Join host Steve Green of VodkaPundit.com for a look back this Christmas weekend, at long, strange year there was, and how we got we here:

• Steve looks back at one of the biggest political stories of 2009, the passing of Sen. Ted Kennedy, which has repercussions to this day.
• As she explains to Dr. Helen, blogger and syndicated “advice goddess” Amy Alkon sees rude people — and does something about it.
• PJM Political Producer Ed Driscoll looks back at the politicians, advisors, celebrities and dignitaries who’ve appeared on the show’s first two seasons, with soundbites from:

Senator John McCain.

Former Senator Fred Thompson.

Former Ark. Gov. Mike Huckabee (plus James Lileks on 2007’s brief “Huckabee boomlet!”)

Former Mass. Gov. Mitt Romney.

Former Mayor Rudolph Giuliani.

Steve Westly, eBay, co-founder, California Campaign Co-chair for Obama ’08.

Steve Maviglio, Democratic strategist for Hillary Clinton ‘08.
