Political Chicks a Go Go: A Rock the Vote/Lifetime Jammy Jam
Last night, Michael and I attended our first RNC party. Oh, wait! Not party. I mean hurricane relief fundraiser. And, let me tell you, it was a pretty wild hurricane relief fundraiser.
It was co-hosted Rock the Vote and the Lifetime Channel, with the joint purposes of raising money for the victims of Hurricane Gustav and highlighting the contributions that women have made to the political arena.
So, of course, there were big-breasted women in hot pants dancing around poles. (Because that kind of is what they've contributed to Republican politics.)
She's very concerned about emboldening foreign dictators by tacitly acknowledging their equality while speaking to them through means of diplomacy and negotiations.
And these ladies are all about putting money back into the hands of consumers to help stimulate an ownership society.
Can you find the liberal in this picture? (No, you can't. He's behind the camera.)
Country singer John Rich took the stage and played his kickass song, "Raisin' McCain," which was both kickass and ass-kicking good.
And, of course, he had his midget.
Carter Chord — a band made up of three sisters (and a whole bunch of session players) followed, and I was really surprised by how much I didn't not like them. In fact, I didn't not like them a whole lot. I really didn't not enjoy myself during their set.
Admittedly, the keyboardist sister was in no small way responsible for that.
Now here's a person I'd unilaterally invade a foreign country for, if you know what I'm saying. I'm talking no exit strategy at all.
After Megan McCain was set to come onstage with her Blogettes to do whatever Megan McCain and Blogettes do. But that's right when we were invited by one of the go-go dancers to enter the VIP room.
This is the VIP room. I'm not certain, but I think the name of that room might have been a bit misleading.
This is Alexis. She's a Minneapolis native, radio personality and PR guru on a women's station, which apparently exists here in Minneapolis. Which is pretty cool. Alexis was pretty cool. We liked Alexis.
We also really liked Scott a genuine Young Republican who loves Comedy Central and hates having his picture taken. When I asked him if he was a fan of The Daily Show, he deadpanned, "No. I don't like that."
I have a feeling that these women might have been VIPs, because people kept taking their pictures with them. But I have no idea who they are. Still, I'm honored to have kind of shared a room with them.

Too bad you only focused on the "hired" dancers and didn't spend some time talking to the true "political chicks" who were there. It's amazing how with your biased views you can create whatever images you want. Nothing new there.
um, he's using the fact that there were hired pole dancers there to point out how facetious the Republican party's idea of women's empowerment is. it's called satire. get over yourself.
The party of conservatives, the party of the right wing religious zealots that support Focus on the Family…..hired pole dancers. NO WONDER THEIR "JUST SAY NO TO SEX' CAMPAIGNS ARE A MISERABLE FAILURE.
I AM THE LAWWWWW!!!!!
Both republicans and DEMOCRATS partake in these types of parties. The only reason any cares is because it happened to be during Hurricane Gustav. Get off their backs and worry about something more important!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That looked like some kind of satan worshipping orgy.
Yippee, more Bristol Palin pics !
What a crock! If shw was a pole dancer, why don't we see here doing something like a pole dancer in the viedo? She looks more like just some lady moving to the music to me. You guys sure don't seem to good at slinging mud. I could have done better that this and not even wanting to.
