Suburbia: 140-mile commute to LA and back, life in subsidized housing in Antelope Valley is of a different brand.
Douchebag: So this is where David E. Kelley gets his material for Boston Legal on ABC -- right here in LA where our own City Attorney stonewalls the simplest of yes or no questions. What an asshole, don't vote for this guy if he runs for anything. Another good example: he wasted money suing the Grand Theft Auto video game over hidden pornography. Really?
