Remember yesterday when I posted how the Republican National Committee wastes your money? The money YOU give them goes for things like strip clubs, food, booze and gasoline, then the RNC tries to cover it up by claiming the money went to 'office expenses.'
Well here's the latest. Michael Steele, the RNC chairman referred to by wealthy RNC donors as "our nigger," hires a fellow by the name of Neil Alpert. Alpert's gotten in trouble before for using the PAC credit card from his last client to help pay his rent and parking expenses. That doesn't seem to cut any ice with Steele, who hires him anyway.
But maybe this will: While Alpert was chairing D.C. Baseball PAC, the group trying to bring major league baseball back to Washington, he didn't just use PAC money yo pay his rent. He ALSO used the PAC credit card to visit Washington's Dream Night Club, which is also known as Club LOVE. If you go to http://www.10best.com/Washington,DC/Nightlife/Dance_Clubs/64197/Love_Washington_DC/ you can find a review of the place, which describes it as 'luxurious.' A far cry from drinking Budweiser and eating pretzels out of a cheap Melamite bowl at the bar of the Dew Drop Inn, which is the 'nightlife' most familiar to the RNC contributors who live in trailers. It costs $60 just to get IN to 'Club LOVE.'
If you bypass the RNC and contribute DIRECTLY to candidates, more often than not you wind up giving them money for their legal defense funds.
Once again, the RNC shows itself as representing a party on the side of the Average Joe.
