The Democratic National Committee is having a field day Monday at the expense of its cross-town rivals at the RNC--or the "Risque National Committee," as the Dems put it in one of the blizzard of e-mailed releases they are sending out.
The Daily Caller says the FEC filings "suggest" that "Steele travels in style." From there it wasn't much of a leap for the DNC to send out emails stating that "Yes, it appears that Michael Steele spent RNC money" at the nightclub.
SNIP
It contains a payment to Erik Brown, at an address in Orange, California, who was reimbursed for the $1,946.25.
Brown is a Republican direct mail consultant (his business address is the one on the FEC report). He did not immediately respond to a telephone call from The Baltimore Sun.
Doug Heye, the RNC's chief spokesman, has issued the following statement:
“We are investigating the expenditure in question. The story willfully and erroneously suggests that the expenditure in question was one belonging to the Chairman. This was a reimbursement made to a non-committee staffer. The Chairman was never at the location in question, he had no knowledge of the expenditure, nor does he find the use of committee funds at such a location at all acceptable. Good reporting would make that distinction crystal clear. The committee has requested that the monies be returned to the committee and that the story be corrected so that it is accurate.â€
The RNC said the Daily Caller story was "riddled with misleading information and inaccuracies."

Whaddya know, the screaming liberal Sun gets something right.
With enemies like this who needs friends?
this is so obvious,
the left have tries to change the headlines all week,
1. walk through protesters and if nothing happens then make stories up
2. have obama go out overseas to visit troops(so he does not have to attend church on Palm Sunday)
3.
talk about how the RNC spent it’s money
4.attack companies who talk about health care and bring them to congress
KEEP THIS ON HEALTH CARE AND DO NOT FALL FOR THEIR TACTICS
Now I know why the Republican Party is the “Stupid Party”.
Steele should resign...like now!
I know what meme I’m going to see from liberals on Facebook tonight.
Barney “Hot Dog” Frank ran Gay hookers out of his house.
Where is the outrage from the RATS?
Its like having a political suicide bomber in the chairmanship.
Who cares, for the left this is called sex education for kindergartners.
Boy conservatives have no trouble believing the left and turning on our own.
exactly. The left will do it on a daily basis come October and November.
AMEN
Barney “Hot Dog” Frank ran Gay hookers out of his house.
Where is the outrage from the RATS?
If it were true, shouldn’t liberals see it as a welcome sign that the GOP is becoming more diverse?
Troy, haven’t you realized yet that sexual scandals only matter if Republicans are involved?
Boy conservatives have no trouble believing the left and turning on our own.
Conservatives have standards and morals.....conservatives do not spend official funds at sex clubs.
Liberal RINOs give the Left media all the ammo to slam the conservatives. Any excuse to keep Steele after this.....is just being Liberal RINO
“Boy conservatives have no trouble believing the left and turning on our own.”
*****
Turning on our own? Hardly. What dumb@ss approved payment for this at the RNC? The lipstick lesbo bdsm club’s name alone would disqualify it from having a check issued. Steele should go and take the rest of the RINO RNC incompetents with him.
No kidding...post #4 describes the pattern. People here should realize that this is war. The whole Chicago-style machine isn’t going to play nice or fair.
So let’s continue to build bigger Democrat majorities in the House and Senate because of “standards”.
