

He has a Twitter feed too: http://twitter.com/jrpenniv
