Washington Gears Up For White House Correspondents Parties!

Thursday, April 24th, 2008

This Saturday is the annual White House Correspondents Association dinner in Washington D.C., a.k.a. former Wonkette editor Alex Pareene’s favorite night of the year! And as in previous years, your Wonkette will not be going to the stupid dinner but will be attending after parties thrown by various Main Stream Media publications and networks. One of the most select is the Bloomberg party, the organizers of which HAVE NOT RETURNED OUR E-MAIL YET but did let this random DUDE in who obviously plans on cheating on his boyfriend, with a Wingboy.
