The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills: Raise the Tax Rate of the Upper Bracket


When Bravo's Real Housewives of New Jersey came on to my TV screen, I avoided them. I did not want to get hooked on any more of the Bravo Housewives. Atlanta and New York City were enough. And I've never been able to watch much of the OC Housewives due to the fact that the one named Vicki Gunvalson bugs me bad. Watching that Vicki girl discomforts me.

So, when the D.C. Housewives came along, I did not look at a single second of them. Same with the Beverly Hills Housewives.

Well.

Carlotta Del Rio, she being one of The Real Housewives of Camano Island, informed me that The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills was being highly entertaining. And that the Beverly Hills had one particularly despicable Housewife in the form of Kelsey Grammer's (now ex) wife Camille. Who has managed, even before the Beverly Hills Housewives have finished their first season, to become the most reviled Housewife in Bravo Housewife History.

So, I saw my AT & T U-Verse On Demand had the latest 4 episodes of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills available for viewing. And so I viewed them.

Not knowing anything about these Housewives, except that one was married to Frasier, I found them instantly very entertaining.

And zipping all over Beverly Hills highly interesting.

Watching so much conspicuous consumption made me conclude the Bush tax cuts for the upper bracket need to go, and the upper bracket needs to be taxed more.

I had to go to the Bravo Real Housewives of Beverly Hills website to find out how these women managed to live these bizarrely privileged lifestyles.

Taylor Armstrong married a skeezy looking venture capitalist named Russell. This explains how she can afford massive amounts of collagen injections, or whatever it is that causes gigantic swollen lips.

Lisa VanderPump is a Brit. What a name. VanderPump. I like Lisa. She seems to have come by her money by working hard and being creative, opening a lot of bars in Europe and restaurants in America. She has a live-in houseboy named Cedric. And a cute little dog named Gigolo she sleeps with.

The Richards sisters, Kim and Kyle, were child actors, both appearing in the Disney movie, Return to Witch Mountain. I'm pretty sure that's the name of the movie. Both have reproduced multiple times. Kyle is married, while Kim is not a wife. And it really does not appear that she actually lives in Beverly Hills. Both are aunts to Paris Hilton, because Paris' mother, Kathy, is the sister of Kyle and Kim.

Adrienne Maloof is like Lisa. Normal. And she seems to have come by her money the honest way. By earning it. Her family owns the Sacramento Kings, the Palms Casino in Las Vegas, a film, television and music producing business and the world's biggest skateboard competition. Adrienne does a lot of charity work. And she has really pedestrian tastes. I saw her spread Peter Pan Peanut Butter on white bread. Yuck.

And then there is Camille. What is wrong with Frasier, I mean, Kelsey Grammer, that he picks such awful women to mate with? This one makes Lilith look like a catch. I have not seen all of what has made the viewers despise Camille. But, today I saw a part of an episode I have not watched. Camille was planning a trip to Hawaii. Basically she had all this help to make the trip work, including a couple nannies. Camille acted as if planning this trip was extremely hard work. Very taxing for her. But she basically did nothing except ask questions, like if the pool would be heated. what cars will be there to drive, that type stuff.

Anyway, new episode of RHOBH tonight. I have my DVR set to record it.

I don't know when The Real Housewives of Camano Island starts up. I wonder if Carlotta Del Rio will be the Camille of that series?
