Republican Party

Oh Noes! Democrats Booked Hotel Rooms!

Via John Cole, the Republicans are calling out the DNC for, you know, booking hotel rooms.

The DNC spent at least $2,204,000 for luxury hotels & caterers, Including:

The DNC has spent at least $423,000 at Mandarin Oriental Hotels. (Federal Elections Commission, www.fec.gov, accessed: 3/31/10)

The DNC spent at least $530,000 at Hilton Hotels. (Federal Elections Commission, www.fec.gov, accessed: 3/31/10)

The DNC spent at least $7,000 at the Fontainebleau in Miami Beach. (Federal Elections Commission, www.fec.gov, accessed: 3/31/10)

POW! Take that, Defeatocrats!

Wait.

This is the RNC's counterpunch? Really? To repeat, the reason the RNC's bondage spending was so ridiculous was because the Republicans hold themselves up as the family values party -- AND they bitch about frivolous spending a lot. And see, the bondage party was both frivolous spending and hypocritical. The last I checked my DNC talking points, there wasn't anything in there about demonizing the evils of luxury hotels.

Sorry, Republicans. You're pathetic.
