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

HeadlineMar 30, 2010

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!”
