Mitt Romney is coming to Newport Beach Friday, June 1st for a fundraiser event at the Balboa Bay Club and Resort.
Individual tickets to the reception are $1,000, and anyone willing to shell out a mere $10,000 gets to have their picture taken with the former Massachusetts governor. Have an extra $25,00 to spare? Write a check to Romney’s campaign fund and you get two tickets to a VIP reception, four tickets to the cocktail reception, plus that once in a lifetime a photo with the guest of honor!
A couple names on the guest are: Republican Party of Orange County Chairman Scott Baugh and real estate investor and former U.S. Ambassador to Spain George Argyros.
Now this sounds like an evening that will packed full of excitement but the real party will take place outside the event, called “Billionaires for Romney”. Several groups from around Orange County, including members representing , Occupy Santa Ana, Occupy Orange County, Occupy Long Beach, Orange County Peace Coalition, and Code Pink are putting on their finest duds and having a shindig of their own.
Christian Larsen, one of the hosts of the outdoor party expressed why he is coming, ” I want to open people’s minds to the problem of unchecked Wall Street power over politics, of which Romney is the perfect example, and let them know we can and will start to stand up to it together.”
If you find yourself with a few extra thousand dollars burning a hole in your pocket by all means get your name on the Romney guest list, but if you want to let him know what you think about the “GOP plan for America’s job creators” put on your Burger King hat, dust off those prom clothes and shake your booty with the 99%.

Chants some of us have come up with so far:
“1, 2, 3, 4 — we don’t care about the poor!”
“5, 6, 7, 8 — don’t you dare tax my estate!”
Hey-hey! Ho-ho!
Middle-class has got to go!
What do we want!
The rest of your money!
When do we want it!
Forever! [or should it be “Always!”?]
Up with Wall Street!
Down with your street!
I’m sure people here can come up with more — but you’d better hurry!
gee obama HAS A FUND RAISING event here and you hypocrites stay silent . all YOU HAVE TO SEE IS THE KOOKS THAT WILL BE OUT THERE CODE PICK. AND OCUSTINK , maybe they can crap on the lawn and hang out and scream how unfair everything IS .. you rip mitt for his 10,000 a plate but obama has one with the zany libs of hollyweird and its a national event .. might as well call this site msnbhehaw or daily kooks reporters . GET BOTH sides of the story .. OOPS I FORGOT THIS SITE HAS BEEN HIJACKED BY THE OCUPOO CROWD ..
LOL, a good point about the equally pricey event. But the big difference is Romney is running to pursue policies that will help the rich screw us over even more, while Obama is running to try and help all of us.
I tend to disagree.
But yeah, in terms of rants, that was a pretty good one from the grate one, LOL!
“while Obama is running to try and help all of us”………… Hmmmmmm
Do you too comprehend the world around you having open mouth with tongue hanging out?
Here are of Friday’s economy numbers which helped “us”, thanks to cool Obama, to lose substantial amount of our 401K and similar pension investments. To be exact we have lost everything we have made since the beginning of the year.
See http://www.forexfactory.com/calendar.php?do=geteventinfo&day=2012-6-1&c=2
Oh’ I forgot you and Golem have no private investment since you are collecting Obama stimulus.
However, you may feel somehow vindicated since the neo-billioner Zuckerberg lost about 30% of all billions he got two weeks ago — no taxes to government.
And so did everyone on the Wall street on Friday — no taxes to the government from the loses.
So keep looking Gröfaz, open your mouth even more with tongue hanging out and say wow!…… I am moron mongoloid.
But Obama is cool.
I should add that Cal’s Brown lunatic will open his mouth too in July when he gets his quarterly tax returns numbers because his budget hangs on taxing rich and it is rich who lost the billions on Friday.
We need 4 more years of Obama and Brown so idiots like you will become once again obsolete.
Some suggestions (which I’ve slightly edited) for chants from Daily Kos readers:
Two Four Six Eight — Lower my tax rate!
We’re here! We’re rich! We’re making you our bitch!
Who are we? Job Creators!
Where are the jobs? Shut up!
*Really too bad they couldn;t coordinate the “Doo Dah Parade” with Mitt’s appearance at the Balboa Bay Club. That would really make it big for great media coverage….
Evidently, the OC Weekly was keeping score: and Occupy wins!

AHHH WHAT A JOKE OCUPU WINS , YES THEY DO WIN IN PEOPLE BEING ARRESTED . THEN YOU TAKE IT OFF THE OC WEEKLY A FAR LEFT PAPER . GEE MIGHT AS WELL HAVE GOTTEN IT FROM MSLSD .. OR THE DAILY KOOKS
No one was arrested, eat grone. Back into your cage.
The real news there is that our own dear Amber has moved on to the Weekly … but she promised she’ll cross-post her stuff here!
Don’t do this one, though, Amber, I’m gonna put up a lot of photos from yesterday, some time this weekend.
Is she no longer at the Daily Titan? Did she do something drastic — like graduate?
Good hire by the Weekly, in any event! (And for any event!)
Vern, did you get to do your Seamus impression?
I’ll fill everyone in on that in my story … but short answer, no. Couldn’t find parking. Had to drive up and down the street honking with Seamus mask hanging out of dog crate instead….
