Washington Post Cancels Plans to Hold Costly Dinner for Lobbyists
Well of course they had to cancel it. As soon as some less than savvy dweeb let it leak out that the editor of the Washington Post was seeking to be the go between between Washington insiders and lobbyists and those on capitol hill and the Obama administration? What else could they do.
The flier called the discussion an "exclusive opportunity to participate in the health care reform debate among the select few who will actually get it done." The "few" included Obama administration officials, congressional leaders and Post reporters and editors. The fee was $25,000 per "sponsor," and $250,000 for an annual sponsorship.
Imagine that....an "exclusive opportunity." Is that what we are calling pay for play in the new world order of Obama's Washington these days?
Yes, it certainly looks like whether this clandestine little get together came off or not, there will still be efforts afoot to hook up "the few" (with the money to play) with Obama administration insiders, Washington post editors and congressional leaders. (Would that be considered a "Cabal?")
How quaint. According to these revelations, it seems to be both legal and ethical to have one of these get togethers, just as long as they do it all together and call it a dinner. Which makes me wonder about the difference between simply visiting a prostitute and attending a government sponsored orgy. Is there a difference? Obviously one activity is looked upon shady and distasteful (not to mention illegal) while the other is probably akin to attending one of Louis the XVI's and Marie's masquerade balls according to these neuvo democrat politicos inside the beltway.
I wonder what kinds of cake they intended to serve at this little dinner get together. What ever it would have been? I'll bet that it would have rivaled the best that Louis the XVI could have mustered in his day.

More remarkable stupidity.
Time for America to wake up to the in-the-tank media. Shows their real motivation even though canceled.
Still hard to believe though... that the media would give up their "freedom of the press" for a pot of porridge. That's how Esau sold his birth-right.
Someone once said...."the first thing we will do is hang all the lawyers." I disagree, I think we ned to begin with media and by the time we are finished with them, the lawyers will have fled for their lives.
Stranger than fiction. But this is reality. Out of the closet and in your face reality. There is absolutely nothing that concerns or embarrasses these people.
