If I were a Republican, with McCain as my standardbearer in November, I'd be drinking all the fuckin' time.

Aw, shit. I think I might be a Republican...

Life really is that much better for republican fat cats. A wave of the hand and bars are open til 4 a.m. and you get "backsy" priveleges on bathroom sex guilty pleas.

that picture is very scary.

Good to see Minnesota doing its part to help America figure out who it would like to have a beer with. If the MN legislature wanted to do something really crazy, they could permit liquor sales in grocery stores and on Sunday.

They will probably have to spike the punch with Geritol to keep people awake. People should drink energy drinks + vodka, despite the fact that it might kill you and prevent your attendance. Wait, that's a double victory!

As long as they never have their convention in Manhattan again, ever, let them drink until 4am. I encourage it. I also encourage them to drive home on dark and windy country roads when they are finished.

They're even going to keep the restroom stalls at the airport open all night!

Wait! Doesn't the GOP's targeted sexual demographic have to be in bed by 9 on school nights?

For the duration of the Republican National Convention, the state GDP of Minnesota will be measured in Whore Diamonds.

Wouldn't hooker discount coupons be more appropriate for the Democrat convention (assuming every superdelegate isn't in prison by then)?

Minneapolis' sole prostitute, 53 year-old Dixie Knudson, is positive she can handle the Republicans this Summer, but worries about competition from the cross-town Boy Scout Jamboree.

Some may recall the long-time resident was portrayed plying her wares in the movie "Fargo."

Normal St Paul night life is nonexistent. By 7 it's a ghost town unless there is a hockey game. The only people that will be up that late are the republicans.

Sara… aggrieved?

@jagorev:
The difference is that GOP prostitutes don't come with an FBI undercover surveillance detail.

If anyone has leads on tickets to the Craig/Vitter/Foley party, for the love of God let me know.

It's really kind of sad that it takes a bunch of Republicans to make Minnesota a hotbed of hedonism.

The bar is paid a flat fee and will cater only to those on a private list.
As usual, this is only for the privileged. The serfs, as usual, will be locked in their quonset huts by ten p.m.

Minnesota's legislative motto: Beer before bridges!

As far as hookers go, it's better to BYO. Unless you like 'em hefty and high mileage.

Good Lord, that picture might be the dirtiest thing I've ever seen!

Hooker discount coupons are only valid on escorts rated three Whore Diamonds (TM) or less.

As a DFL party member, I'll be sitting home alone in the dark drinking vodka.

In case any Republicans are looking to see what the "lacal talent" looks like, the Saint Paul police department keeps a gallery of prostitution arrests: [www.stpaul.gov]

...woooooo-hooooooo! Go and get the meth and ball-gags out of storage boys!

@idsfa: oh my. Want to wager how many of those people was/is addicted to meth?

Will Mark Foley be there? It won't be a party if Mark Foley isn't there.

@spangledangel: and limited to 1 per customer, not available with other discounts, offers, or boy scouts.

Ummm...where can I get a higher resolution version of that picture of Mitt? I need it for archival purposes. yeah. that's the ticket.

@thefrontpage: you should text him to invite him. Mention that you are a 15 year old male.

Comment on Republican National Convention Fixing To Be 4 AM Rager "What next, hooker discount coupons?" --->no, no, no ! They're called "Freedom Tax Credits" !

@baseproduct:
Safety first. The proposed 4 a.m. drinkies rule would apply only to "bars within a 10 mile radius [of the convention] rather than the seven county metro." That's a 314 sq. mile area, btw.

Does the 10 mile radius reach St. Paul?

Isn't KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!!! championing this? It doesn't pass the smell test. She's probably hoping for plenty of DUIs and a few scandals with the extra drinking time.

@sluggo: Ha ha look at you with your MATH.
