New York Post: ‘Fleisher did not return calls…’

From our bulging There Isn’t Enough Money Or Booze On Earth files:

[Lisa] Baron, the former spokeswoman for Christian Coalition head Ralph Reed, is working on a book she calls, “My Burning Bush: A Political Memoir of Biblical Proportions.”

Inevitably, when people hear Baron worked for Reed during the 2000 Republican presidential primary in South Carolina (she was Lisa Gimbel then), they ask if it’s true that Reed spread the false rumor that Sen. John McCain had fathered a black child.

“How would I know?” writes Baron. “I was too busy giving [George W. Bush’s future press secretary] Ari Fleischer [oral sex] in a Greenville hotel room.”
