OK, OK, OK.

So the WashPo is charging for an “evening” with the WashPo editors, writers and influential Obama politicians and aides.

Aside from the fact that this MAKES (by definition!) the WashPo a lobbying organization) you've got to ask, is the money worth it? Since the WashPo is going to do nothing byut repeat the Obama POV, and push the Obama agenda, isn't it cheaper to pay the Obama rep's directly?

By the way, isn't there a law against an administration lackey ATTENDING an affair where access to administration lackies is being “sold”?

isn't there a law

In the fine print, it says that law is only enforced against non-RINO Republicans...

Ick. Sleeziest thing they have done this morning.

That's what made my jaw drop here. The WaPo is peddling influence but, let's face it, there aren't many people left in the world who still entertain the quaint notion that the DNC-allied WaPo is in any way a legitimate news organization.

But which Obama administration officials are allowing themselves to be pimped by the WaPo?

Enquiring minds want to know.

Yes. and I feel sure that Eric Holder will get right on this a prosecute Emanuel and Axelrod the max...Not.

I'm not sure why - but this is really funny in some off-beat quirky way. A journalist reading it would be wincing.
