House Speaker Nancy Pelosis office is being coy about who paid for a party Wednesday that celebrated the accomplishments of the 111th Congress.
The event, according to an invitation obtained by POLITICO, was in the Cannon Caucus Room Wednesday afternoon. It was closed press, and invited guests were advocacy groups.
When asked who paid for it, Nadeam Elshami, a spokesman for the California Democrat, declined to reveal who was footing the bill.
No taxpayer funds or lobbyist money paid for the meeting, Elshami said in an email to POLITICO.
When pressed further, Elshami said No taxpayer or lobbyist. What more do you want?

Well, Nadeam, that’s pretty transparent. Thanks a lot.
And don’t let the door hit you in the keyster on the way OUT of the speaker’s office.

Can you imagine a game of “Pin the Tail on the Donkey/Jackass” in that room? It would be mass confusion, with many a sore tail.

No taxpayer funds or lobbyist money paid for the meeting, Probably a lie, as usual and customary. Nothing about or from "Red" Nancy is factual or truthful. Never has been...never will be.

Was it a Botox party similar to a Tupperware party?

Better question would be: Who showed up at the party?
We need Breitbart Big Government for undercover photos, etc.

When pressed further, Elshami said No taxpayer or lobbyist. What more do you want? How about union or media money? I'd say corporate as well, but they only give money to the GOP, right Elshami?
In reality, I don't give a damn about this party or who paid for it as long as I didn't. But the Pelosi is and was a sanctimonious bitch when it comes to "unaccounted for" donors in ad campaigns. So I find it quite fair to ask where this in-kind contribution came from.

No taxpayer funds or lobbyist money paid for the meeting, We had the Treasury borrow a couple of million from the Chinese just for this, so it wasn't taxpayer money.

My thinking: they had a game of piñata... clubbing en effigy of Nancy's stretched face... when it broke open a bunch of phony ear marks fell out.
Party's over... a bunch of sour, bitter democraps licking their wounds heading back to their soon-to-vanish majority party office spaces.
