Voyeur West Hollywood's Understated Elegance

A Michael Steele/RNC/Voyeur West Hollywood roundup:

The Washington Post reports on the RNC S&M controversy, "FEC report details lavish Republican spending, including nearly $2,000 at Voyeur West Hollywood." And at Huffington Post, "Michael Steele Called Tone Deaf By GOP Brass, Urged to Resign."

But what really caught my attention was this passage, from HuffPo, on the "understated elegance" of Voyeur West Hollywood, where RNC insiders and staff visited (although Michael Steele is said not to have attended the club):

The girl at the door sent us in right away and told us to go to a table by the bar and get some free Champagne. Seriously. This club is amazing. There are topless "dancers" acting out S&M scenes throughout the night on one of the side stages, there's a half-naked girl hanging from a net across the ceiling and at one point I walked to the bathroom and pretty much just stopped dead in my tracks to watch two girls simulating oral sex in a glass case.

Really understated elegance here.

Also, Lindsay Lohan was at our table at one point.

Plus, Michelle posts screencaps of Erik Brown's now-defunct Twitter page:

Via Memeorandum.

It turns out that Erik Brown's set to pay back the RNC, "GOP consultant who charged 2K to RNC at risque nightclub to return $."
