I am not one to usually post a vanity; however, I thought there should be a voice to the Dr. Pepper/7-Up corporate folks who've recently released 7-Up commercials featuring Brad Garrett, an "actor/comedian" who made untoward remarks about Palin and her family. Garrett said during the '08 election cycle, "Joan Rivers face has been lifted more times than Bristol Palin's prom dress." Moreover, Garrett called Palin and her family "white trash."
This is outrageous that a major company like Dr. Pepper/7-Up brands would have this stooge peddle their product on television given his sickening comments.
I have been boycotting those two brands ever since I have had money in my pocket. YUCK!
I’m good w/water. Pepsi blew it w/the Zero symbol on the can.
This guy is a real oinker.
I sat next to him on a cross-country flight 20-years ago when he was just another stand-up comic. He couldn’t stop making jokes about everything we talked about.
Lets remember, he’s a comedian.
I think that most of his remarks are just him doing his “schtick”..
Evidently he still has a “thing” for Sarah Palin. His sitcom last week featured a Palin-lookalike as a nasty character. Perhaps he needs to get together with Dave Pervertman and swap fantasies.

I know it really doesn’t make a difference to them; it’s just nice to let them know what they’re doing is not going unnoticed and they do not have us buffaloed.
I just want to know when they are going to bring back Berries & Cream Dr. Pepper. (NOT that diet crud)
I saw Brad Garrett on that Smarter Than a 5th Grader game show. The guy was a total idiot. He probably has the intelligence of a 2nd grader. He had no idea where the country of Jamaica was located, and had to randomly guess the Atlantic Ocean. Sorry, wrong!
