Did you see the press White House press conference a couple days ago where they asked if anyone in the White House had a comment on Becks’ problem, what ever that is, and like me they admitted that with everything going on in the world they didn’t follow Beck. ---

Didn’t ex-Governor Palin recently resign from politics? How is that she is still getting media attention? ---

No, she _clearly_ stated she was staying in politics in her resignation speech. Or switching from forward to third base. Or something. > [@](#): > > "I’ll work for and campaign for those PROUD to be American, and those who are INSPIRED by our ideals and won’t deride them. > > I WILL support others who seek to serve, in or out of office, for the RIGHT reasons, and I don’t care what party they’re in or no party at all.

The article says Glenn Beck has a special-needs child too. I wonder if “being Glenn Beck’s kid” constitutes a “special need”. ---

Can we give Alaska back to Russia now? Please? ---

> [@fuzzypickles](#): > > Can we give Alaska back to Russia now? Please? No, we need the oil. And the moose and bears are kinda cute. We could sell Palin to the Russians, but I don’t think that would put much of a dent in the national debt. ---

C’mon now, you’ve got to admit that besides her nasaly voice and lack of political judgement and her self-righteous arrogance and bent ethics compass that she’s probably a lovely woman, eh? I like her hair. ---

I saw on the news she has missed a 4th event where she was supposed to be a headline speaker. Tickets were four of five hundred dollars. As usual, no one is sure who taked to whom about the speaking engagement and now her camp doesn’t know anything about it… How many times will she do this before people quit booking her? And, does she think she’s some kind of rock star now, what with missing all her big gigs? ---

Commenting on the article itself…I wasn’t aware until just now about Beck’s “pro-cott” to get people to watch his show (I’ll freely admit that it’s because The Daily Show is on hiatus). I find it hilarious that a staunch defender of Free Market Capitalism gets so upset when some businesses in Free Market shift away from him. They’re free, man. Like wild dogs. Let them go. ---
