Partying down with the enemies of the proletariat

Far-lefty Marc Cooper on a DNC party:

Follow the money, they say. So I did. And it led right to the Wellfleet oysters and mango lobster cakes. And the grilled swordfish. And the stuffed figs and sushi. As well as the ham, turkey, pasta, grilled vegetables, smoked duck, jumbo shrimp, fresh clams, cream puffs, napoleons, and eclairs. And to the gourmet wine bar and two or three other free-flowing bars. Also to a couple of jazz bands, a handful of performing human mannequins, a spectacular view from the top of Boston's highest skyscraper. And lapping all this up late last night, the California Congressional Delegation and much of the cream of Democratic "progressivism" — including Doctor Dean and House minority leader Nancy Pelosi.(see the pictures in the posting below) By day they rail against special interests. By night, they party down with them.

While this blog has provided a wealth of Pelosi coverage, if I had to choose just one favorite Pelosi post it would be: "Nanci Pelosi, supporter of sweatshops, opponent of citizens and laws".
