Hear Ye, Hear Ye Peasants:<\/p>\n
We–the royal We, meaning Me, Queen Meg–well, we’ve had a wonderful December. Did you hear about my tax breaks? I love Washington. What I don’t love is California. My demand to be coronated was rejected, and my November was ruined.<\/p>\n
But I forgive you, poor dears, and I mean that literally. With the new tax deal I am feeling magnanimous and have decided to donate some of my detritus in support of the Nicky Diaz Defense Fund. Yes that’s right, I’m doing what Meg Whitman herself wouldn’t: taking care of the housekeeper!<\/p>\n
The auction is being sponsored via the California Nurses Association and you can read more about it here<\/a> and here<\/a>.<\/p>\n Items to be auctioned include a High Tea with moi in Pasadena, where I will regale you and beknight you with my witticisms, as well my royal jewels, the royal jewels of my sidekick Princess Carly, and a “No Meg-usta” poster signed by Dolores Huerta, co-founder of the United Farm Workers.<\/p>\n If you’d prefer, you can be mail a donation directly to: Nicky Diaz Defense Fund, 1442-A Walnut Street #303, Berkeley, CA 94709.<\/p>\n Read the complete press release here<\/a> and go here<\/a> for background on the historic Queen Meg campaign.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hear Ye, Hear Ye Peasants:<\/p>\n We–the royal We, meaning Me, Queen Meg–well, we’ve had a wonderful December.
