PEE R. WHIZ AND PUSHY POSSE PUT ME IN MY PLACE

New York Post Op-Ed/Yahoo news ^ | 8/24/02 | ANDREA PEYSER

[LarryLied]

FOR the second time in 10 minutes yesterday, Lizzie Grubman and her potty posse took over the ladies' room. And wouldn't you know it. Nature called.

So there I was, on the third floor of Suffolk County's Criminal Court building, poised outside the lair of the peroxided Mercedes maven, heretofore to be known as the Princess of Pee. But just as I was about to seek my own private audience with the public plumbing, I was stared down by a man who must be 7 feet tall.

"Please wait 'til she's done," the bruiser requested.

This brought a compelling new aspect into the class war at the heart of the case of The People vs. Elizabeth Grubman:

Here outside a public bathroom in the people's courthouse was stationed a private bodyguard - one of six - setting up a rope line before Lizzie's VIP loo.

Having just gotten lost way out here, in a part of Long Island where some folks live in homes delivered off the backs of trucks and young women don't ordinarily drive into crowds in reverse, I had to go. As I saw it, I had three options:

1. I could channel Lizzie, look up into Sasquatch's belt buckle and declare: "F - - - you, white trash!" Or:

2. I could sound the spoiled rich chick's battle cry: "Don't you know who I am?"

But seeing that I can't afford the kind of reconstructive facial surgery on display from various members of the potty posse, I resorted to the kind of behavior that prior victims of Lizzie's famously impatient temper reverted to when Lizzie cut in front of the line.

I waited.

They say the Hamptons are now over. Throwing around one's weight is out. Cursing underlings just isn't done anymore. But then you watched Lizzie prance around the courthouse yesterday as if it were an exclusive nightclub.

Then you listened to her lawyer, Stephen Scaring, boast repeatedly that Lizzie's plea deal, in which she gets 60 days in jail for admitting she left the scene of an accident - but not driving drunk - "establishes, No. 1, that she was not intoxicated and, No. 2, it was not intentional."

What an absurd stretch.

So what did we learn from our Season of Lizzie? When in trouble - run! Not a very satisfying conclusion.

Just more anecdotal evidence that the Grubman's really do own the government of New York (or at least that they own every prominent Democrat).

One wonders how a female judge would have behaved when refused permission to enter a courthouse bathroom occupied by Lizzie and her bouncers.

Well, she would have waited, bowed, and thanked the princess for permitting her to use it at all...

ROFL

Meow! Pfft pffft! Hilarious.

I don't think one can just assume that the seat was left down........

[Vidalia]

Would you grant us an historical background of this prissy bitch and why she thinks she is the end/all of the PR industry as everyone should know it?

There is no difference between arrogant bastards and arrogant bitches, i.e. Martha Stewart.

[LarryLied]

Headline writers have a thankless difficult job. Whoever wrote this one must be very pleased with him/her self tonight.

Bet it ends up framed about the mantle.

She's the daughter of the music industry's most power attorney, and niece of the analyst who recommended Worldcom and Enron all the way down to bankruptcy (and was paid $30 Million in severance to leave). The Grubman's are also some of the NY Democratic Party's largest political contributors (not a small statement to make)...

[Vidalia]

I remember this part of the tale...

[Vidalia]

Ahhhhhhhhh, the Grubman connection...

[LarryLied]

Oh..Democrats. Working stiffs. Salt of the earth types. Protectors of the little guy. God bless 'em.

[Vidalia]

In other words she is a small statured little rich bitch Daddy's girl who thinks she can back over people, maybe killing a few, without repercussions...or was the bitch so high that she didn't feel the "bumps" and could care less about the "little people"?

The New England hierarchy/royalty is not built of stone as many think, MANY will come falling down in the next 18 months, including butt-loads of attorneys and CFOs from the banking biz.

The real bitch is that so many will be done at the midnight hour that the public will not hear about it unless Fox is alerted to the proceedings, which they may well be...

One of the best things about being a guy is that I will never...and I mean ever...find myself in the same bathroom with that ugly, ill-mannered little troll. As far as I'm concerned, Sasquatch did Andrea a favor.

I wonder how her treatment in the press and the court would be different if she were Republican?

[Southack]

"I wonder how her treatment in the press and the court would be different if she were Republican?"

Hoo hoo, ha ha, OOOOOOOhhhh that's funny.

Just picture the media feeding frenzy if Ann Coulter backed her Mercedes into a Black bouncer and 15 other kids waiting to be let into a club...

[Humidston]

Thank you LORD, that I don't have to live out there in the armpit of America anymore!!!!

[LarryLied]

The New England hierarchy/royalty is not built of stone as many think.. .

Hush you mouth...the Hamptons are not New England. Many of us swamp yankees don't consider Hyannisport to be New England either. Come to think of it, the entire state of Vermont is not looking much like New England recently as well...

[Vidalia]

Could ya, would ya, explain to the neighborhood...?

Don't let that typing finger slip!

[Fracas]

LOL. You been talkin' to Jumpin' Jim?

Methinks Lizzy is a candidate to be Bill Clinton's first guest on his new talk show!
