Openly gay hotelier Ian Reisner claims he's dumbstruck. But we cats think he's just dumb.
Really! What else can you be when you swear you had no idea that hosting right-wing Republican hater Rafael Cruz for dinner the other night would get Reisner and his biz bud, Mati Weiderpass, in such hot water? "I am shaken to my bones," he said, "by the emails, texts, postings and phone calls of the past few days."
What? Ian, darling, we live in the age of instantaneous information. Cruz's positions on gay rights (and a zillion other issues) are out there for all the world to see.
So we're left wondering how someone like Reisner can be successful if he's so stupid. Could it be that money — particularly the taxes he pays, which he surely thinks are too high but which fund things like research on a cure for AIDS — is more important to Reisner than anything? Which means that for him, greed trumps all?
Or could it be that, since the ostensible purpose of the Cruz event was to discuss support for Israel, Ian Reisner has some, um, relationship with Ken Mehlman and Ari Fleischer that dares not be disclosed?
Suffice to say we cats are not buying Reisner's "shock" at the brouhaha he's caused. But we want to know more about that Ian-Kenny-Ari connection. We cats PURR.
