Since this story is so damned frivolous I put it here in the Watercooler.
I have absolutely no idea what this girl sings...all I know is she's in magazines at the checkout stand in the supermarket and she thinks Chicken of the Sea is chicken in a can, oh yeah, and her sister lip synched on SNL. But THIS is the type of "guest" the Republicans want at their wretched fundraisers?
Maybe Jessica's daddy pays more attention to poll numbers than the thugs in the WH.
Poor Boner (Boehner... he can pronouce it Bay-ner all he wants, I say BONER!) has to sit next to a porn star instead. Is the WH going to investigate his computer now and save the children from porn? I'm astounded at the "requests" made by Miss Simpson. One-on-one with the pretzeldent? The unmitigated gall!
Heartthorb? What am I missing?

NRCC Dissed by Daisy Duke

After first accepting an invitation — and demanding one-on-one face time with President Bush, a picture with the POTUS and formal recognition at tonight’s big GOP fundraising dinner — tabloid heartthrob Jessica Simpson has bailed out.

HOH hears that her father, Joe Simpson, put the kibosh on his little darling attending the dinner because he doesn’t want her associated with Republican politics. Simpson’s publicist, Ike Lee, said “yes” on Tuesday when the National Republican Congressional Committee extended an invitation to Simpson to attend tonight’s gala, though only after the NRCC agreed to a litany of demands.

Simpson insisted she get a picture with Bush “before anyone else went through the line,” NRCC spokesman Carl Forti told HOH, and she wanted a few minutes of alone chat time with the president. In addition, she wanted to be acknowledged at the dinner and she wanted the NRCC to “acknowledge” the charity she’s affiliated with, Operation Smile, “and the great work they do,” Forti said.

But on Wednesday, Daddy Simpson pulled the plug. “Jessica Simpson is visiting D.C. on behalf of Operation Smile. She will not be attending any events or fundraisers while she is in DC,” read a statement from Brian Hale, spokesman for Patton Boggs, which is doing pro bono work on behalf of the charity, which helps to surgically repair cleft palates.

Forti seemed not only miffed, but perplexed. “I can’t believe Ms. Simpson would turn down an opportunity to promote Operation Smile with the president and the House leadership,” he said.

Oh well. Looks like the NRCC is stuck with porn star Mary Carey as its celebrity headliner tonight. Maybe she’ll get that seat next to House Majority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio), where the NRCC had been planning to put Simpson.

Damn! Wow.

I can almost assure you that Ms. Simpson probably doesn't even know a single member of our federal government's name.

Isn't this the Daisy Duke who got caught Lip Sinking her music on SNL?

Isn't this the same Daisy Duke who Can't sing, (thank gawd for studio tools)
but thanks to her daddies business smarts, managed to market her hooters as musical talent?

Nope, Totally wrong. This is the one who newliwed show was on MTV. She is famous for her comment on the show about tuna in a can being chicken, because of the brand "Chicken of the Sea" she is also a singer and that is her main bread and butter. No she does not lip sink.

Well then!
I'm sure glad we settled that!

Dont ask how I know the differnce between the two. They do have the same name. It was easy to confuse the two in you are not in the "scene".
