Kardashian and Lohan Attending White House Dinner: Do Celebs and Politics Mix?

The White House Correspondents' Dinner has always been a unique event attended by some... colorful celebs, and this year's event will be no different. In addition to headlining comedian Jimmy Kimmel, reality star Kim Kardashian and her mother, Kris Jenner, were reportedly invited as a guest of Fox News, while troubled actress Lindsay Lohan was invited as a guest of Greta Van Susteren. Our dram-o-metor is on alert.

The Dinner has evolved over the years since the White House Correspondents' Association started hosting it in 1914. It was originally a way of giving the press better access to the President and briefing rooms, and you know how much the press loves their celebrities. Who's going to read about a press conference if there are no comedians or trainwreck celebs like Kim Kardashian and Lindsay Lohan to speak of? But do politics and celebs ever mix?

    Actors should stick to acting. Most of them suck at anything else.

    Sure celebs and politics mix. but most of them are on the liberal side. There are the occasional conservative celebs but not many.

    Of course celebrities and politics don't mix but we have a President who wants more than anything to be a celebrity so this is no shocker.

    It could mix, quite niecly, if there were different people attending. I'm afraid I'll have to listen to these dim bulb train wrecks expound upon their impressions and opinions for the next month or so. That I could definitely live without.
    I'm guessing Fox invited them as cheap laughs for people with 3 digit IQ's...

    You're right. When I said entertainment, I was thinking more along the lines of cheap laughs for people with 3 digit IQ's.

    1/ The dinner was not at the White House, it was in a hotel. The Washington Hilton ballroom.

    and 2/ Fox news invited Lohan and Kardashian and her mommy as their guests.

    Obama did not only not have this at the White house, he did not invite anyone, and is not even in charge of the dinner. The VP in charge of this dinner ALSO works for Fox news!

    since Soda Head is dominated by Conservatives,the NO Vote is to be expected.what else would you expect from a group of people,who have to schedule sex?and have no appreciation for Women.generally,Conservatives are very practical business people.so unless there is an Exchange of Money they Do Not experience any sense of Satisfaction.Liberals, thank the Higher Power for women every Ten Seconds.Liberals when not conducting the Practice of Sex are Thinking about it.and what better why to stay focused on such a passionate subject than observing Lindsey and Kim?I cannot think of a Worse Trick than being a Republican Conservative.

    No you're a little confused.I find it very interesting you would even respond.most times it takes a knudge of Truth to jolt someone into action.how long have you had these shared Conservative problems? have you tried therapy?board games?

    I commented because it's quite frankly amazing that you have been taking in the "progressive" machine's propaganda for so long. It's unfortunate that you have lived spiteful for so long, but hey, they can be very convincing at times.

    What's amazing is the stunning amount of personal ignorance you've amassed in your short time on Earth. It's unfortunate that your parents haven't taught you how to behave like a grown up

    "What's amazing is the stunning amount of personal ignorance you've amassed in your short time on Earth. It's unfortunate that your parents haven't taught you how to behave like a grown up"

    LOL. Stunning amount of personal ignorance... and now let's look at the comment you just made below:

    "I bet you spend a lot of time in detention for defending your D average, don't you?"

    Aside from the fact that your internet trolling stinks, I'd say it's more unfortunate and even shameful that your parents let you leave the house so arrogant and spiteful. It's quite foolish to make such claims, particularly on the internet when you know no one and can run your mouth as you please. But hey, guess that's all the more reason to be a fool. What, did your posse get butt-hurt to the point that they needed a THIRD person down here to rag on me? That is so terribly sad. Consider this the one and only response you will receive, you are worth less time than the previous two dimwits before you.

    You're obviously laboring under the misapprehension that you know what you're talking about. Hint: You don't. Come back in a few years when you're a little older and we'll see if you've managed to learn anything valuable.

    Lol oh man, was that supposed to be a burn? Was that supposed to make me angry and start throwing f-bombs? That was pathetic. I know you left-wingers have a cave where you discuss about detractors and folks that pose a threat to all of you. However, where you folks fail in your attempt to discredit and smear them is the fact that you all do it in the EXACT SAME WAY. It's pitiful, but also quite laughable from my standpoint.

    Your comrade bigfoot here has been wearing his "big boy pants" for some time. He can handle himself.

    Alex take a breath.we are needling you ,because your serious demeanor and childish response is classic Conservative.its a good bet,you haven't had a rollicking belly laugh in your life.mention Republican Conservative you certainly don't conjur up an image of a fun loving,happy person you want to be around.which is exactly why I wrote my original comment you responded to.and guess what?your proving us Right.let me clue you in.you flatter yourself if you seriously believe you pose a threat to Mo gal and me in any way shape or form.Mo gal and me have been on S H for years.taken on far more formidible RWNJ Conservatives than you.and sent them packing.and Mo is right.you really do need to grow up.because with all the Conservatives that dominate S H You're the only one who Bit the Hook.stick around Alex.if our mild comments cause your underwear to go into a bunch and twist, you just wait until we really unload on you for your statements.if you're wise,which you've shown no indication of being you'll take your nonsense and move on.
