Texans for Lawsuit apparently has some money to throw around. Elise Hu, a political junkie, received the invite from TLR to female legislators to be pampered on the PAC's dime.
Texans for Lawsuit Reform, the power-advocacy group behind tort reform in Texas, is going to take good care of the ladies of the legislature. TLR is treating female lawmakers, spouses and staff members to "manicure, pedicures, chair massages and more" (not sure what more means) at the Four Seasons Hotel next week.
The actual invite can be found on her site here.
It's no steak dinner, but in these troubling economic times, it is good to see TLR knows how to spend their donors money. It is good to see they know how to prioritize spending. I know some PAC's would rather spend money getting good people elected. Some PAC's don't waste people's donations on expensive, unnecessary pampering.
If we did, we would at least make sure everyone was invited.
Update: One reader pointed out this may or may not be the PAC itself. If it is, then the invite is not properly disclaimed. More likely, this is an expense out of their non-profit corporation and will be a lobby expense (which we will find out soon enough). In either case, this is a donor funded pampering.
Update by KT: See, that's where John Sharp went wrong. We should have gotten together and chatted Senate race politics over mani-pedis! |
