Times must be tough for this former colleague of neo-con "Wee Willie" Kristol of the wingnut "Weekly Standard":
Prominent Washington PR agent David Bass is a suspect in the theft of two bottles of liquor from VIP hotspot Café Milano earlier this month, according to records obtained by the Washington Post.
D.C. police released a surveillance video which shows two men entering the Georgetown restaurant through the kitchen in the early morning hours of July 1 after it had closed for the night. One man is seen grabbing two bottles — one Grey Goose vodka, the other Campari — from behind the bar, while the other appears to act as the lookout.
At least a dozen acquaintances of Bass’s who have reviewed the footage say the second man is Bass, and records name him as a suspect.
A fixture on the Washington social scene, Bass, 49, is the president and CEO of communications firm Raptor Strategies and was deputy publisher of the Weekly Standard from 1997 to 2004. (our emphasis)Burglarizing a restaurant to steal... a bottle of Grey Goose and a bottle of Campari?? What was it, a (felonious) scavenger hunt? Bass's firm Raptor Strategies's home page declares "The Rules Have Changed." Not when it comes to theft and breaking and entering it hasn't, pal.
