Mr. Paul Anka... Dragged Into Hillary! Fund-Raiser ScandalThe New York Times coverage from today is a bit more sympathetic, but it appears that the worst consequences for Hillary are likely to be avoided – the prosecutor, Peter R. Zeidenberg, said “that the fund-raiser, David F. Rosen, tried to keep Mrs. Clinton’s campaign from discovering how much money was donated to cover the costs of the star-studded event at the heart of this criminal case.” The prosecutor told the jury, “You will hear no evidence that Hillary Clinton was involved in any way, shape or form.” But... our hero is tainted by the scandal: Finally, the details of the fundraiser that Rosen organized — $5,000 for Patti LaBelle's hairdresser, $10,000 for Paul Anka CD's that were to go in gift bags, Cher’s request of a particular model private plane — reveal the ostentatious and lavish atmosphere of Democratic campaign fundraising in Hollywood. It’s not a scandal in and of itself – well, it’s nothing new, at least – but it’s not the side of the Democratic Party that Hillary or any other lawmaker in the party wants to spotlight. At least Hillary! knows who slices like an f'n' hammer. Thanks to NickS. posted by Ace at 03:23 PM
CommentsI had a good laugh when I read that this morning. I wonder how the Man of Substance feels about it? On second thought, given the usual drivel that celebrities spew regarding politics, perhaps I don't want to know. Posted by: brak on May 12, 2005 03:27 PM
My question is, if Hillary! and Paul Anka were on the stage at the same time, who would be the most important person? Posted by: Jason on May 12, 2005 03:32 PM
Talk about your matter-anti-mater collisions Posted by: Iblis on May 12, 2005 03:34 PM
My question is, if Hillary! and Paul Anka were on the stage at the same time, who would be the most important person? Uh...Paul Anka. Moron. Posted by: Bob on May 12, 2005 03:36 PM
Iblis, if you weren't just making a typo, that's one of the lowest puns I've ever seen. You have my gratitude, sir. Posted by: utron on May 12, 2005 03:39 PM
Well, yes, I would go with Paul Anka, of course. Perhaps I should have said "self-important." Posted by: Jason on May 12, 2005 03:39 PM
sorry to be a dumbass, but i've come to the point where i need to ask: what's the deal with this 'slicin like a hammer' thing? i try to keep up, i really do, but i swear once you miss one of these inside jokes you're outside for a long while (ace can be awfully repetitive). same thing with the 'like a viking'. i think that one is from before i came to the site. again, sorry for the stupid questions. it's just at some point, you've gotta stop nodding your head and smiling and try and actually figure out what the hell's going on. you know how it is Posted by: ramms on May 12, 2005 04:05 PM
Doesn't $10,000 sound like an awful lot of money for Paul Anka CDs? I mean, did every gift bag contain a hundred of them? Posted by: lyle on May 12, 2005 04:06 PM
Ramms: http://ace-o-spades.blogspot.com/2004_03_28_ace-o-spades_archive.html#108054483116614928 Posted by: Greg on May 12, 2005 04:07 PM
Uh..yeah I meant to do that. Yeah. Posted by: Iblis on May 12, 2005 04:13 PM
At least Hillary! knows who slices like an f'n' hammer. I don't know. The article seems to say that Hill did not know anything about these particular expenses, so I don't think that you can enter the Anka CDs as evidence that Hill know squat about slicing like a hammer. Regarding an Anka/Hill battle of who's the only important one on stage, Anka wins without a doubt. OTOH, an Anka/Bill battle would be very interesting to watch. Posted by: vonKreedon on May 12, 2005 04:24 PM
greg, lots to go through there so i'm still looking, but i am happy to announce that i now understand the "the guys get shirts" thing! Posted by: ramms on May 12, 2005 04:26 PM
Oh, and man talk about laying it out for overblown mediocrities; Patti LaBelle? Cher's particular private plane? How did Carly Simon or Kenny G miss out on this? Posted by: vonKreedon on May 12, 2005 04:26 PM
O.T. but now I'm seeing beefcake and, although the half naked guy has a really nice butt, I don't like it! Ace has replaced the Dusty adverts with this?! And what in hell does this narcissistic guy's back and butt have to do with Terrorism, Immigration, China poicy, Defense . . .? Is the blogger behind The Point trying to draw some women to his site? Well pal, I have good information that says women want a man who will ask them what their secret is, not some guy with a really nice tushie (although I'm sure that wouldn't make matters worse). I'll bet there are some guys who would like to slice that like a f'n hammer! (had to be said) And Iblis , that is an excellent typo. Some of the best inventions are by accident. Must be good karma! Posted by: compos mentis on May 12, 2005 04:35 PM
I read somewhere that Cher received a new procedure called "The Knob", where a small knob is placed on the back of a woman's head and can be tuned to tighten up her skin to produce the effect of a brand new face lift. Over the course of the years, Cher tightened the knob, and the effects were wonderful - she remained young looking and vibrant. After fifteen years, she returned to her surgeon with two problems. "All these years, everything has been working just fine. I've had to turn the knob many times and I've always loved the results. But now I've developed two annoying problems: First, I have these terrible bags under my eyes and the knob won't get rid of them." Posted by: compos mentis on May 12, 2005 04:42 PM
I imagine that Anka wins by KO in the first... Posted by: Dave@fat kid's on May 12, 2005 05:18 PM
compos, thanks for bringing that up. I'm sure Ace will tell us "money talks, bullshit walks" or some other excuse about it, but we already know about his, tendencies, don't we? Oh, and it's a nice guy who happens to be a millionaire who asks a woman what her secret is. I'm telling ya, you add a couple of lasers and alien love slaves to that and you've got GOLD Posted by: Dave in Texas on May 12, 2005 05:42 PM
Compos, The secret is: all women just want to go f'ing crazy on a guy who uses the word "tushie". Yep. Posted by: Lipstick Dynamite on May 12, 2005 06:01 PM
ok, finally got around to listening to the paul anka audio bit, i think i'm up to speed on that now. any hints about "like a viking"? Posted by: ramms on May 12, 2005 06:15 PM
Ramms, I think "like a Viking" first popped up here. Posted by: utron on May 12, 2005 06:21 PM
thanks utron Posted by: ramms on May 12, 2005 06:32 PM
i feel about 30% less confused about the inside things on this site now. that's probably about as good as it's gonna get until i decide to bite the bullet and learn something about D&D Posted by: ramms on May 12, 2005 06:34 PM
ramms - Forget D&D, go straight for the hard stuff .... GURPS! Posted by: vonKreedon on May 12, 2005 09:39 PM
I love Paul Anka. I dislike Hillary. I don't like to see them together in the same sentence. But if that means Paul is selling a few grands in discs...well then, so be it. Posted by: Pete on May 13, 2005 05:37 AM
Maybe by replacing the Dusty ads with the nice tushie guy (Lipstick Dynamite), Ace is attempting to steal away some of hwsnbn's 'alternative lifestyle' readers. That way he can, just like Reynolds a.k.a. Instapundit a.k.a. Blog god, claim not to be as conservative as he really is AND start bringing some CRAZY cash into the coffers. Can't please all of his readers all of the time. But he should be trying to please as many at a time as possible. And from what I've seen, NAAG (nice ass ad guy) is not doing it. Oh, and Ace, some lasers and nekkid alien love slaves couldn't hurt. Posted by: compos mentis on May 13, 2005 09:19 AM
You're right compos, NAAG does scream "gay male prostitute". It was just fun to see a guy up there. Posted by: Lipstick Dynamite on May 13, 2005 10:29 AM
