Someone please buy the headline writer at the New York Times a dictionary so he or she could learn that a million dollars in assets does not make a person a "millionaire".

Why doesn't a million dollars in net assets indicate a millionaire? Moreover, in this particular instance, the disclosure forms omit real estate, and since every justice has lived in DC for fourteen or more years, they each almost certainly have hundreds of thousands of dollars of additional real estate equity, probably putting Rehnquist over the top, and cinching the case for the other six. I don't think the Times was off-base here.
