What was Guckert aka Gannon doing at Delay Tribute?
Repugs chomp with a male PROSTITUTE and yet the have the nerve to say the Democrats have no class?

DeLay Tribute:
In short, last night's tribute dinner to Leader DeLay was well done and seemed to serve its purpose.

The highlight of the night, from The Note's perspective, was the story of Ena Feinberg of Boston, who described how DeLay and his wife Christine adopted her Russian "refusenik" family and worked tirelessly in the mid 1980s to convince the Russian government to secure exit visas for them.

DeLay's quip upon taking the microphone: "I love Ina Feinberg dearly, but now she's given the press another trip to write about."

(There were no golf courses in Moscow during that time, DeLay Noted.)

Celebrity sightings include Bud Paxon and Susan Molinari; Frank Gaffney and James Guckert, heads together in a serious conversation; RNC chairman Ken Mehlman looking slightly uncomfortable as Morton Blackwell repeatedly called Nancy Pelosi a "San Francisco socialist"; Phyllis Schlafly telling DeLay he should be glad he wasn't Ann Coulter; Bob Novak looking slim and healthy; and Roy Blunt, being sufficiently self-deprecating.

The protests outside were lackluster. The attendees inside — a bit more than 900 of them — gave DeLay three standing ovations. We would describe the crowd as enthusiastic but sober.
