Reince Priebus - LOOK WHAT HAPPENS if you take out all the vowels

True and clever.

[dixiegrrrrl]

4. THAT be worth a rec, for sure.

How clever of you to spot that.

Ohhh..I just checked. His name is Reinhold R. Priebus
In 2009, he became general counsel of the RNC under chairman Michael Steele.
and he is also, apparently, a snake:

Priebus has come under fire from conservative activists for his role in seeking federal stimulus funds during his time at the Michael Best & Friedrich law firm in 2009. Priebus was a member of the firm's "Stimulus Legislation Team," which sought to "identify opportunities, prepare appropriate proposals and make targeted contacts to secure funds.” He has denied association with that team, though numerous documents appear to show his membership.<18>

Priebus has been criticized because, having been named to a staff position by Steele, he then ran against him. Steele said, "It’s disappointing, you would hope that the bonds of loyalty were thicker than they apparently were".

Your find seems doubly delicious and appropriate now, Mira.

9. Great background info, thanks. I wish I could claim the catch

but I saw it a few days ago on a TV show, maybe even one of "ours", laughed, and forgot about it til I spotted this thread in the lounge

when I decided this is too good not to share with GD.

5. Send that to Colbert and/or Daily Show!

6. Perfect....I remember

something about our names telling us what we are. For example, Lee Iacocca. His last name: I Am Chairman Of Chrysler Corporation America.

For what it's worth.
