Denver, Colorado (Exclusive to The Adobo Chronicles) – Many people know about Sarah Palin’s recent speech in Denver, ranting for more than 30 minutes about impeaching President Barack Obama. But very few people know that the former vice presidential candidate and Alaska governor was arrested for public intoxication.

Palin was guest speaker at the Western Conservative Summit. Apparently, she flew into Denver the same day and was reportedly anxious about the turbulence on the approach to the Denver airport. A flight attendant said that Palin had ordered several shots of tequila as a way to calm her nerves.

Upon arrival in Denver, she was picked up at the airport by a limousine driver who was to take her to the site of the summit. Along the way, she made one brief stop at a marijuana retail shop a few miles from the airport.

She received a warm welcome from the summit organizers who offered her not one, not two, but three glasses of chardonnay. Then it was time for her to deliver her speech. One observer described her drunken speech as lacking in substance and full of Tea Party talking points that sounded like excepts from a poetry slam competition.

One audience member called the Denver police to complain about Palin’s drunken behavior which led to her arrest for public intoxication. The police report indicated that in addition to her blood alcohol level which was three times the legal limit, she was also high on drugs. That explained her brief stop on her way to her speaking engagement.

Denver police, however, said that she was only charged and arrested for public intoxication and not for being under the influence of controlled substance because, as most everyone knows, the state of Colorado has now legalized the recreational use of marijuana.

Palin was released 5 hours later after posting bail and sobering up.

For our readers who are curious and at the same time patient enough to listen to Palin’s drunken speech, here it is in its entirety:

Manila, Philippines (The Adobo Chronicles) – In less than 24 hours since NoyNoy Aquino delivered his 5th State of the Nation Address (SONA), the beleaguered Philippine president is facing yet another impeachment complaint. This time it is from the Philippine Senate.

The new complaint is based on what senators called “presidential lies” in connection with Aquino’s claim during his televised speech that in less than 24 hours, the government and the Aquino administration were on the ground in Leyte and other Cental Philippine cities and towns, providing assistance and relief to victims of typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda). The strongest typhoon ever to hit landfall left thousands dead and homeless and resulted in billions of pesos in damage to public and private property and infrastructure.

“Aquino violated his presidential oath to tell the truth and nothing but the truth to the Filipino people, and that is an impeachable offense,” the senators said.

A senate hearing on this new impeachment complaint is scheduled later this week. The first witness to testify will be CNN correspondent Anderson Cooper who was among the first among international journalists to report on Haiyan from ground zero. Cooper’s reports and first-hand accounts pointed to the exact opposite of what Aquino said in his SONA.

Here is one of CNN’s broadcasts in which Cooper describes what he saw on the ground in Tacloban, Cebu and other cities.

OPRAH WINFREY VERY NERVOUS ABOUT THE LAUNCH OF SARAH PALIN’S ONLINE NETWORK

July 28, 2014 Pol Pinoy Leave a comment

Los Angeles, California (The Adobo Chronicles) – Oprah Winfrey is the undisputed “Queen of All Media, with a career spanning many decades, and personal accomplishments that would put Donald Trump to shame.

The 60-year old Winfrey is not only a talk show host, but an actress, producer and philanthropist. She is acclaimed as the most influential woman in the world. When Oprah cries, everybody cries! One of her latest career milestones was the establishment of her own television network, OWN, or Oprah Winfrey Network.

The Adobo Chronicles has learned that Winfrey is very nervous about the recent launching of the Sarah Palin Network. “Tired of media filters? Well, so am I,” the former Alaska governor proclaimed Sunday on her Facebook page. “So let’s go rogue and launch our own member-supported channel. “

Palin’s internet video channel is accessible to both fans and critics at a subscription rate of $9.99 a month. The former vice presidential candidate and Alaska governor described her new channel as a “community” where she and viewers can share ideas. “I want to talk to directly to you on our channel on my terms and no need to please the powers that be,” she says, promising to go beyond soundbites and to “cut through the media’s politically correct filter.”

Winfrey told The Adobo Chronicles that she has never been so challenged by anyone in her entire life, much less from a rifle-carrying hockey mom. She is running scared that the launch of the Palin channel will be the beginning of the downfall of the Winfrey media empire. “When you have Americans believing the unintelligible soundbites and wacky opinions from the likes of Palin, America has a big problem,” Winfrey said. “And when such wackery is given a bully pulpit via the ever-expanding world of social media, the threat to America’s sanity becomes even more real.”

Asked if she had any plans to counter Palin’s latest move, the billionaire Winfrey said she will purchase all available subscription spots on the Palin network, then block all content from reaching its intended audience. “In effect, Palin would be broadcasting only to me,” Winfrey added.

Now we know who the real diva is!
