‘The Fools That Bring Disaster’
There were other things I wanted to write about this evening, but now I feel like I’m obligated to write a society-page feature because the Drama Queen decided to make her debut at the cotillion: Ken Mehlman, President Bush’s campaign manager in 2004 and a former chairman of the Republican National Committee, has told family and […]
