Liz Smith gossip: Repubs shut Kitty Kelley out of charity event
Liz Smith, New York Post:
(NOTE: Even though her column appears in the NY Post, Liz is neither a Republican nor a conservative.)


"Deprived Democrat"

WASHINGTON'S controversial "K Street Project" — an effort by Re publicans to cleanse Democrats from law firms and lobby offices has now moved into the world of the arts. This week, author Kitty Kelley — whose last book was a rapier chronicle about the Bush family — learned she had been ousted from the cast of the Arena Stage's annual charity benefit-revue. The event, in its 13th year, and directed by Nick Olcott, is this year in honor of Sen. Ted Stevens and the late Congressman Robert Matsui. It was said that no Republican would participate in "Capitol Crusades" if Kitty was a member of the troupe this year.

Uh, guys, charity is not partisan....

1. they are forgetting that first rule of conniving.
"keep your friends close and your enemies closer."

oopsie. they'd do better to keep us in sight.

once all the upper level dems get this kind of hint and we go off in our corner to scheme, the anti-christians better watch out.

2. That is SO disturbed.
And the idea of that "K Street Project" is not only unconscionable, but appears to me to be unethical per most states' codes as well.

Of course, they probably are not open about it.

I knew that Kelley would pay for discussing the Emperor's (the Boy King's) family "doin's." She's very courageous.

Protection, courage and blessings to her.

3. Good Lord, they are a blood-thirsty bunch of
cretins aren't they?

Now it's gotten to the point, that if you criticize Chimpy or his equally distateful family, you're not going to be allowed to raise money for a charity.

Gee I wonder, if the donors have to sign loyalty oaths, as well....

Those are real good Christian values, aren't they!!!

5. Unfortunately, this is how they keep control. Bully tactics and
ostracizing. Even if invited, she would be shunned.

very happy about this development and rightfully so.
