Dennis Perrin's essay yesterday at Red State Son was an absolute masterpiece. It's short, but concentrated and flawlessly composed.
The topic is the social and class implications of Vogue model Naomi Campbell's upcoming community service/janitorial gig, which was the sentence the court imposed after she clobbered her maid with a blackberry.
Just think of the political ramifications of seeing Donald Trump down on his knees cleaning a toilet. Imagine Hillary Clinton washing your car, or Al Gore doing the mow and blow on your yard.
Perrin says, "Now if we can hand mops to all of those bored-looking, rich white assholes who appear in the front pages of Vanity Fair every month, we might get a decent trend going. Wouldn't you like to see the Trumps scrubbing dirty tile with toothbrushes? I'm sure Rosie O'Donnell would."
