Clinton mixes with big spenders during Vegas visit

Surely it’s an honor for any restaurant to play host to a former president on his birthday, and on Monday, Bill Clinton dined at Craftsteak at the MGM Grand.

Two thoughts: One, I guess no one tells the president to watch his cholesterol following a serious heart ailment. Two, I noticed that Hollywood producer and Big D donor Steve Bing was at the restaurant, which sits on property substantially owned by billionaire Kirk Kerkorian.

(A DNA test proved Bing was the father of Lisa Bonder’s child. Bonder happened to be attached to Kerkorian at the time.)

Clinton is attached to Bing, too. The Hollywood mogul is listed as giving upward of $25 million to Clinton’s post-presidential causes.
