Conservative Olson: All Rights Aren’t Up for a Vote
Olson was probably only allowed to speak without being shouted down because of his conservative creds. After all, he was the man who won Bush v.

FL Gov: Worst Ad Yet – McCollum Goes Eighties With Astley Video Takeoff
Should we assume that Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum knows he had to buy the rights for both the song and the video from Rick Astley’s record company?
Speaking without a Teleprompter for Once, Palin Demands That Obama ‘Refudiate’ NAACP Charge That Tea Baggers Are Racists
See what happens when she speaks without a teleprompter? (See here, here and here for more on Palin’s teleprompter addiction.)
As we’ve often said: George Bush in a skirt.
Fox cleaned up the transcript, of course:
