Republicans spent $1,946 at strip club

WASHINGTON – Listed in a monthly financial report, the amount for a night of debauchery is itemized as expenses for meals at Voyeur West Hollywood. RNC spokesman Doug Heye said Monday the committee doesn't know the details of how the money was spent, all who may have attended or the nature of the outing, except to say it was an unauthorized event and that the expenditure was inappropriate. 

The RNC will be reimbursed by Erik Brown of Orange, Calif., the donor-vendor who billed the committee for the club visit, Heye said.

Since November, the RNC has paid Brown's company, Dynamic Marketing Inc., about $19,000 for printing and direct-mail services, campaign spending reports show. He has contributed several thousand dollars to the party. How convenient. 

Absolutely priceless. Can you say "family values"?

The most recent financial disclosure report said the RNC spent more than:

• $17,000 for private planes in February
• $13,000 for car services
• $144,549 for rooms at the Four Seasons Resort in Jackson Hole, Wyo., in 2009
• March 19, 2009, it spent $31,980 for catering by the Breakers Palm Beach in Florida
• $18,361 over the past several months to the "Tiny Jewel Box" in Washington for "office supplies"
• $13,622 at Dylan's Candy Bar  - an actual confectionary store
• RNC Chairman, Michael Steele spent more than $18,000 to redecorate his office
