A call for separation of….sports and state?
Sexy Sarah Palin was invited by the owner of the Philadelphia Flyers to drop the ceremonial first puck at the Flyers’ season opener this weekend.
Watch the video above to see how fans reacted to the lipstick wearing pitbull.
The music seems to be turned up, full blast.
What were they trying to drown out?

Looks like you can lump Hollywood into that pile of crappy, greedy people mooching off of the American taxpayer.
On Saturday, the New York Times reported on the millions of dollars from states that have been going straight to the pockets of Hollywood studios to finance movies via tax breaks.
Hollywood is just as bad as those shady Wall Street finance people!
For example, Louisiana taxpayers funded $27 million of Brad Pitt’s $167 million dollar movie The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. The paper also notes that this is the state’s biggest movie payout to date!
Hollywood producers and studios claim that the state tax breaks allow them to keep entertainment jobs in the U.S. and create jobs.
But, au contraire!
The report points to the case of a straight-to-DVD Wesley Snipes and Cybil Shepherd-starring picture called Hard Luck filmed in the state of Rhode Island.
The seaside state gave Hard Luck $2.65 million in tax breaks, but Rhode Islander’s only netted $1.9 million in return.
Why don’t the politically ‘active’ stars take on their own greedy industry.
Ahem, Brad?
Did that Benjamin Buttons movie generate more than $27 million in revenues for Louisiana?

John McCain is taking a page out of the Hollywood TV playbook!
When your ratings are slipping, schedule a stunt to give ‘em a jolt!
Well, looks like Senator McCain is doing just that.
He’s scheduled to appear on the David Letterman show on Thursday to likely plead mea culpa for dissing Dave a few weeks ago to ’save’ the economy for Katie Couric.
Set your DVR’s y’all!
We bet there’ll be lots of funny stuff!
