She is a multi-multi-millionaire

********

That’s right, she is, but I guess that just isn’t enough because she seems to need more. When is ENOUGH enough for these people. Facelifts, plumped lips and botox don’t cost that much if you’re as rich as she is.

She is a multi millionaire and she still worries she won’t sell enough books. Please!!! She’s greedy and arrogant.

If you ever watched any of Fashion Police, you would see she does get a little political. Against the right, of course. But, she is so obnoxious, I cannot bear her for more than a moment. Before anyone asks, I sometimes watch just to see what crazy outfits get shown.

Pity she wasnt in NYC. You have a First Amendment right to protest, but pull out a bullhorn without a permit and you’ll get arrested.

Her skin is sucked so tight , it squeezes blood flow to her noddle.

She can always paste the book to her forehead on her next QVC visit.

This woman is insane.

Nah. That she's not. This is funny stuff. Got some coverage, too -- even at FR.

I read somewhere on FR that Cosco is donating heavily to Obama’s reelection ; am I wrong?

Curious about where President Obama’s private Tuesday night fundraiser is going to be held? Big Democratic donor and recently retired Costco CEO James Sinegal is hosting it at his Hunts Point home where Obama will be meeting with 30 business leaders.

Yes, you're right.  This nincompoop is supporting him.
