Porn star Mary Carey

WASHINGTON – Pornographer Mark Kulkis says tonight's presidential fund-raiser, which includes him and his date, XXX porn star Mary Carey, will make pop-culture history.

But the National Republican Congressional Committee seems more intent on using President Bush's $2,500-a-plate speech to make political fund-raising history.

Congressional Republicans expect to add at least $23 million to their party campaign funds at the event featuring the president.

The National Republican Congressional Committee raised at least $14 million for House Republicans through the gala, while the National Republican Senatorial Committee took in $9 million.

At least 5,000 people were expected to attend the $2,500-per-ticket dinner at the Washington Convention Center.

The House GOP dinner donors include adult film executive Kulkis, who plans to take porn actress and former California gubernatorial candidate Carey, who says she will stage a fashion show and news conference to display her dinner outfit before the gala.

Meanwhile, White House spokesman Scott McClellan yesterday refused to answer questions about the attendance of the porn star and her boss at the presidential dinner.

WorldNetDaily's White House correspondent, Les Kinsolving, asked McClellan about the controversy, but the spokesman deflected the questions, referring WND to the organization sponsoring the event, the National Republican Congressional Committee. Two weeks ago, McClellan said he hadn't looked that far ahead in the president's schedule and pleaded ignorance of the event.

Asked about the propriety of the Republican Party accepting $5,000 from a pornographer and the example such an appearance set for the moral climate of the nation, McClellan said: "I think you need to direct those questions to the committee itself."

Kulkis, who says he was personally invited to the dinner, has been using the opportunity to promote his company, Kick A-- Pictures, and the pornography industry.

The presence of two high-profile pornographers at an event to honor the president hasn't concerned the organization hosting the event.

Carl Forti is communications director for the National Republican Congressional Committee, which raises funds for GOP congressional candidates.

Referring to Carey and Kulkis, Forti told WND: "They've paid their money. No matter what they do, the money is going to go to help elect Republicans to the House."

The buxom Carey, 24, ran for California governor against Arnold Schwarzenegger on a platform that included taxing breast enhancements, making lap dances tax deductible, recruiting porn stars as "ambassadors of good will" and putting Web cams up in every room of the governor's mansion.

Carey, who says she is a Christian who prays and reads her Bible every night, said she's excited about the possibility of speaking personally with Bush.

"It would be an honor to meet him," she told WND. "I'd like to talk to him about issues like freedom of speech and the crackdown on the adult industry. Maybe he can give me some political pointers."

Last month, Carey was among five people arrested at a new strip club in a suburb of Tacoma, Wash. All were accused of violating the local adult-cabaret ordinance, some by getting too close to customers and others – including Carey – by touching themselves in a sexual manner, according to the Associated Press.

Kulkis, 40, says he'll be representing the $10 billion porn industry as well as his own company at the fund-raiser. A native of Michigan, the English literature major turned pornographer says he'd be surprised, disappointed and upset if he were somehow turned away, but he doesn't expect that to happen. He also serves as honorary chairman of the NRCC's Business Advisory Council, a group which describes itself as a "small, prestigious group of conservative businessmen and women."

World Net Daily??????????? Is this like the National Enquirer?????????????

excuseme

One would think so but it's actually a highly coveted conservative website. Ann Coutler posts there. I would think you would know that. The story is true and you can google it yourself if you doubt. Too bad that "liberalism" media isn't running with the story. She's going to have a private meeting with Karl Rove prior to dinner too. This proves RNC's motivatations are money and votes (to buy power with) and not the christian conservativism the red states are so desparate to believe.

Here's a link to FOXNews with the story http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,159445,00.html

2 people out of 5000 who will be attending??? So they will be sitting at the back near the kitchen and probably won't even be able to see Bush without opera glasses. Lots of talk but no substance. Bush is not going to waste his time talking to them even if they did shell out the bucks. His people will be sure of that.

They have a private meeting with Karl Rove prior to dinner. Doesn't appear they are being shunned at all. Karl Rove pretty much is the president as far as policy and decision making goes. Your statement seems incorrect.

Here we have illegal activites excused for a Clinton while some are ready to roast Bush for the entirely legal activities of the National Republican Congressional Committee staff - whom he has NO control over ( unlike Hilary and her Campain Manager )

Karl Rove is not Bush. This is a fill in. I am sure it's to be sure that their money keeps rolling in. Most fund raisers don't care where the money comes from as long as it keeps coming.

When in doubt blame Bill and Hillary for everything Bush does, it's typical. Will George W ever be responsible for his own actions without the mentioning of the Clintons? I find the argument to be rather nauseating and I don't even like Hillary much.

What does Clinton have to do with Bush, "the christian conservative who claims God speaks to him" associating himself with porn stars?

Bush is a hypocrite, don't speak against this stuff, claim christianity, and then have a personal meeting with some two dollar porn star just because she contributed to your campaign. God knows what she did to get that 2,500. ROTF!!!

OMG! I totally agree with you! For the life of me I can't understand people's support for Bush. He only cares about the rich, and to hell with the rest of us. I think he is sneaky and underhanded.
