Could You Imagine the Right Wing Freakout at a Soros Primary?

[Seawytch]

Alas for Walker, Adelson—the chairman and CEO of Sands Corp, owner of the Venetian casino resort where Camp Sheldon was held; proprietor of a fortune valued at nearly $40 billion; and profligate and impulsive funder of Republican causes, notably Newt Gingrich’s 2012 presidential primary campaign—was not there to hear him speak. He also missed half of Christie’s speech, a speech in which Christie erred by referring to the West Bank and Gaza as “occupied territories.” Not to this crowd, they’re not. Christie was summoned to the master’s lair, where he abjectly apologized—a penance Adelson reportedly accepted.​

Oops...Christie went and called an occupied territory an occupied territory. Do you think he had to kiss Adelson's ring in apology?

Kerry's $7 million dollar baby, the one he berths in Rhode Island to avoid excessive taxation on it.

These are the people who compare each other's yachts and turbo props, size of the estate. These people wear designer clothing and jewelry where cost is not an issue, or maybe the issue. While America has no problem with this kind of behavior per se it is when these people manipulate U.S. politics and suck up social programs to add to their buying power. They are not poor, they have never been poor, they will never be poor, they don't understand poor, all they know is who sat where at the dinner table. The rest of us are more concerned about what's on the table. If the mega-rich want to play their games of the outdoing the other in extravagance so be it but leave our tax code, our political process, and our social safety net out of it.

You're right. That is absolutely appalling. Kerry should be ashamed of himself. There is no way those sails are trimmed correctly. His main is pulled in too tight and he is getting pushed over too much for the apparent wind speed. That sure is one nice boat though. I'm sorry, what was your point?

Thanks a lot. That was cruel. Now I am sitting here missing the heck out of my boat.

I went to Monaco a couple of years ago.

That was was chock full of mega super yachts from America.

And insurance policies that bundled the yacht and the helicopter that sat on it.

Well, if you need to ask, it helps confirm your bias.
