Hundreds protest Koch's $50K-a-plate fundraiser for Romney

From @StopMotionsolo's live feed. Thanks Matt H!

Several hundred protesters marched today down the paved rural street outside the $50,000-a-plate Romney fundraiser held by Benedict Arnold David Koch. They followed two giant banners that said "Mitt Romney has a Koch problem." Cheers erupted as a plane flew over the Koch home carrying a banner with the same words.

It's 95 degrees in Southampton, so they're on their way to the beach outside Koch's home, where they plan to be polite but loud. Secret Service agents told them they have to stay 1,000 feet away. There's a local ordinance that bans picketing outside of private homes. Charming.

Wait, they've reached the beach, according to Jobs Party founder Harry Waisbren. Despite a weak signal, he managed to tweet:

@HarryWaisbren:We made it to Koch's house! A phalanx of police btw us, but they can hear our "Money out / Voters in" chant. #KochParty

A handmade banner read, "Koch Kills," the red letters dripping blood. A saxophone played God Bless America. Some carried signs that read Your $50,000 fundraiser = My Student Loan, Your $50,000 Fundraiser = My Retirement.

One sign said, "I don't mind you being rich, I mind you buying the government." The Koch brothers pledged to raise $400 million for this election cycle, more than John McCain spent on his entire presidential campaign in 2008.

A drum kept the hip-hop beat as the protesters chanted, "You got a Koch problem, I got a Koch problem, we got a Koch problem, so let's call this Occupation Rehab."
