Sound like American wines. Should we have served juice?

The word REVOLUTION is starting to make more sense as the days go on. Our current crop of leaders, both financially and politically, are morally and ethically challenged, to put it lightly.

Why not?
For the rest of us, if we lack bread, we shall merely “eat cake”.
No problem.

They’re “financially challenged?”

Shafer Cabernet Hillside Select 2003, a wine that sells at $499 on Wine.com. Which for Mrs. Lurkin and I would pay for a -- a month's worth of groceries.

Given its CNN and they hate America and hate Bush, it should read;
Sounds like American wines whine.

my brother makes decent, and reasonably priced, wine for far less.

I don’t see why this is any different from the scum at AIG taking their expensive “offsite conferences” at some spa, as they did recently, just after they were bailed out with our tax money. Everyone was in an uproar about it, and rightly so.
Expect more of this. This is what one world government is all about: you get to live marginally above poverty as they get to dine on duck and fine wine.

To wash it all down, world leaders will be served Shafer Cabernet Hillside Select 2003, a wine that sells at $499 on Wine.com. Not a bad price if you get the party barrel of it for that price.
I searched wine.com and they didn't have any, so I don't know where the $499 price came from.

The exceedingly pricey wine may seem a bit peculiar given leaders are in Washington to discuss a possible world financial meltdown, but Sally McDonough, a spokeswoman for Laura Bush, said it was the most appropriate wine that we had in the White House wine cellar for such a gathering. Empty the wine cellar and tear the O's off the keyboards when you leave.

Wine, 2003.
President Bush was sworn in as President on January 20, 2001, so the wine didn’t just happen to be setting in the wine cellar when he arrived.

We thawed 3 nice rainbow trout we caught on the San Juan river below the Navajo Lake Dam in NM a while back and grilled em today. A little lemon, home brewed beer & sun tea, fried zucchini & parsnips, green beans and sourdough bread with garlic butter. Chased that with a bowl of hot apple cobbler and a dollop of homemade vanilla ice cream.
No polidiots were invited.....
