Bristol Palin has been implicated in a rampage in Dane County, Wisconsin. Her latest alleged victim from her appearance on Dancing with the Stars is Steven N. Cowan, 66. Cowan shared the view of millions that Palin was not much of a star and even less of a dancer. So, when she again escaped being voted off the show, Cowan snapped. He grabbed his shotgun and shot his own television. His wife fled after he demanded his handgun (presumably for a tradition coup de grâce she ran and returned with the police.
Cowan held out in this house for 15 hours before surrendering. He is charged with second degree reckless endangerment and use of a dangerous weapon. Bristol Palin remains uncharged at the time of this posting.
I will post the brief youtube clip but I asked that you put away any guns, knives, heavy pans, or any throwing objects:

The gang’s all here … Elaine is hopefully enjoying Fla.

Another TV program I don’t watch…
Me too! Maybe we should expand this poker party idea to cover every night of the week we don’t watch some show…
=================================================
Great idea … we’ll blog while we play!
For effect:
This is inspirational. Now I’m going to start voting for Bristol just to tick off all those so tickoffable. Take it easy for goodness sake. Or Pete’s anyway.

This was in our local paper and it said the guy had been at a bar, came home and had a beer with dinner then he and the wife settled down to watch “Dancing with the Stars”. It all went downhill from there.
Seriously, the guy is bi-polar and his daughter had removed all his handguns prior to this incident since he had threatened his wife before. Guess she should have taken the shotgun, also.

OOps Palins
The Palin’s have cornered reality TV. Sarah Palin’s “Alaska” show broke records for the TLC network. Some say the tea party is calling in to keep Bristol on the show. They are are on the way to the Iowa caucuses with a reality show watching base.
The bullet could have gone thru the wall and killed someone. I would have been scared too if someone was shooting at the TV.
What ever happened that has taken away the free will of changing channels or turning the contraption off? Oh my they really have invaded our minds….and not that I have a lot to spare either…..
Only a moron calls the police.
I have to admit that shooting the TV has crossed my mind when I have heard her mother speak, but who cares about a dancing show enough to ruin their TV?
Everybody’s a critic.
Please!.. “coup de grâce”!!
In French, the final consonant is always mute.
And “gras” means “fat”.
I went with the French spelling but I will convert back to American!
