Commenter anonone points us to this link from Politico. The article explains what the Young Eagles program is supposed to do and how it works. The program is supposed to encourage younger rich Republicans to become high dollar donors to the RNC. What it actually does is function as a way for the RNC to pay for events for young Republicans (like the lesbian bondage sex club). Included in this report is a description of one Young Eagles event attended by Mike Castle.
Take the group’s October outing to a Monday night National Football League game between the Washington Redskins and the Philadelphia Eagles at FedEx Field in suburban Washington, for which the RNC paid $20,300 to rent a suite, according to the committee’s FEC filings.
The filings also show a $5,000 payment to the Redskins’ stadium about the same time for “office supplies,” which could not be immediately explained by an RNC spokesman, who also did not know how much was raised by the event.
But among those who took in the game from the RNC’s suite were Steele, Rep. Mike Castle (R-Del.) and Erik Brown, the Young Eagle member who footed the Voyeur bill — none of whom contributed to the RNC in 2009 or through February 2010.
In other filings items like alcohol were classified as “office supplies.” I think it’s time to ask Mike Castle what kind of office supplies he was using at the Eagles game in October.
