RW throwing Steele under the bus?

RNC 'investigating' money spent at racy nightclub

<snip>

The $1,946.25 expenditure from February 4 is listed under "Meals" on the RNC's latest financial disclosure report filed with the Federal Election Commission.

The money was spent at Voyeur, a hip nightclub on Santa Monica Boulevard sometimes visited by starlets like Lindsay Lohan and Heidi Montag.

Club-goers posting on Yelp, the user-generated review Web site, describe the venue as having "voyeurism cages with men and women" and a "dark velvety feel with masked naked models." One user claimed to witness "two girls simulating oral sex in a glass case."

The surprising expenditure was first noted Monday by The Daily Caller in a story about the committee's spending habits.

Letter from Tucker

Welcome to the Daily Caller. Editors’ letters have a well-deserved reputation for undue length and self-seriousness, so in 15,000 words or less let me confirm the stereotype.

Just kidding. I’ll be (by my standards) brief. This is primarily a news site. We see our core job as straightforward: Find out what’s happening and tell you about it. We plan to be accurate, both in the facts we assert and in the conclusions we imply. If we’re not, tell us. We’ll fix it immediately.

2. So basically Tucker just grabbed his ankles for the RNC. That is what I see.
You gotta give them credit, that shit was quick. It was on par for a Limpballs demand for retraction quick.

11. I think Steele is testing the limits
And the RNC is scared shitless that he'll play the race card and brand them all as racists. I'm pretty sure he knows this, so he's going to milk it as much as he can.

4. This hints at some family problems
Do the various parts of the GOP need marriage counseling? Very interesting, to be continued I am sure.

6. Tucker Carlson is a RW panderer
He left CNN to go to Fox, because Fox was more "fair and balanced", back when he was on-screen with his bow tie.

Skim through the articles of his site and you can see the obvious slant.

Sorry, I know this isn't new information, but the dude just pisses me off. As if Fox needs any help passing a pure RW agenda as news.

9. I believe Carlson thinks he is a LIBERTARIAN (rather than a Republican)

12. Carlson is not a Repub. He claims to be a Libertarian so he has been
known to be critical of the RNC on occasion.
