GOP Spent Nearly $2,000 in Party Funds at Bondage-Themed Nightclub
------------------------------------------------------------------



In political news, the Republican National Committee is coming under
intense scrutiny after it was revealed the RNC had spent nearly $2,000
in party funds at a topless bondage-themed nightclub in West Hollywood.
The money was spent at a club called Voyeur, where scantily clad
performers are said to play out bondage and sadomasochistic scenes. The
conservative Christian group Concerned Women for America said it was
dismayed. In a statement, the group’s leader Penny Nance asked
Republicans, “Did you really swill drinks, ogle young girls and plan
party business at this kind of establishment? Please explain!”
