Charlie Pierce on Rmoney's La Jolla vacation mansion
Look, folks, there's something we're all going to have to get used to, as long as the Mormon Clampetts are abroad in the land. There are only two kinds of people: Willard Romney and The Help. And it doesn't matter how much money you have, he has more and, therefore, you are as much The Help as the gardeners who became such an annoyance when he was running for public office, for Pete's sake. It doesn't matter how much work you put in to make your particular slice of heaven as fabulous as possible, he can afford to have more put into his and, therefore, you are the help. Far be it from the blog to suggest any direct political action to the locals out there, but it seems to me there's a stretch of beach that could use a little Occupying. I'm pretty damned sure this isn't what Brian Wilson had in mind.

"We'll take a dozen of these, & while you're at it, could you throw in a clothesline & some clothespins?"
so first thing each morning, when he looks out his window he has some nice thought to greet him. Something to meditate on all day and before he goes to bed each night...as he lay there, tossing and turning, wondering what new message will be walked into his beach if he dares to fall asleep...
