After Palin scored the big coup by joining the FOX news network she decided it was time for a drink.
The latest word is that she will be the key note speaker at the Las Vegas Wine and Liqueur Wholesalers of America convention.

Here are some of his observations about 2009. Just a list of Republican talking points and little else. This is a good example why Republicans deserve to lose in 2010, again. Anyone who thinks that Beck is a journalist or that Cheney is a patriot needs to have his head examined.
Sorry Maureen. I guess we can’t choose our family.
Words from Kevin-
“..by forcing through a government takeover of health care, the auto industry and the banks, the president and his Congressional henchmen have brought us in a time machine to Russia 1917. These massive changes have been done in secret and along bullying, straight party-line votes.”
“President Obama continues life in the H.O.V. lane, fawned over by the press and the crowned heads of Europe. In between apologies, the president should have ..continue reading
Finally an issue that both Democrats and Republicans can agree on. One that both sides disdain equally.
The volume of TV commercials.
Rep. Anna Eshoo form California introduced the Commercial Advertisement Loudness Mitigation Act, or CALM, which mandates that TV commercials be no louder than the programs in which they appear.
Representatives in the House unanimously passed the bill last month and sent it to the Senate for consideration.
