Luke Russert’s Fancy Brown Party Is OFF

We were perusing this Washingtonian list of fancy inauguration parties, which somehow includes Wonkette’s, and were disheartened to see that Luke Russert’s country club “jacket required” soiree is no longer an option. “Old Man Brown” (Obama) has other commitments? [Washingtonian]

    To not wear a jacket would be an affront to the memory of St. Tim, the most hard-hitting journalist who ever ignored the wrong answers.

    Yeah, a jacket is required, but pants are optional.

    Did the $95 include anal on the first date? Luke should’ve known that, with this being an outgoing Republican administration, that strategy was doomed to fail.

  4. Luke and Meghan McCain decided instead to take the night off for some self-loathing drunk fucking, after which they will curse God for giving them every gift except good looks.

    ‘$95 for the first 50 tickets sold’–how much are ticket numbers 51 & up? Also a food & drink cash bar? C’mon Luke, I’m sure Timmeh left you a large enough inheritance that you can pick up the tab.

    ph7: Also, in some countries Meghan’s child-bearing hips would be a gift from ALL the fertility gods.

  8. He’d have gotten a better response if he changed “cash bar” to “debit bar”.

  9. Hey. What about all those of us too cheap to buy plane tickets to your fancy party? (read: Canadian)

    Are you planning on posting photos of the party? *As it happens*?
    Or maybe, ooo, setting up a webcam! Yeah, yeah! Then I can laugh at you guys as you get drunk!
    While I get drunk.
    And weep.
    For change.

    I find “Old Man Brown” to be a euphemism for post-buttsecks.

    Tommy Says Ira G is a Tool: Or Walnuts Gravy. Which is brown with age.

    Perhaps it finally sunk in that having your dad die is a bad thing and so now he haz a sad.

  13. Ticket price: $95 for the first 50 tickets sold.

    There’s the problem. After the first 50 tickets were sold, partygoers had to donate a kidney to get in the door.

    Mr Blifil: FTW!

    Saw him on Morning Joe the other day and all I have to say is its too bad his dad isn’t around anymore to force this kid to get a proper hair cut! I would liken it to a tragic bowl cut, his hair is awful..

    What the fuck kind of party doesn’t have an open bar? SERIOUSLY. WHAT THE FUCK.

  17. $95 bucks? Is there some coke or nakid dudes with that or something?

  18. finallyhappy says at 6:06 pm, January 16th, 2009

    The Post has a huge list of parties and events- I can’t really think that there are so many people paying all of this money to go to these things. But then my idea of a wild time is $1 candy night at the movies

  19. chascates says at 6:30 pm, January 16th, 2009

    Perhaps The Rookery was too befouled by eagle scat from the sadness of departing Bush staffers?

  20. assistant/atlas says at 6:44 pm, January 16th, 2009

    Has the sad period for Tim Russert ended yet? Because I’m quite ready to start saying what I really think about Luke, the most incompetent, undeserving beneficiary of nepotism since at least Meghan McCain.

    Hint: it’s not very nice.

  21. How come “Jacket Required” is in quotes? Why not Time: “8 PM”? “Old Man Brown Band” is what my dad has in his underwear, also.

  22. smellyal8r says at 10:14 pm, January 16th, 2009

    shortsshortsshorts: Especially for 95 bucks. That should include drinks for the night (or at least four or five drink tickets). Plus, if it’s 20 degrees outside and with a Wonkette party in full swing…pass…

  23. smellyal8r says at 10:15 pm, January 16th, 2009

    finallyhappy: Who is this “Candy” of whom you speak and what movie?

  24. gurukalehuru says at 7:16 am, January 17th, 2009

    Tommy Says Ira G is a Tool: “Old Man Brown”=”Turdblossom”??!!

  25. BrownPenance says at 4:08 pm, January 17th, 2009

    shortsshortsshorts: A party for rich brown peoples.

  26. hahaha Old man brown. awesome.

  27. DangerousLiberal says at 8:07 pm, January 17th, 2009

    Actually, the band’s name is old brown man. That’s not racial transcendence.
