Chelsea Clinton isn't just doing college tours to drum up support for her mother. A report out of Oregon shows Chelsea hung out with a lot of drag queens this weekend at Portland, Oregon's "Red Dress Party." Byron York from Willamette Week gives a first person account of seeing Chelsea among 2,000 men in "various states of red dress undress."

Yes, Chelsea Clinton made it to the infamous "Red Dress" Party.

Not to be confused with that other annual "Red Dress" fundraiser, this is the "Red Dress Party," a mondo-alcohol-fueled dance party where nearly 2,000 gay men in various states of red dress undress (and several nearly naked straight men as well as one very colorfully decorated naked woman) invade a warehouse in Northeast Portland and dance their collective asses off to pounding disco music and the incredible Storm Large and her Balls (they were beyond fabulous). Large, a bigtime Obama supporter even dedicated one of her more infamous songs, Ladylike, to Chelsea's mama.

More photos from the "Red Dress" party here.

Chelesa needs to pick her audience more carefully..........not there is anything wrong with dragqueens..........association theory of political science 101.

She spent some time with some drag queens and gays. Ok, where's the story? I spend every day with drag queens and trannys. How is this relevant to the election?

The only thing this demonstrates is Chelsea and Hillary's genuine comfort with and caring for the gay community. Good for them. They don't just talk about it, they do it.

And no, you don't just send your daughter to do a photo-op with some drag queens. It isn't as simple as going bowling to pretend you are in touch with average people. There is no faking it when you attend a party like that, and are posing arm and arm with a group of girls like that.

Would Obama do it? Would Michello O do it? Would he let his daughters do it if they were old enough? I doubt it.

Black churches are hotbeds of homophobia... which is so incredibly hypocritical it is disgusting. They motivate their followers by manipulating the frustration of racism... all the while peddling the same exact type of blind hatred they are denouncing.

What? that's absurd. "oooh look, she touched gay people, clearly she's got a heart" Everything this family doing (and the Obama family) right now is part of an agenda, and I mean an agenda in the literal sense, a scheduled, itemized list of events. You think Chelsea was just hanging out and said "hey let's go to that party with the drag queens!" Please. And have you never been to Vegas? People love posing for pictures with drag queens.

welcome all to the latest post of irrelevant crappinyton post show, your nuts may itch and your twat may twitch, the oblapie and huffpo whores will assure you that they know why, and they probably do since their vocation verges on the inane, and its something they "HOPE" they can solve by rummmaging around in the Dowd factory of chintz',y words.

You know what? I'm an Obama supporter, however, thank you for showing just how tolerant and open minded we progressives are. Guys wearing dresses!? How crazy! Next women will start wearing pants!!!

A good Repug would be publicly denouncing such a gathering, crafting a Constitutional amendment to prohibit such gatherings in the future, and then would go home to (use the dark recesses of your imagination to fill in this part.)

The sad part is that because of the Clintons' lowest common denominator politics, none of those queens will ever be able to wear a wedding dress. Live it up, boys. Go party with those who deny you equal rights.

I wonder if she got a loaner dress for Hil, tired of the pant suits. I think Hillary would look good in red.

Finally, Chelsea finds herself the prettiest girl in the room ... um ... actually ...

Is that really necessary? Hate her for something reasonable, like working for a hedge fund.

Is that the best you can do, insinuate she's ugly? Of all the crap the Clintons have done over the years, the best you can come up with is a personal attack? That is pathetic. Turn off Fox News and go read a newspaper. Maybe then you'll be able to graduate from the junior high debate team.
